BEACH DAY ~ Online Cookie Decorating Class

Learn to decorate cookies like a pro with our BEACH DAY online class.

Designed for more advanced cookie decorators, each cookie is meant to look like a little beach day vignette/scene. Aall of the intricate designs really bring the "intermediate" level in this cookie class! Pair a couple of these designs with simpler ones for a more bulk-friendly set of cookies to impress this summer.

Every cookie is made on a CIRCLE with JUST royal icing!! So much variety and detail achieved with just one shape and limited tools means less money and less time spent prepping! 

Skill Level: Advanced Beginner/Intermediate

Video Duration: 1.5 hours

Designs Covered: 6

What you receive with purchase:

  • Class video recording (delivered as if it was a live class, so you're transported right into my energy and will finish the class having completed the entire set of cookies)
  • Digital workbook (step-by-step instructions that guide you through purchasing supplies, baking the cookies, making the icing and decorating the cookies)

Skills covered in this class:

  • Two consistency outline and flood
  • Working with tipless bags (and cutting tipless bags)
  • Wet on wet technique
  • Flooding in sections
  • Linework with a piping consistency 
  • Pressure piping
  • Brush embroidery 
  • Bear technique

The cutter used in this class is a 3" circle (I like the one from Brighton Cutters).  (The workbook also provides alternative cutter options, including options from Amazon.)

The original sets of cookie cutters are all linked in the description of each class listing. The class workbook includes alternatives options from sources like Amazon, for example.

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. Whether you've never touched it before or you've been working with royal icing for years, you are SURE to impress all of your friends and family with your edible creations thanks to my detailed instructions and warm approach! 

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.

Great class!

I've taken the beginner classes thus far but wanted to try a harder one! It was a lot more detailed. Grace did a great job at explaining how to do everything! Highly recommend!

A great challenge, very impressive results

I baked 3” circles before choosing which class design to make, and intended to make Beginning Summer, but then I thought, “you know what, I want to make something really impressive!” I decided to jump right into these beach scenes on my fifth full batch of royal icing cookies and made beautiful cookies that look like the pictures. Grace’s instructions are very clear and understandable, well-paced, and she anticipates questions a participant might have when she’s teaching.

The layers of detail in these vignettes just blow me away. They are so fancy!

Grace is not kidding that making a full batch of these five designs is a lot of work. I did the first five cookies over about two hours in the evening, and then the remaining 17 took the majority of the next day, rewatching the video but doing multiples at each step. I got worried about running out of flood consistency sand color icing, but the bear texture with the paintbrush is done with piping and I’d forgotten about that between viewings of the class.

Awesome class

Learned several new techniques in this class. The step by step video and work book made it very easy to end up with an awesome set of cookies. This was my first class but will definitely be purchasing more!

Gaining Confidence!

This is my second class with Grace. I really click with her teaching style! With each new design and technique, I’m gaining more confidence as a cookies! My favorite from this set was the beach towel/blanket. (I did put the thongs on the sandals going the right direction). Great class!
