This hands-on cake decorating class with Chef Birdie transforms simple cupcakes into your own frosted creations. You’ll begin with a behind-the-scenes look at how to make rich, fluffy buttercream frosting using heavy cream, powdered sugar, vanilla and just the right pinch of salt. Chef Birdie shares practical tips for achieving smooth texture and stable structure — secrets that elevate your cupcakes at home.

Next, it’s time to decorate. Using pre-baked cupcakes, you’ll practice crumb coating, piping and layering techniques before finishing with bright sprinkles, playful candies and eye-catching designs. Throughout the session, you’ll receive personal guidance in a relaxed, social setting at a trendy local venue in Sacramento. All ingredients, tools and your completed cake are included, making this creative experience both delicious and confidence-boosting.
