Class date & time: Saturday January 18 from 11am - 2:30pm.
Join Corianne of Cookie Couture for this hands on workshop where you'll get all of the benefits of a Royal Icing 101, plus a beginner decorating class! Refreshments and snacks are included for this fun afternoon of all things decorating. If you are looking for the perfect place to start or an opportunity to refine your skills, this is it!
Techniques and concepts covered:
- Overview and demo of making Corianne's signature royal icing recipe.
- How to colour royal icing to the perfect shade.
- How to achieve the 3 primary decorating consistencies, perfectly every time - piping for borders, flood for filling and thick for structured pieces.
- How to fill and use tipless piping bags with with and without piping tips.
- How to decorate a 4 piece Winter themed cookie set with step by step demonstrations and guidance.
- How to work with luster dust and edible glitter.
- Overviews on storage, packaging and further troubleshooting for common issues.
Participants will leave with their set of decorated cookies, plus all remaining icing that they can use for further practice. They will also receive a folder with the recipe and all of the information gone over in the class, as well as 20% off of any purchases at our supply shop next door the day of class!
