Cupcake 101 Class
On 9/4 I attended a class at the Kansas City Culinary Center. It was my first class, and it was fun. I learned some pointers and good suppliers in the area. There were chips and dips to snack on before the class started. They also provided a glass of wine to everyone. We started with using a recipe the teacher provided and were in groups of 4. We used KitchenAid mixers, and I loved it. Too bad they are so pricey, but I'm keeping my eye out for sales this holiday season. Our cupcakes turned out fine, and we were able to play with fondant and learn some icing techniques. The teacher was awesome in letting us do our own thing.
Some pictured of decorating techniques I learned. It's supposed to be a flower. I'm hoping with practice it will look better. Plus, I need to get the gel food coloring. I have the tiny liquid bottles and the gel is much more vibrant.
