  • Birthday Cake

    It was a lot of fun but I was disappointed that we didn't actually bake the cake. It was just a cake layering class.

    I enjoyed the class and am very happy I did it! The only reason I dinged it a star is because they dont tell you ahead of time how basic of a class it is and that some things are already pre-made, which was a little disappointing to think you were getting the full A-Z experience and not. Very helpful otherwise and learned alot, cake came out amazing:)

  • Birthday Cake

    You don't bake a cake, You just assemble a cake. It's a really sugary cake too.
