Make It Sweet- Cakes, Cake Accessories, Baking Supplies

GENERAL CLASS INFORMATION

Until it is safe for all, we will not be scheduling in-person classes, but we will continue to offer classes online. We currently have 5 kits available to go along with the comprehensive online lessons – see below for details.

ONLINE CLASSROOM DETAILS
When you visit our online platform at www.makeitsweetonlineclassroom.com for the first time, you will need to register with your name and email address and then you will be able to see the variety of classes that are available. We have many classes that are available for only $10 each when students provide all of their own tools, supplies and ingredients. Each class has a preview intro video and class kit sheet so that you can see what you would need before purchasing the class. Recipes, instructions and detailed instructional videos are then available to people who are registered for the class.

The beauty of the online class is that you can follow along with the lessons at any time at your convenience and that you can continue to access the information into the future as well. We miss our in-person classes too and hope to be able to return as soon as possible. In the meantime, we hope you enjoy the online options. We look forward to hearing from you or seeing you in the store sometime soon! We truly appreciate your understanding and support during these unprecedented times.

CLASS KIT BASICS
These kits all include the ingredients and critical tools and supplies to complete the project. The kit will give you access at your own convenience to our online classroom and the videos that will walk you step-by-step through the processes of making your sweet treats. Also included in each kit is a comprehensive written instruction sheet with recipes and descriptions of techniques. There will be some basic items like perishable ingredients and standard kitchen tools that you will need to complete the projects. Because these kits do not include perishable items, all of them can be shipped (for a flat rate of $6 anywhere in the continental US, or to other locations for the actual shipping cost) so that everyone can experience the fun of our informative online classes. The kits make great gifts – think how fun it would be to coordinate a time with friends and family to virtually work together to make something sweet. We hope you enjoy the flexibility of these kits – and the goodies that you will learn to make and decorate!

ONLINE CLASSES WITH KITS

TRUFFLES ONLINE CLASS & KIT

KingCake

Kits Available 2/1 – 4/30 Intro Video
With this kit you will have ingredients and tools to make 24 to 32 delicious and creamy truffles in 4 different flavors. In the online lessons with Jennifer, you will learn how to make the dark and white chocolate ganaches, let them set and then how to temper chocolate and finally how to roll, dip and decorate. Because of the time required for the ganaches to properly set, this ends up being a 2-part process with at least 7 hours in between the lessons of making the ganaches to tempering the chocolate. You can go to our YouTube channel to see what all is included in the kit and watch our intro by clicking here. You will need a half-pint of heavy cream and just some basic tools from your kitchen.

PAST CLASS LISTING, DESCRIPTONS AND LINKS

Please note that not all classes are on the current calendar as they would be too difficult to do as an online lesson or require too many tools and supplies to make the class currently feasible to offer. We will be adding those classes back to the schedule as soon as we are able to have in-store classes again.
