Hello,

I'm wondering if anyone knows of any cake decorating classes taking place during the month of November or early Dec. I live on the East coast of Canada and can travel anywhere in North America (only limiting it to that due to travel times).

I have basic butter cream and fondant skills and would like to learn more about making flowers (butter cream, royal and fondant) as well as fondant figures and using stencils. I've done all of this but need to improve my skills icon_wink.gif

My gallery is pretty representative of my skill level icon_wink.gif

Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I had found McCalls but couldn't find any 'individual' classes - looked like it was all part of a certificate program and couldn't see any descriptions of individual classes or if they were offered separately????

The Bonnie Gordon ones look like what I want but all the ones i want have prerequisites that aren't in the same time frame ;( If I travel it will be for a week so I need/want all the classes to be relatively back-to-back.... and I feel like i've already gone beyond some of those basics (but the sessions do say 'or equivalent' so I guess I need to contact them and cross my fingers!!!!

Thanks!

After spending some time figuring out dates and classes I called and spoke to a someone at Bonnie Gordon's - turns out the one week course I wanted is not going to be offered - they are going to stop offering one week courses and instead only offer 6 week courses or weekend classes icon_sad.gif

so right when I found something it's not going to happen icon_sad.gif

I also checked McCall's and most seem like one day sessions on days that are spread apart so I can't make that work either... icon_sad.gif

hmmmm....
