Description

Do you watch cookie decorating videos and wish you could make cookies like that too? Wondering what tools you need to do it? Intimidated by royal icing and how to use it? Then this class is for you! Amalea was once you! She loved to bake and make tasty treats for her family. There was just one problem - her stuff was ugly. Like, really ugly. After a few years of amateur attempts she finally decided to take a bunch of classes and turn her baked goods from "ick" to "oooohh!" And now she'll help you do it too! In this 90 minute class we will decorate a half dozen cookies in 3 Christmas designs. Amalea will provide expert instruction and tips so you can decorate stunning cookies! All the baking, mixing, bagging (and clean up!) is already done, so you get to focus on the fun. Click here watch a video of the space and hear from past attendees!
