Welcome to our amazing world of sugarcraft and cake decoration
We commenced our early spring workshops today with Lindy’s Stencil Techniques class. As you know Lindy absolutely loves stencils and they have become the technique du jour in the Sugarcraft world. We also launch this, our very first Live workshop blog – written during the workshop with quotes as they happen. We hope you like our new approach, do let us know what you think…but now back to stencilling…… Continue reading

Here we go again! Lindy’s ‘Introduction to Celebration Cakes’ workshop is so popular we decided we just had to run it again. Nine eager students, nine naked cakes ready for the Lindy Smith treatment!
This is the most fabulous course for the beginner sugarcrafter. It is basic cake covering at it’s best, the humble beginnings of sugarcrafting, and that’s exactly where Lindy starts. Her ’back to basics’ approach works equally… Continue reading
Such is the interest in Lindy’s approach to her work that she has created a collection of technique workshops. We trialled them last season and by popular demand have kept them on our Autumn workshop programme. I have a feeling they are here to stay!

Yay… our Autumn Winter collection of workshops have started ! ‘Introduction to celebration cakes’ is one of my favorite classes because our students arrive with a basic knowledge of sugarcraft, sometimes not even that, and leave with a beautifully covered cake and a pocketful of hints & tips. Lindy has perfected the step-by-step style of teaching ensuring that each step is manageable, not overwhelming, and that you have time to… Continue reading
Our interest in the Royal Wedding cake is well documented! I am sure you can imagine our ‘cake’ excitement, and the anticipation, as the day grew near.
