Learn to Bake and Decorate a Cake

Explore some new baking and cake decorating skills at home with this online class.



4 hours Class size 6 to 99     label £55

Learn how to decorate a celebration cake with a smooth buttercream finish and your own gorgeously piped buttercream decorative elements at this cake decorating class!

This class focuses on teaching you how to cover a lovely three-layered cake with buttercream, using a Victoria Sponge cake. You will have already made your sponge cakes in advance of the class.

During this cake decorating class, you will learn the trade secrets on how to fill and stack three layers of sponge, and then create a smooth finish on the outside of your cake with the perfect consistency of buttercream. Once you've mastered this, you'll be taught how to finish off your cake, learning how to decorate it with a variety of piping nozzles.

You'll be taken through the whole cake decorating process by an expert teacher who will give you plenty of support to gain new decorating abilities. The skills you learn will help you create your own celebration cakes again and again at home, for birthdays, anniversaries and other special occasions.

By the end of your class, you'll be ready to share your freshly decorated cake with friends and family.

Hi, I'm Caroline Bailey, the founder, award winning wedding cake designer and heart and soul behind Hunkington House Kitchen.

My baking love started at an early age, all thanks to my amazing Mum and Nan, who were fantastic in the kitchen, always creating something delicious. Learning from them at an early age sparked a passion that has led me on a long path to where I am now.

This baking journey has been full of excitement from baking with John Whaite, cooking with Monica Galetti, achieving third place in the Great Shropshire Bake Off and also getting through to the final 70 applicants for the Great British Bake Off. Even though I didn’t get selected for the show it gave me the confidence and drive to pursue my dream career in baking.

Having spent years perfecting my baking skills attending classes, creating the most amazing cakes for weddings and other special occasions I have taken my love and passion, helping people to create and bake deliciousness, through fun interactive experiences.

The dream baking experience for me is where people feel at ease, it's interactive and you get to learn in a fun and engaging way. So in a nutshell that's what I deliver.

It is the best job to have when you get to see first hand how proud people are of their creations and their very own baking delights, even the ones who started nervous. My aim is to create a memorable experience for everyone to enjoy and I want my classes to ooze that specialness too.

Yes I'm a little bit obsessed with all the baking delights you can create yourself, so if I can spark memories to treasure, just like the ones I hold dearly then I'm doing it right! Whether it's an experience for a public class, a private group or 1-2-1, the baking fun is waiting to be explored.

Love Caroline xxx
