Recent reviews of Halloween Buttercream Cake Decorating Class

  • 4/5 from Natisha Romain, attended Oct 2026: This was a fun class that incorporated techniques that anyone could do anywhere. You wouldn’t need a lot to do what we did! She walked around a lot & actively engaged with folks. Sometimes being very hands on. One way to improve this is knowing the size of the cake and being given options for the cake type and size. I would also recommend her writing out a script of what she would say and exactly how she’d teach the class.
