Julia Child proclaimed that, “A party without cake is just a meeting”, and we wholeheartedly agree! In this two-day workshop, Marianna Stepniewski will teach you multiple techniques for mixing cake layers, how to make a variety of fillings, and how to customize them to your own tastes. You’ll learn the art of making real buttercream and then go through the steps to slice, stack, fill, crumb coat, frost and decorate as you work towards creating your own cake to take home. You’ll have the option of choosing between three cakes: chocolate Earl Grey cake with passionfruit caramel and chocolate Swiss meringue buttercream; citrus olive oil cake with pistachio creme legere and yuzu Swiss meringue buttercream; and vanilla bean buttermilk cake with rhubarb preserves and raspberry Swiss meringue buttercream.
