Celebrate in the sweetest way with this Beginner Birthday Cookie Decorating Class—your go-to set for creating adorable, party-ready cookies with ease.
Designed for at-home beginners, this class keeps things simple (and fun!) with just 4 icing colors and one easy consistency—which means less prep, less stress, and more time actually decorating. Exactly how it should be.
We’ll be using a custom cutter set created just for this class, making it so much easier to achieve clean, festive designs—even if it’s your very first time decorating cookies.
Want to level up your skills? Check out the Advanced Birthday Class, where we take things a step further with more detailed designs—all created on circle cookies.

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.

Yes! But please be aware that most of the recommended materials and required cookie cutters for our classes come from US-based small businesses or USA Amazon, which might incur larger shipping costs if you are acquiring them from outside the US.
If you would like to cut down on shipping costs for this reason, we would recommend purchasing one of the one “shape” classes as they require fewer individual cutters and may even be a generic shape that you could find at your local shop.
Our beginner level classes also require fewer tools and extra materials like sprinkles, etc. so that may be a lower shipping cost option as well.
