| These are some classes that I offer in Southeast Texas or will bring to your area if you would like to sponsor one. You are not limited to what I offer here, if you would like a custom class based on anything that you have seen on my site, I would be happy to put a class together for you or your group. I will also demonstrate for cake clubs and have an extensive list of demonstrations that I have given in the past. Many of the classes Below include the use of PVC armature. In those classes we will use a drill, pipe cutters, and sometimes gluing the pieces together. I provide a great deal of supplies for the classes that use these structures. You do not have to know anything about making a 3D cake to take one of the 3D cake classes but it is encouraged that you have some working experience in cake decorating to keep up with the class.
