About the class

Do you fancy being able to make pretty, beautifully baked cupcakes?


This online class is for you if:

  • You have always wanted to bake perfect cupcakes that are light, fluffy and delicious


  • You have always wanted to pipe pretty swirls but are completely overwhelmed or confused by all the different piping tips available?


  • No matter how hard you try,  you can’t achieve consistent results with your sponge, or your buttercream


  • You would love to bake cupcakes, but aren't quite sure where to start


  • You are looking for some recipes that give consistent results for total beginners as well as more seasoned bakers


  • You simply don’t have the time to try 100s of different recipes and methods – you want a selection that works every time


  •  You would love a professional, award winning cupcake maker available to troubleshoot with you and a supportive community group where you can ask questions - or show off!


I can help you bake tasty, uniform cupcakes with a selection of my favourite, SIMPLE recipes! Then I'll show you what piping tips do what, and how you can put together different textures to make pretty cupcakes everyone will love.


The Online Cupcake Masterclass includes:


  • A pre-recorded group training, saved for you to watch whenever you want - PLUS a recorded introduction and a pre-class prep video


  • Comprehensive equipment and ingredients list


  • Pre-recorded video modules showing how to make various different recipes, filled with hints and tips


  • Fillings – what works and why – what doesn’t work and why


  • Complete cupcake making demonstrations


  • How to make and colour buttercream


  • Troubleshoot with a me, a multi award winning cupcake maker, in the dedicated Facebook group whenever you need!


I’ve been teaching students how to bake cupcakes for 17 years!  It was my very first in-person class and I have always had a soft spot for a cupcake.
