Cake Flower Arranging

A huge welcome to our upskill workshops?

What is an upskill workshop you may be asking yourself? Great question!

Up until now we have only offered workshops that focused heavily on the ‘basics’ of decorating a cake. The ‘basics’ being; filling, stacking, doweling and applying the perfect coat of buttercream. These works run anywhere from 4-7 hours and cost between $250-$450. They are an in-depth workshop aimed at students wanting to learn the fundamentals. Great for the beginner caker, or those just wanting to refine their skills.

Now enter the Upskill Workshops. You’ve done a workshops with us or you just know the basics of decorating a cake to the frosted cake stage. You want to expand your knowledge and upskill without sitting through (and paying) for information you already know. Think of these workshops as a cake decorating power class. Shorter in length (and price) and you get to absorb the information you want to grow and apply to your cakey repertoire.

In this flower arranging workshop we will be providing you will all the information you ever wanted to know about wiring and arranging flowers to cakes. All of your questions around flower arranging (to cakes) will be answered. What flowers are safe to use? What equipment do I need? How do I attach flowers to my cake?

Just because we know you love cake and you of course need a cake in class to practice your skills on. You will be filling and stacking a 5inch cake in class, to work your magic on. We will then be guiding you through the process of selecting the perfect blooms, cleaning, wiring and taping ready for us to collectively as a class arrange to our individual cakes. The best part? You get to take this cake home to devour with the fam (or by yourself on the couch). No judgement here!

What you will learn:

• Wiring, taping and arranging flowers (What flowers to use and those to avoid)
• Piping frosting fillings and stacking cakes

Included:

• White Chocolate mud cake Recipe
• Buttercream Recipe
• The fully decorate cake you made in the class- 5inch round

PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A HANDS ON, IN-PERSON CLASS ONLY (NOT ONLINE). WE ARE LOCATED AT- 23/46 GRAINGERS ROAD, WEST FOOTSCRAY, MELBOURNE, VICTORIA
