In this 2-day cake intensive, kids ages 10-14 will learn the step by step process of making and designing exquisite buttercream layer cakes. Though some elements will be made in small groups, this is an extremely hands-on class that any baking obsessed kid is sure to love. Recipe and note packets are included so they can be sure not to miss a single detail, and each day students will take home something that they made.

We'll cover the following culinary techniques: mise en place, creaming method, gastronomic emulsions, flavoring with fats and acids, coloring buttercream, stacking/filling/covering a cake, piping techniques, and principles of design.
