Are There Any Cc Decorators In The Hampton Roads Area (Va)
Decorating By mommie917 Updated 4 Jul 2014 , 1:30am by Gateaux Bakery
Just wondering if there are any cake decorators that visit this site and live in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia? If so, do you know of any good decorating classes around here? I know that Michaels, Wine and Cake Hobbies, and Party cakes and Things offers them but they seem to be on a basic skill level. I'm looking for something more advanced. Thank you in advance for reading.
Im in Newport News. There is a cake shop off Warwick Blvd. called Creative Touch. They offer classes all the time. The girl that teaches them is great. She always gives direction outside of the standard Wilton. But what do you mean what by more advanced?
15439 Warwick Blvd # D
Newport News, VA 23608-1577
(757) 886-9600

I live in Va Beach and would love to know too! I would love to learn pastry work on the Vincent Pilon level but that probably requires Le Cordon Bleu...
I'm in Suffolk! I haven't taken any classes yet, but I'd love to take some on sugar flowers. Most of the ones I have seen require other courses first. Any recommendations?
I'm in Va Beach and I've never taken classes but the ladies at Party Cakes N' Things are really friendly. I've been into Wine and Cake Hobbies a few times, but I always feel like I'm walking into my grandma's attic when I go there. Kinda creeps me out.
Are any of you planning on going to the NOVA cake show?
Steven Ciccone is a great sugar artist and works at Wine and Cake. If you aren't going to the NCACS show, try going to the Masters cake gig that week at the Sheraton. There is also going to be a convention for ICES in North Carolina in August. Most decorators here that do special work went out of town to take classes or learned from books, dvds, and this site.
I live in Norfolk and have been wanting to take more advanced courses too. Wine and Cake does offer other courses away from the Wilton Method but they are really expensive. I think one of them was like $750!! Wine and Cake looks really old school inside but thats because it is. It's been there for many many yeras. I go there every week for my supplies. Once you go there enough it doesn't seem so "granny" anymore 
I love that place!! They always have whatever I need. But like I said, they do offer other courses. I'm sure if you call them or email them they will give you info! HTH!
Not sure what all you're looking to do, but Ginger of http://theicingonthecake-ginger.blogspot.com/ also teaches Wilton classes, but she teaches more than the basics. You can check her out and see what other classes she's willing to teach.
She used to come on this site alot.

I go in there weekly also. They are always helpful when I go in. No, they aren't a huge smiling group of people, but neither am I. They are very knowledgeable there because they have decorated cakes for years and usually will find someone who knows the answer if one of them doesn't.

Good evening,
I am an advanced cake decorator and I own a French Patisserie.
I have seriously considered offering cake decorating in my store. We do sugar, chocolate, fondant and gum paste designs.
We have decorators that have graduated from Johnson & Wales, and Chicago Institute of French Pastry. I need feedback from you guys.
How many people would be interested in our potential class in virginia beach?
