WORKSHOP FOCUS:

-Let me dish out all the dough on COOKIE DOUGH! Though I never took Chem For Living, I’ll be the first to admit I was super jealous of those who did. I love the science behind baking. Even more, I love helping others understand why it’s all so important – in normal, creative minded, artist baker lingo! So, let me walk you through how to make dough that will hold its shape, have the perfect caramelization, and still be light and moist! (this will be a talked through instruction with videos and photos for interaction, you will not personally be making dough in the class)
-Have you ever used royal icing that just will not cooperate? The thought of butter bleed, craters and the dreaded color bleed can leave even seasoned cookiers up all night in worry. Well, NO MORE! I want to take you through step by step for making icing that is sure not to flop!(this will be a talked through instruction with videos and photos for interaction, you will not personally be making icing in the class)
-Mixing icing to the perfect consistency is an art form all in its own. I want to show you how to mix for fine lines, the perfect poof, and a smooth flood…all while finding that perfect color to bring your cookies to life!
-After all that, I’ve created some super fun holiday themed cookies to show off all your hard work! These cookies will leave people chatting about your skills long after the holidays are over!
