Logical, realistic tips plus a step-by-step guide, that you can use at your decorating level.

It’s a system that will work every time, to streamline your cake decorating and keep it fun.

When I first started learning about cake decorating, I found that I couldn’t get everything I needed to get started, all in one place.

Sometimes things were just over-complicated or beyond my level.

Sometimes they just weren’t practical.

I wanted logical, realistic tips plus a step-by-step guide that I could use at my beginner level.

If you’re like me, you like systems and I wanted a system that would work every time, so I could streamline my cake decorating and keep it fun. Because that’s what you want it to be…fun…not stressful.

Do you want to put an end to aggravation and frustration when all you want to do is create something special for a loved one’s birthday party?

I know it’s aggravating to spend so much time on a cake, only to have it turn out completely different than you intended or spending money on tons of cake decorating supplies that you really don’t need in order to make a beautiful cake.

This course combines all of my best tips and methods for beginner cake decorating all in one handy spot.

No more searching around online for each cake problem you run into.

You’ll learn my best tips for finally putting an end to:

• Blow outs in your buttercream (air bubbles forming under your icing).
• Icing ridges around your cake.
• Leaning cakes.
• Buttercream you can’t get smooth.
• Cakes that just don’t look professional.

We’ll go through the steps from the very early stages with tips for baking, cake recipes, buttercream recipes and on to the fun part…buttercream decorating techniques.

We’ll talk about:

• Myths and Tips for Baking
• How to Properly Layer and Fill your Cakes
• How to Properly Prepare your Cake for Buttercream

You’ll get downloadable printables like recipes, cheat sheets, checklists and planning sheets.
