Kids Cake Decorating Class

For the third year running, Meraki Cake Design is excited to bring one of our most popular KidsFest experiences back to The Tannery, a hands-on cake decorating class designed for creative kids who want to learn the real fundamentals of cake making and decorating.

This immersive class teaches children the full process of building and decorating their own 6-inch cake from start to finish. Students will learn essential cake decorating skills including stacking, filling, damming, crumb coating, icing, smoothing, and finishing techniques before moving on to the creative side of design and decoration.

Rather than following one set design, kids are encouraged to create something uniquely their own. With guidance throughout the class, they’ll explore colours, textures, piping, toppings, and decorating techniques while bringing their ideas to life in a fun and supportive environment.

Each child can choose from chocolate, lemon, or red velvet cake and will take home their fully decorated 6-inch cake, which serves approximately 12 people, perfect for sharing with family and friends. Students will also receive their own palette knife to keep, so they can continue practising their decorating skills at home long after the class finishes.

A creative, confidence-building class packed with hands-on learning, sweet treats, and plenty of fun for young aspiring cake decorators!
