YOUR DAY, YOUR WAY
A day devoted
to your cake skills.
Both options run from 10am to 3:30pm, with a light lunch provided, in Stoke Holy Cross, Norfolk.
I offer a limited number of tuition days during my low season, November to May. Get in touch to discuss your goals and available dates.
MAKE IT PERSONAL
What would you
love to learn?
Perhaps you want smoother buttercream, more confidence with colour, or help developing your cake designs. Tell me what you are working towards and we can discuss a day that suits you.
I can also tailor tuition around baking or cake construction. If you are looking for cake baking classes or a particular technique, mention it in your enquiry so we can agree the focus and practical arrangements before you book.
The standard day above focuses on decorating a single-tier cake; baking and other specialist topics are arranged individually.
LEARN WITH BETH
Practical skills.
A personal approach.
I design and make bespoke buttercream wedding and celebration cakes. In my private cake decorating workshops, I share the techniques behind my work in a relaxed, no-pressure setting.
There is time to ask questions, talk through your ideas and focus on what you want to improve. Tell me about your experience when you enquire, whether you bake at home or already make cakes for customers.
