We've been having a great time in our weekly cupcake classes. The students have been doing a fantastic job and it's been a pleasure meeting everyone. Our first week's class included piping flowers on cupcakes. Students learned to prepare piping bags with couplers and tips and fill them with icing. They practiced piping Mums, Pansies, Sunflowers and Zinnia. Each student went home with their own little flower garden!
Our second week's class project included coloring icing and piping designs on cupcakes. The Thursday evening and Saturday morning classes learned how to pipe swirls, ruffles, pulled peaks and a basketweave design. Everyone had a great time deciding which colors they wanted to use for their designs and which sprinkles and toppers to use to accent their finished cupcake. Everyone had great ideas for making their own cupcakes special.
Next week's classes with Jodi McMillan should be exciting and everyone is looking forward to taking home their own cupcake bouquet of roses, hydrangeas and sunflowers. I will be out of town next weekend to attend the Cove Country Cake Show and the western PA Day of Sharing in Bedford, PA so I'll miss Saturday morning's class. But, I will be at Thursday evening's class and hope to see a nice turnout. Right now we still have four available seats, so don't miss this opportunity to bring home a bouquet!
