  • Making candied fruit
  • Preparing buttercream
  • Selecting fruit
  • Working with spices

Due to the length of cupcake boot camp, we encourage you eat a hearty breakfast prior to coming to class as no food will be served with the exception of the cupcakes made during class.

In this hands-on class, students will be paired in groups of four and work together as a team to prepare the recipes. Groups will eat together at their cooking stations while being spaced out from others in their group as much as possible. Should you wish to have your own group or table, you will need to reserve 4 seats.
