Re: all this talk about cake decorating classes.......

You also have to bake cakes and the make the icing after the first week. It's a lot of fun and IMHO worth every penny.

Re: all this talk about cake decorating classes.......

how much is it?

Re: all this talk about cake decorating classes.......

Here is information that I wrote on another thread and also what I sent to some ladies who have Fm'd me.

The classes are fun, and are about 2 hours each 4 classes per course (8 hours total).
I take my classes at The Micheals in Riverhead. They have the classes at most Micheals, the times of the classes vary so it is best to check with the store that you are going to be looking into going to.

In Course 1, for classes 2,3 and 4 of you bring a home made cake with you.. Most of the decorating (besides basic icing) you will do at the class.

I kept all my receipts from Course 1 and including the Class fee, Course 1 Kit, and various items for the class (cake mix, icing supplies, and other things to help with the cake) It cost me $100.- for the 4 weeks total. I also used the 40% or 50% off coupons on almost everything.

I bought a lot of extra's, like a new cake carrier, all the icing colors, and extra couplers, icing bags, etc.. they have all been well used though.

Let me know if there is any thing else I can anwer for you, feel free to FM.
I am currently in Course 2 class 2 this weekend (4/19).
