Private & In-Home Classes/Parties!
* Now booking into July and beyond.
Private Classes make great gifts! Either book now, or give a gift card and have the recipient book with me later.
Host an Private Class in the comfort of your own home or perhaps a community hall or work space. A fantastic way to get together with family, friends, or co-workers! Please keep in mind when inviting guests, each guest needs to sit comfortably at a table with plenty of room for decorating tools, a cake or cupcakes with the boxes, turntable, decorating bags and other tools.
Classes are relaxed and fun, but I do teach skills and techniques so it is more than just swirling frosting randomly onto a cake or cupcake. We do detailed sugar art masterpieces! Because of the detailed skills and techniques taught, it is recommended that ages 8-12 be accompanied by an adult to help assist them. Decorator's icing can be stiff and controlling the pressure applied to the decorating bag can be difficult.
Baked cakes or cupcakes, decorator's buttercream icing, and all the supplies needed for each person to decorate are brought to the event by Instructor Sue. You will have use of the decorating tools and an apron during class.
Classes go for approximately 2 hours with step-by-step instructions on decorating the design of your choice. Everyone in the class will decorate the same design because the colored icing and decorating tips for that chosen design will be prepared and brought to the class, but individual creativity with the chosen design is certainly encouraged.
You may want to invite your guests to arrive at least 1/2 hr before the class start time so they can settle in and socialize before the class starts.
You will have use of the decorating tools and bags and tips during class, then they will be collected at the end of class. That way you get to try the decorating tools, "try before you buy," on your own. I do not sell any decorating tools.
~ I will travel, but depending on your location a small travel fee will be charged if outside the Charlton, Massachusetts local area (Central MA). All charges will be determined upfront before the class.
Choose either a cake decorating class or cupcake class. Listed below are popular options, but I am flexible and can adjust the class to your needs.
Please contact Sue with any questions or to book a date (Contact info)
Once a date is scheduled you can decide on a cake or cupcake class and what design or techniques you are interested in learning. Then an online signup/payment link will be created for you to share with your guests so they can sign up individually, or if you prefer, a total invoice can be sent to the host instead.
Payment is requested before supplies are prepared, usually 1 week prior to the class.
Please inform Instructor Sue of any food allergy concerns (Kitchen used to prepare for classes has nut and peanut products present)
