Im starting my 1st cake decorating class tomorrow, but im going to start late because they already started the class 3 weeks ago!! So thats been 3 classes missed! I dont know if theyre giving a wilton class because is not at any michael store or anything is a place call " La casa de la Cultura" but theyre using the wiltons kits!!
Can anyone tell me what if probably the things that most people to on their first 3 classes!!! I dont wanna be lost tomorrow!!!
I'm not sure what your class is doing, because I am in one of the Micheals classes (course 1 also) but there are only 4 classes total. So by the fourth class you would have missed almost everything!
How long is your class?
If you do decide to go ... did you get the course 1 book it has a list of things you need like buttercream and different tips.... maybe they will let you retake the class si you can get all 4 classes in?
I'm a Wilton instructor and I have to say if they teach the Wilton method then you've missed 90? of Course One. The last class is pretty much the rose and then decorating your final cake. I'm surprised Wilton is letting them do that, which makes me wonder if it truly is Wilton, even though they are using the kit.
If they are using the wilton course guidlines, I wouldn;t bother going for the last class. The last class is finishing the rose and decorating your cake using the skills you learned the other 3 nights. Michaels offers a course 1 every month you can call wilton and ask who else in your area gives classes. good luck.
Here is a rundown on what you missed.
the first night the teacher demos how to make buttercream icing. (in wiltons class they ask for you to make a specific recipe) Then the teacher demos how to torte and fill and then ice a cake. Then she will take you to the cake isle and show you what you need to buy. Keep in mind that Michaels and wilton make their money form this part of the class. Then you learn how to prepare and fill 3 types of bags. you will learn pressure control and positioning of the bag. How to color the icing and any other questions you may have.
week 2 :
you will come with a cake iced. and other icing ready to learn and practice how to make stars, curved line, zig zag, writting, outlining, the base of the rose and pattern transfer.
week 3
cake iced and ready to practice more.
you will learn the canter of the rose, shell borders, (some people teach figure piping, hearts and fruit)clowns, drop flowers.
week 4 : your final cake. Iced and ready to go. you will learn the rose, sweet peas, bows, leaves and vinesthen you will make your cake.
Im pretty sure, its not wilton but they use wilton stuff. But she told me that im going to get the last 2 classes because here the lady gives 5 weeks! and is only going to cost me $15 for the 2 days and $30 that was what I paid for my kit in a store! and theres no Michaels close to me, the closest one is 2 and 1/2 hours! is San Antonio, TX or 3 hours in Laredo TX.
Im going to call to try to talk to the teacher to see what she says because I didnt talk to her, I talk with another teacher of cake decorating there!!
Basically I lost everything that I need! ![]()
Im so sad right now, and then if a dont do it, I need to wait that they have 7 girls so that they do the class again!!
Thank you girls
