This class left a bad taste in my mouth. I had prepaid spot reserved. My subway line was having issues so I arrived a little late, about 10 minutes. I admit that arriving late isn't great, but they ended up giving away my spot prior to my arrival! I got no call, and since I already paid, they should not have given it away. When I arrived, the teacher became flustered. She set up a stool, that was too high for the table and made my knees bump into the table, and disappeared for 15minutes to get my supplies. I think she was actually making the frosting for the cupcakes. This deprived others students of about 15 minutes of instruction. It didn't matter anyway, as the class did not require the entire 2 hours. I wish she had taught more about decorating. For instance, she did not show up how to put frosting on the cake so it would be smooth or do anything very advanced. Overall, a disappointing class.

Couples Cupcakes Class
It was fun and laid back. All of the couples were pretty cool and conversation flowed. The instructor was knowledgeable. One recommendation would be to create icebreakers or some type of creative activity during the downtime when the instructor went to the other room (which occurred 2-3 times). Overall, a fun date night.

i love to bake but have never taken a class for it. Awesome to hear tips from a professional baker and get questions answered about some basic techniques. you share the work station and mixer with up to 3 people, but everyone participates in the process. I met some fun, interesting people. and by the end had a much better handle on making frosting and variations of frosting. i enjoyed the class and plan to go back for a more advanced session.

I thought it was great. It was the perfect Sat morning activity. Damian was really understanding of us newbies and he took time to repeat instructions. This experience makes me want to take a one-on-one course.

This class provided a great introduction to cupcake decorating! The instructor was extremely thorough and took the time to help everyone perfect their technique using the various frosting tips. In this course we learned how to color the frosting, write our name and create leaves, rosettes, daisies, shell borders, stripes, and basket weaves. It was a fun and entertaining class, and I highly recommend it!

Cupcake Class
I took two of my friends to this class as a holiday gift and we all had a great time! The teacher was extremely experienced with a lot of knowledge and helpful tricks to share. She created a laid back atmosphere that made the class not only informative, but also fun and entertaining. One of my friends is a bit more advanced with baking, so I was nervous that he wouldn't learn much or that class would be too elementary for him. To my relief, after the class he pointed out some new tricks he learned and tips he hadn't known. Even better, the other friend won the cupcake icing contest and walked away with a $15 gift card to the bakery. Luckily, even those of us less skilled walked away with a complimentary coffee/tea, 4 cupcakes, and left over icing. Not only informative and fun, but also YUM!!
