Turn a plain mini cake into a buttercream masterpiece you'll be proud to show off! Join Chef Yolanda for a fun, beginner-friendly cake decorating workshop where you'll learn the techniques behind decorating your own custom creation. While most baking classes keep you busy at the oven, this one is all about the fun part -- the frosting.
You'll start with the fundamentals, leveling your cake and laying down an even crumb coat before smoothing on a flawless buttercream finish. From there, it's time to master piping with buttercream frosting as you practice borders, rosettes and decorative textures. Along the way, Chef Yolanda will share her tips for clean finishes and beautiful designs. You'll leave with your own custom-decorated mini cake, ready to show off and enjoy.
Hunting for things to do in Washington, D.C., that are a little sweeter than usual? This Thursday evening session makes a memorable date night with a generous helping of creativity.
