I have had such a great day! Today was the first of four days in the class Collete's Cakes. She is wonderful! I have seen posts of people saying she isn't a good teacher and wasn't very nice, but I love her. The class is wonderful. She is very hands on and extremely friendly. I can't wait for tomorow. If any of you have the chance to attend this class, I totally recommend it!  |

I'm so excited to see this post! I just made a post on the same topic. I'm glad to hear that you are enjoying her class, as I have enrolled for one in March.
Where are you taking her class, and what topics are you covering??
ENJOY!! I'd love to see pics, as well!!

Wow!!!  Thank you so much! I feel like I'm just starting to learn and I have so far to go. i've only taken wilton classes so this is a big step for me
We made some cool flowers today. We will be making some more tomorrow. Then we will learn how to color them diffrent ways. After that we are going to be doing brush embrodery, stringwork, embossing, anf some more fondant stuff. Then we get to make a three tier dummy.
I know she offers this class at wilton, but I'm taking it at the Notter School in Orlando, FL. |

He is amazing! His assistant brought in two kinds of chocolate hearts for us to try today. They were devine! I don't know if I could do the sugar art class though. It looks way out of my league.
nglez09, I think she's a great teacher. She answered questions and helped us all along the way. Nick lodge does teach here too, along with others. |

One of the girls in class told her she was on food network last night. She was like, Really? It was funny. She said every time she turned it to food network, it was on Paula Dean. |

Doesn't Nick Lodge teach there as well? They also have some really cool classes w/ Chef Stephane Glacier and other MOF's. Lucky.
