Sweater Weather: The Art of Buttercream Piping

Wrap yourself in the cozy charm of winter as you learn to create a beautiful cake inspired by the texture and warmth of your favourite knitted sweater!

In this creative class, we'll transform a delicious Raspberry White Chocolate cake into a winter-inspired showpiece using buttercream piping techniques to recreate the beautiful patterns of knitted fabric. We'll add a playful touch with pretty red bows, cranberries, seasonal greenery and adorable candy cane swirls to complete the design.

We'll begin with a crumb-coated cake ready for smoothing. Amanda will guide you through creating a velvety buttercream finish before teaching you the piping techniques used to create the knitted pattern. You'll learn how to achieve beautiful texture and dimension with buttercream, building your confidence as you bring your design to life.

Once your sweater design is complete, it's time for the finishing touches! We'll show you how to arrange your decorations to create a charming, balanced design with just the right amount of winter whimsy.

You'll leave with your own 5-inch, four-layer Raspberry White Chocolate cake, carefully boxed and ready to enjoy. This tall cake serves 10–12 generous slices, making it perfect for sharing with family and friends. Enjoy it right away, or learn how to properly wrap and freeze your cake to keep it fresh and beautiful for a special occasion.

Whether you're looking to expand your decorating skills or simply enjoy a little creative time in our studio, this class is a wonderful way to embrace the cozy side of winter.

All cakes, buttercream, decorating supplies and materials are provided, along with delicious treats and tea to enjoy during class.
