Don't just take our word for it...

From one of our students, Yue:

I really enjoy my experience at the school, when I firstly joined the school, I’ve never made a fondant cake before, but now I am confidently ran my part time cake business! @lilmoon_bakery (what a crazy journey 🤩) There are so many online resources there, but what I found the most helpful and unique about the cake school is the vast range of the topic organised in bite size, you can clearly see Holly has put a lot of thoughts into it to teaching - from bigger projects (e.g two tier wedding cake )to handy practical techniques,(e.g how to get sharp edges, how to make sugar flower with no tools). The 1-2-1 interaction is also super valuable, any questions you are not sure of, just post on the school, Holly will be sure to answer them all and give you some pointers. It’s like having your own private tutor. I’d 100% recommend the cake school for any beginner or experienced cake makers.
Yes please, I'm in!
