Last month we took some well-deserved time off and headed to Nevada for Cake Camp. The 4-day workshop, run by the California Cake Club, featured instructors and master cake bakers from all over the country for classes and demos.
They had tons of different classes to pick from – from “Bling, Bling, the Art of Edible Gems” to “Sushi Cake” to “Totally Tipsy with Tulips”. It was hard to choose, but below are a few photos from the various classes we attended:
Tattoo Flowers class with Becky Rink from About the Cake
Specializing in sculpted and unusual cakes, Becky’s designs can be seen atop American Greetings cards, Today’s Bride Magazine and Wedding Cakes, A Design Source. She has written the book “The Top Shelf Baker – Sweet Treats From a Well-Stocked Bar” and travels the country working as a free-lance instructor and judge.
Elegant Cake Toppers class with Martha Hebert and Rebecca Guidry, also known as the Sweet Southern Ladies
Martha Hebert and Rebecca Guidry are real sisters and have published the book “Sweet Treasures”, teach cake construction and design classes across the nation and internationally and were past winners of TLC’s Ultimate Cake Off.
We had an amazing time at class, picked up some new techniques and lots of new ideas. Now it’s back to the kitchen to create some beautiful cakes…
