Saturday, December 11th: Cupcake Decorating
They'll provide the cupcakes and housemade eggnog, and teach you how to do stuff like pipe icing like a pro. Plus you'll get to nibble on treats, and leave with a recipe booklet. Students can take home the Holiday Cupcake Decorating Kit at a 10% discount, too. 11:30AM-1:30PM. $55
Saturday, December 18th: Holiday Classics
Working in groups, you'll learn how to make Eggnog, Holiday Nanaimo Bars (a no-bake wonder!), Peppermint marshmallows, and gingerbread men. Perfect for gift-giving, parties, or tree-trimming. 11:30AM-2:30PM. $65.
Register ahead online to get a spot, and get ready to sweeten up the season.
