Hi, I'm Grace From The Graceful Baker! 👋
When I set out to create online cookie decorating classes in April of 2022, I wanted to create a resource that was approachable, accessible, and unique to my style. Decorating cookies with royal icing can be such a fun activity, but it can also be very frustrating and tears-inducing (believe me, I’ve been there!)
I’m completely self-taught (when I started decorating 10+ years ago, my primary resources were blog posts and YouTube videos). Now that I’m in a position to teach what I’ve learned, it’s my goal to make this a smoother and easier process than if you were to embark on this on your own.

Everything you need to know before you buy!- A DIGITAL WORKBOOK: You will receive a link to download a carefully compiled digital workbook that provides step-by-step photo instruction for each cookie, as well as details about everything you will need to purchase and prepare in advance of decorating your cookies along with the class recording.
- CLASS RECORDING: You will receive a unique link to the private, pre-recorded class video. Your access to this link is good for as long as YouTube exists/for forever. The video is formatted in real time to emulate the experience of an in-person class, so it's fun and engaging!
- QUESTIONS: Once you have access to the private youtube video, you may ask as many questions as you like via the comments section and they will get answered by Grace or a member of our small team (hosted on YouTube
First, you'll receive two emails (one is your Shopify purchase confirmation the second is your dedicated downloads email). You can access your workbook downloads from both of these emails.
One email is titled "The Graceful Baker Shop Order #XXXX Confirmed" and the other is "Your The Graceful Baker Shop #XXXX Downloads Are Ready".
Second, you will need to review the workbook and complete all of the prep work:
- Purchase cutters, ingredients, and all other necessary tools
- Mix the dough and bake the cookies
- Make the icing, color it, and mix consistencies
(all the information you need to do these things are extensively detailed in the workbook)
Third, set up your workspace, gather your cookies, tools, and icing, start the class video, and have fun decorating!
A general guideline for skill level:
- Beginner: never worked with royal icing before (even if you're an experienced baker) or a handful of times
- Advanced Beginner: has worked with royal icing for +/- 6 months and sometimes gets the icing consistency right
- Intermediate: has worked with royal icing for 1 year+ and often gets the icing consistency right
My classes are designed for success *no matter* how much experience you have with royal icing. All of my cookie decorating classes include the same cookie and icing prep regardless of the skill level. While others differentiate skill level partly based on how much prep is provided, I provide the same prep regardless and differentiate skill level based on the techniques covered in the set and amount of decorations/tools required.
I believe anyone from a total beginner to intermediate/advanced cookiers can take any of my cookie decorating classes because there is always something to learn. Honestly, I made these cookie decorating classes because these are designs I’d make myself!
The way that I distinguish skill level is not just in terms of difficulty of techniques covered, but also into terms of time and financial investment. Typically (but not *always*), the intermediate classes are going to require a combination of more consistencies and colors (aka more prep time) and/or more sprinkles, cutters, tools, etc. (aka more money spent on supplies) than the beginner classes.
You’ll also see that most of the classes are labeled with two skill levels like advanced beginner/intermediate. I largely do that because it really could go either way: for the advanced beginner cookier it will be more of a challenge, but for an intermediate cookier it will be more in their wheelhouse already.
