WHY YOU’LL LOVE THIS COURSE

A floral cake can look incredibly impressive, but knowing how to create the individual flowers, prepare them in advance and then arrange everything beautifully on the finished cake can feel daunting when you’re learning alone.

That’s exactly why we created this course.

Across three detailed LIVE online classes, we’ll take you through the complete process in the right order — baking your cakes and preparing smooth buttercream, piping your flowers, freezing them ready for decorating, and then assembling and finishing your floral cake.

Every flower will be demonstrated step-by-step before you pipe one along with us. You can then continue practising and pipe the remaining flowers after the class, ready to use on your finished cake.

By the end of the course, you’ll understand not only how to pipe the individual flowers, but how to bring colour, texture, height and placement together to create a beautiful finished floral cake.

MEET YOUR AUTUMN FLORAL CAKE

During the course you’ll learn to pipe four beautiful buttercream flowers:

• Mini Peonies
• Roses
• Anemone Dahlia
• Cosmos

We’ll then show you how to use your frozen flowers to decorate the cake, adding blossom and leaves to create a balanced, professional-looking finish.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN EACH SESSION

SESSION 1 – Bake & Prepare

We’ll bake the cakes and cupcakes together and prepare our buttercream ready for the course.

• Bake the cakes and cupcakes
• Prepare smooth American buttercream
• Talk through the equipment and nozzles needed
• Demonstrate how to prepare and colour your buttercream
• Prepare your cakes and cupcakes for freezing ready for the later sessions

You’ll finish the first session knowing exactly what needs to be prepared for the piping and decorating sessions ahead.

SESSION 2 – Pipe Your Autumn Flowers

Learn to pipe:

• Mini Peonies
• Roses
• Anemone Dahlia
• Cosmos

We’ll demonstrate each flower from start to finish before piping one together. You can then complete the remaining flowers after the class, giving you plenty of opportunity to practise before the final decorating session.

SESSION 3 – Assemble & Decorate

This is where everything comes together.

• Assemble and fill your cake
• Create the centre dome ready for decorating
• Arrange your frozen buttercream flowers
• Add blossom and leaves
• Learn how to balance colour, height and placement
• Add the final details that turn the individual elements into a complete floral cake

AUTUMN COLOUR COLLECTION

Colour is a huge part of bringing this design to life. Throughout the course we’ll show you how we prepare and combine the autumn shades used within the cake.

The course equipment guide includes the colours required, including Purple, Claret, Autumn Leaf, Golden Yellow, Sage Green, White and we’ll demonstrate how we use them to create a cohesive floral design.
