I have never heard of these before. I just looked at the clips on the site and from what I saw it looks like an extended Wilton class. I guess I will have to see the entire thing to tell.

The wilton classes are a lot cheaper

I have been contemplating these videos for several months now. I have yet to take the plunge and am not sure I will. I have never met anyone that has used them yet, so I don't want to spend the money and not be happy with the results.

I purchased both video's. They had some helpful tips and I'm a addict when it comes to collecting anything on cake decorating, however I wouldn't say they were worth the money. Mostly it was all information you could get for free off CakeCentral and should have had more videos with much more professional tips. If you were a complete novice at decorating and making cakes they are probably a good starting point.

I totally agree with robin5568. Personally I don't think they're worth the money.

I get the emails and in the emails sometimes they give you a free couple of second sneak peeks. I was thinking about buying these...hmmm...

They're not terrible, but almost everything on there I've already seen or read about since joining CC and taking 1 Wilton class! I would save your money for other cake decorating goodies.

I bought them both before I found CC! Wish I hadn't spent the $$. I thought the videos would be more comprehensive than the ones you can view before you buy, but they weren't. Agree with robin5568 too.

I haven't been back on their site since the first week I bought the videos.

I just watch the clips....I dont think its worth buying the videos if took wilton classes. If you are just going to strat new it will be a good help...some of the clips they put there are nice.

Hi: When the videos came out I purchased the Video II since I felt the Video I was for people who had never taken any classes...They are a good reference. I have purchased all of the cookiesmadeasy and I love them. I will continue to purchase the videos. I can't speak for anyone but myself. That's why we are all unique. What someone may like someone else will not. I, myself enjoy the videos and wll continue to purchase them. Vicki0052
