This is a fun activity in Buckingham, Milton Keynes

Whether you're keen to get that crisp edge on your cakes, or want to know how to smooth out your buttercream effectively, our 6-inch cake decorating masterclass is for you!

If you fancy a shot at being star baker, join patissier Sophie and her team at a brand new bake school in Buckingham for a four-hour workshop in all things cake decorating. You'll spend the day in a beautiful kitchen, learning everything you need to know to give your sponge cakes a spectacular finish!

You'll be greeted on arrival with a choice of tea or coffee and a decadent Pure Patisserie macaron, before strapping on those aprons and getting stuck in. With demonstrations throughout the class at each stage, you'll learn:
- How to assemble a three-layer vanilla sponge cake
- How to make our silky smooth American buttercream
- Icing and finishing a 6-inch sponge cake
- How to achieve a sharp edge or rough edge effect
- Different ways to use gold leaf as decoration
- How to fill and decorate macarons
- Methods of decorating with dried flowers

Halfway through the cake decorating workshop, you'll stop for a delicious lunch provided by Cornwall Place Kitchen in Buckingham. Essential for keeping those energy levels up!

With a maximum of six people per class, there's plenty of one-on-one teaching and the opportunity to ask questions. Whether you're a buttercream beginner or you've got experience with the piping bag, you'll be in safe hands!

At the end of the workshop, you'll leave with a fully decorated 6-inch sponge cake, and all the recipes to try at home – so you can continue to wow your friends and family with your impressive new cake decorating skills!

The class was fun.Sophie teaches well. She makes it so easy and focuses on you learning, and doing it yourself, with her support and guidance. Her kitchen is clean which serves as a bonus for me. I felt like I had met her before and was really relaxed during the entire lesson. Her staff was also kind and supportive as well. You can ask Sophie any questions, she was happy to answer. As it was a girlie class, we sure had a lot of girlie talking and laughter along the way. I will surely be back Thanks Sophie I had so much fun learning as the atmosphere was friendly, diverse and inclusive. Keep it up.

I attended a buttercream workshop at the end of Jan at Sophie's Pure Patisserie store - Absolutely INCREDIBLE day and can't recommend enough!! The lovely Sophie and her colleague Maddie were so informative and helpful, you can see the passion in the work they do. I learnt so many good tips and tricks, already keeping an eye out on the next one! I can't quite believe I made this for the first time. If you're looking for a super fun, creative workshop, look no further!
