Good baking classes

Hi Jennifer,

I heard Grace are Good for piping skills. But I wonder, if there is any classes been conducted by her in KL area. I also wanna to learn from her.

Cake Connection at Jaya 1 is good place for classes cos they engaged professionals who are passionate in their field of expertise. For people who cannot commit their time to attend a series of classes, here is the place where you can pick and choose the courses which interest you rather than spending a lump sum and you are compelled to attend all the classes which you are not so keen on. At the end of the day, you'll have to ask yourself what are you looking for and how much are you willing to part.

i'm actually very new to baking, picking up bits and pieces here and there ...

was thinking of going for the wilton's classes, but not sure if it is gonna be good for me? can anyone share what are the things learnt from wilton's classes at the end of the day?

I have been wanting to attend Grace's classes by Bandar Mejalara is really out for me. Heard that her continental cakes are excellent. For those of you who are interested, here's her website:

Thanks Jo for the link. I have not heard of Grace Home Cakes until today and their site sure look interesting. I'm sure to join some of their cake baking classes. (First need to find out where the place is)

I agreed with yenlee comments....BWY classes for a start of baking line..then you can upgrade yourself to some advance classes else where.. been there once for demo class only...but I've attended Jo's classes at CC & completed my wilton classes as well as sk class...there more advance & more to spend.... but...why not ...if you've extra money....thanks to all my sifus, Jo, Lynette, YM & Rosalind....

I'm considering of 2 choice, Wilton or Grace...
can you dear fellows help me to choose?

Soo Chin and Beldandy,

Grace for baking and Wilton for decorating.

Can check my blog on what I learnt from Wilton 123.

I've done and completed Wilton 1. In progress Wilton 2 and Wilton 3. I think I prefer Wilton. The courses are systematic. You have course book. You have tools. Most of the tools are in the course kit. The only thing is, you have to start from Course 1 and no jumping courses. And I chose the one in Kota Damansara. Not other branches.

Now I'm going through MIB and Sugarcraft Certificate for cake deco. I'm not sure how much in MIB but Sugarcraft is RM750. Going through their syllabus, I still opt for ICCA-Wilton. You learn step by step and the right techniques of cake deco. By the way Wilton 1 is buttercream deco. Wilton 2 Royal Icing flowers using flower nails, color flow and baskwt weave. Wilton 3 - Fondant, Royal Icing flowers with Lily Nail and Tier/Stacked Cakes.

Can someone tell me what I'm gonna learn in course 1?

Wilton Course 1- the basics of piping skills...from zero knowledge, how to hold piping bag, positioning of hand during piping, icing consistencies for different patterns, proper piping of stars, shells, figure piping, piping roses, pattern transfer...etc

hmmm.....sounds good to me!
but I can't see the schedule on ICCA page la..

I'm agree with Nurainie & Jo. Grace is good at baking. I attend her wedding class & her Rich Sujee Fruit Cake is very nice.

I'm keen to join the Wilton's deco class after seeing so much of reviews. Anyone keen to join me?

I'm going soon soo chin.
maybe after raya.
