Description
Painting on cakes, cookies, and cupcakes can be intimidating, but when broken down into easy follow steps by an awarding winning cake designer, anything is possible. Join one of the most influential sugar artists in America, Anne Heap, in this class to learn everything you need to know about painting with edible food color onto a variety of mediums. First, Anne sheds some light on the necessary supplies and a few helpful optional tools needed to get started on your painting journey. Then she shares her simple method for transferring designs onto a fondant covered cake with ease. It’s so easy you might want to recruit a kid or two to help. Moving to the next medium, she creates wafer paper leaves and explains the benefits and challenges that come with this finicky edible paper. Once the design is laid out, Anne shows you how to paint a watercolor effect using two different types of food coloring products to achieve similar looks. Not only does she share her tips for painting within the lines, she also instructs you on how to freehand paint allowing you to add depth with highlights and shadows easily with a marker. And if painting an entire cake seems daunting, don’t stress because Anne shows you how to cover your cookies and cupcakes with fondant or modeling chocolate to create smaller painted masterpieces that can be served up by themselves or paired together for a cohesive display. By the end of this class, you will be painting like a pro.
