Ipoh Cupcake Decorating Class

Hands-on cupcake decorating class has been my most popular class since the days of being a Wilton Method Instructor in Ipoh. It is a simplified version of buttercream decorating with the objective of introducing Wilton Course 1, using cupcakes as the base. I call it Cupcake Class: Buttercream.

Cupcake Decorating Class: Buttercream

The first part of the class is a demonstration on How to Bake Cupcakes. For the second part, students get to decorate their own cupcakes and their masterpieces will be brought home packed in a presentable cupcake gifting packaging.

1) White Chocolate Buttercream Recipe

Introducing the best buttercream for tropical climate here in Ipoh aka hot summer weather. My recipe of 3 ingredient buttercream which is stable in tropical weather, produces sharp piped edges, and does not need refrigeration. It can also be used to crumb coat a cake by adjusting the amount of chocolate. Basically it is a white chocolate buttercream recipe.

2) Mixing Colours in a Systematic Way to Save Energy and Reduce Waste

Tips:

Prepare all the required piping bags, coupler, pipng tips, a bowl, spatula and a tall container.
To get different shades of the same color, start with the darker shade.
Start with the lightest color, then gradually move to darker colors. Example yellow before red, red before green.

3) How to Use Coupler and Change Piping Tips

I have a self-explanatory video of how to use a coupler for piping bag preparation. The reason to use a coupler enables the changing of piping tips. For when you want to use the same icing color but changing to a different tip for a different piping design.
