For all who know me , I am really passionate about my cakes and it has been wonderful to receive emails and letters from my recent students, that have attended my classes, thanking me.
I know some of you are a little nervous when you arrive for your class but as soon as you enter my cake studio  and as I say Welcome to my office! the fun begins.

My classes are small, why because that is how I like them!
 I could have groups of 10 students and squeeze you in like sardines and I know plenty of cake schools that do but my cake room is large and spacious and could fit 10!
However I want  every student to walk away pleased with their cakes and most importantly, have found a new passion in what they now do. So if you like my classes please do not be afraid to mention it on the cake forums,discussion boards and to your friends on Facebook.

Many students that I have met through my classes or at my local library demonstrations ask me how they can  eventually have their own business from home so I have listed the following workshops to help them to do so.
