Toba Garrett is a renowned expert in classic Australian stringwork, brush embroidery and beautiful gumpaste flowers.
Students will learn how to do precision pipe work through a metal tip with a tiny opening. This is the hallmark of Australian-styled cake artistry, namely, stringwork, a/k/a bridgework, or curtailing. Students will also learn how to pipe fine lace pieces from a pattern and attached to the cake to help create the illusion of a lacy skirt. Finally, students will also learn some free-hand embroidery work which will pull this masterful technique together.
This technique resembles fine stitch work seen on the most beautiful table cloths, napkins and fine linen. Brush Embroidery is an English style technique that provides the student with an approachable, yet stunning technique of transposing a simple cake to a stunning work of art. Students will learn how to first transfer a design to a cake, then outline the design and learn how to create beautiful brush strokes that gives a cake a transparent, yet breathtaking look. Some additional free-hand embroidery techniques will also be included with the brush work.
Welcome to the art of real life-looking flowers. Gumpaste, in a quick nutshell, is made by using vegetable gums together with almost any commercial rolled fondant. The result is a flexible and pliable paste that can be used to pull, stretch and shape in various edible forms. As part of the 2 day class, students will be introduced to making pull blossoms and buds with foliage and miniature carnations. Students will have an opportunity to work with fine florist wires, florist tape and learn how to petal-dust each flower to perfection as well as learning how to arrange these flowers into a beautiful spray.
FREE Demo on Sunday, July 8th - 8am - 12 pm
