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.

This is my second class with Grace and I love how detailed she is. She makes it easy to succeed and follow along. I had a few issues with my icing bleeding and also not drying properly so I couldn’t do the crackle effect on the party hat which was a bummer! Overall I think they look great and that is thanks to Grace’s thorough class.
I feel like Grace is my bff sitting at my kitchen table, with her down to earth and realistic approach in helping her viewers learn the skill of cooking decorating.
The video and workbook are very thorough and encouraging (I love all of the mentions to “just go with it” and “have fun with it” and “nobody is perfect.”
This was my second class from The Graceful Baker. And I definitely felt the “advanced beginner.” Mostly because of the prep with more consistencies. I was not prepared for how long it would take to prep the icing. BUT once that was ready, I was on a roll.
It was fun to take her techniques from this class and a beginner class and play around with my own designs on dog bone cookies for our paw patrol theme.
Even though my balloons, hats, lettering, etc were far from perfect, our friends and family were so impressed and loved the personalization and personal touch the cookies brought to the party.
I encouraged all my friends to give Grace’s classes a try. And I encourage you as well.
Cookie decorating is quickly becoming my favorite hobby because of the impressive and delicious results.
I done the pumpkin class for beginners and her are two pumpkins I done using your class for an order I had. My client loved them especially the sweater looking one
Grace—
I was curious… it seems like the stiffer the icing the harder it is when it is dry…. Does this sound right? Or could I be doing something wrong?
I absolutely loved doing this class. All your videos and tips are so helpful. Can’t wait to keep practicing!
