Winter Cookie Decorating Class

Decorate festive winter cookies in NYC and learn icing techniques in a fun hands-on class!



2 hours Location Midtown West Class size 16 to 34 guests   $65 - $89 ($65 for Public class; $89 for Private class)

Freshly baked gingerbread, colorful icing, and a dash of holiday cheer -- nothing says cozy season like creating your own Christmas cookies! In this cookie decorating class in NYC, you’ll learn how to decorate cookies step by step while sipping on festive vibes and getting inspired with clever Christmas cookie decorating ideas. Whether you’re hunting for fun things to do in NYC, planning unique date ideas, or just want a playful break from the holiday rush, this class is the perfect treat.
Your instructor will show you how to make royal icing from scratch, then guide you through easy-to-learn techniques like piping, flooding, and wet-on-wet designs. You’ll decorate six pre-baked cookies (gingerbread men, mittens, and snowflakes), each one a tiny canvas for your creativity! Don’t worry if you’ve never picked up a piping bag -- this workshop is designed to be beginner-friendly, supportive, and seriously fun. You’ll leave knowing how to decorate cookies with confidence, plus a little artistic flair you didn’t know you had.
By the end, you’ll have a box of beautiful holiday cookies to gift, share, or -- let’s be honest -- enjoy all to yourself. Sweet, social, and oh-so-memorable, this cookie decorating class is NYC holiday magic baked fresh!
