Course overview
The course is divided into six modules covering techniques as basic as frosting a cake with smooth frosting, to creating colourful texture, beautiful flowers, metallic accents and jaw-dropping cake toppers. Here's a quick breakdown of what's included and you can find the full curriculum below.
Start with The Basics
Build a solid foundation in Module 1 of the course before moving on to more elaborate cake decorating techniques. Learn how to check the consistency of your frosting, how to use piping bags, how to colour frosting, and how to achieve perfectly smooth frosting on your cakes. I also include the recipe for my 4 Minute Buttercream!
Frosting Techniques and Decorative Details
Learn 14 frosting techniques including ombre, watercolour, stripes, and various textured frostings. Then move on to 14 techniques for decorative details including drips, mosaics, metallics, homemade stencils, and LOTS of water to create textures and floral designs.
Borders, Cake Toppers, and Writing on Cakes
Create finishing touches with borders around the top and bottom of cakes and then add height, colour, and texture with homemade cake toppers made with chocolate, sugar, sprinkles, buttercream, and more! Finally, learn four techniques to write on cakes with beautiful and easy-to-read fonts.
