Rectangle cakes are everywhere, and we love them! Their long, elegant shape gives you so much room to play with colour, piping and beautiful finishing details. In this relaxed, hands-on class, you’ll decorate your own rectangle cake to take home.

​

We’ll take care of the baking before you arrive, leaving you free to focus on the decorating skills. You’ll make our Swiss meringue buttercream from scratch, learning how to achieve its silky texture and getting plenty of tips for making it successfully again at home. Then you’ll colour your buttercream, fill and crumb coat your cake, and learn how to frost a rectangular shape with a smooth finish and neat edges.

​

Once your cake is covered, the creative part begins. We’ll show you how to pipe a variety of shapes and build them into an intricate border, with guidance on placing your colours and details so the design feels beautifully balanced. You can then visit our sprinkle pick and mix bar to choose the finishing touches for your cake.

​

At the end of the day, you’ll take your finished cake home in a box, along with full recipes and class notes. You’ll also keep a set of professional piping nozzles, so you can put your new skills to work on your next cake.
