  • Cake Decorating (Frosting and Butter Cream)

    The class was great! Erin was thorough and open to questions, which I truly appreciate. I suggest having larger cake boards and a bit more time to practice the different styles, but overall, the instructor was so, so helpful. The cake also tasted great! I brought it home for my bday and everyone enjoyed it!
  • Cake Decorating (Frosting and Butter Cream)

    I had the BEST time at Aterlier Sucre. I have taken a few of their classes and was excited to try the new cake decorating class. Jennifer was an amazing instructor and the class was well-structured and easy to book. I would definitely recommend.
  • Cake Decorating (Frosting and Butter Cream)

    The instructor did a great job. She was thorough in her explanation and demonstration of technique. She interacted with everyone in the class making sure we understood what needed to be done. Would definitely take another class with this instructor.
  • Cake Decorating (Frosting and Butter Cream)

    An awesome experience. The course facilitator was very friendly and knowledgeable and great at coaching the group on cake decorating as well as giving individual advice and tips. I went with my girlfriend as a surprise date and she loved it too. Small intimate class, and chance to interact with other participants too if you wanted to. Free coffee also! If anything could be improved - maybe a little more variety in cake bases and decoration options. But it didn't need that to make it an awesome time!
  • Cake Decorating (Frosting and Butter Cream)

    I thought it was good. I think I was hoping to learn more technical decoration techniques. for example, when showing the piping equipment, getting people to practice specific actions before tackling the cake would have been fun. i think the only thing i really left with was a cake and the knowledge of the crumb layer, just having even a basic level of technique for pipe that we ran through and were guided on would have given people something to take home with them and practice. overall a fun morning, just missing that technical hook for me
