What our customers are saying

If you wish to learn a new skill, bolster your confidence,  meet new people, do it, you will not regret it.

Annette Coe

Dawn is a highly skilled, patient and conscientious teacher who has an amazing ability to teach.

The classes are the perfect mix of fun and laugher, whilst learning new skills and techniques. Dawn is constantly creating beautiful new cakes for us to make and at the end of each course we all have the most incredible cake to take home and show off.

Emma Rawlings

Just want to say a Big thank you for the Sugar paste and Modelling course.
It has bolstered my confidence for covering celebration cakes, following your very clear guidance and instruction.
From day 1, I felt welcomed, the atmosphere was very positive and relaxed, with a feeling of camaraderie.
It has been great fun
