The question we get asked most often in all of our other classes is how to craft the perfect buttercream every time and how to troubleshoot when it all goes wrong! Having the perfect buttercream is absolutely essential when trying to pipe and craft beautiful cupcakes. We give you the foundations for making buttercream, adding colours & flavours to your buttercream, and how to use simple techniques to take your buttercream to the next level. These are skills that will equip you for life-long buttercream happiness!
