Forget disco diva’s, pirate mateys and twirling fairies … The Classic Cupcake Company’s delightfully fun cupcake decorating birthday parties are literally as ‘sweet as cupcakes’.
Your little chefs will walk out as proud as punch with their new buttercream skills and cutie-patootie (beautifully decorated) cupcakes.
Icing Breakers
Before the girls got down to the business of actually icing cupcakes they each took a turn to tell the birthday girl one thing they loved about her. An activity I’ve not seen done before at a birthday party but it was a wonderful ice (ing) breaker and ended in the biggest girl bonding group hug I’ve ever seen. So sweet.
Let’s get this party started
All the girls were given six deliciously naked cupcakes, a piping bag, buttercream in a choice of colours and an assortment of treasures for decorating.
With hands washed and aprons tied, they were ready to get the party started. First up the birthday girl chose her favourite song (which happened to be Justin Bieber) and they all shook and shimmered around the kitchen.
The art of buttercream
Whistle while you work
With tunes aplenty, the girls really got stuck in their creativity. Edible glitter, sprinkles, sparkles and lustre dust aplenty, it was a joy watching them carefully decorate each cupcake using the skills they’d just learnt.
The Classic Company staff were constantly on hand, answering questions and helping each little pair hands work.
Half a dozen delights
What a joy to see each child take home everything they make! Six delicious and very professional cupcakes are the best lolly bag anyone could ask for!
Each cupcake queen left the party with a personalised certificate of cupcake excellent, six personal masterpieces safely stored in a gift box and a Cheshire cat smile to book.
Booking a birthday party or cupcake holiday workshop is really easy. Pop over to The Classic Cupcake Co Kids Academy for more details.
I really am committed to cupcakes and I have my late Grandmother to thank for that!
She started me young. She started young, and her mother before her! I thank her for insisting on cracking the perfect Vanilla recipe and buttercream before getting overly creative.
