Everything is prepped right before class – so no baking or icing mixing required. Just decorate! This class is on November 21st and runs from 11:00 – 1:00 sharp, so we can have enough time to decorate and answer questions along the way. Come by yourself, bring your best friend, or bring the family - we have seating for up to 15 people! It's a blast whether you're coming with a friend, family member, or solo! This class is good for ages 10 and older, but if you'd like to leave the kiddos at home, purchase an add-on kit (more on that below)! The kits are great for kids at home, plus - we'll send you the class PowerPoint so you can teach them yourself! The class will be held at Off the Square in Hernando, MS, located at 2353 Hwy. 51 S. Things to Bring Wondering what you need to bring to have a successful time decorating? Well, nothing’s required – but here are the things we recommend if you’d like to elevate your experience! · Bring an apron! Things can get messy when you’re workin’ with royal icing – so grab an apron (bonus points if it’s cute – I’ll definitely be asking where you got it). · Bring your glasses! There’s a reference slide deck to help you decorate, but if things get blurry far away, seeing glasses may be a great bet. · Bring your phone! I love it when students take pictures throughout class – so bring a phone! · Bring a good attitude! Cookies are fun, but they're also challenging! A good attitude makes all the difference. About Sugar Cookie Shorty Who doesn’t love going out and doing something fun while also eating delicious cookies!? That’s what Sugar Cookie Shorty is all about! These classes are based in Hernando and cater to the beginner cookier or people just looking to have fun learning a new skill. Whether you just want a fun date, a girls' or guys ' night out, or just want to explore what cookie decorating is on your own, we have a seat for you. For our classes, all you will need to bring is yourself (and an apron if you are a messy decorator), and I’ll take care of the rest. Oh – and bring eyeglasses so you can see the instructional PowerPoint if your eyesight is anything like mine. You will get a set of pre-baked cookies (pretty tasty if I do say so myself) as well as all the supplies you will need to decorate them during the 2-hour hour class. You will leave the class with your very own box of your very own newly decorated cookies! A little about me – I’ve been baking sugar cookies for over 30 years – and I’ve not put down a scribe since (don’t know what a scribe is? I’ll teach you in class!). My favorite cookie themes to decorate are baby showers and birthdays – but I can do pretty much anything if icing’s involved. I love what I do –who wouldn’t love making cookies?! It’s the sweetest job in the world! Oh yeah - I have classes throughout the year which highlight different themes, so make sure to follow our social media pages so you can get in on the cookie action! DIY / Add-On Kits Order your sugar cookie class kit and take the class home with you to teach a child or friend! These class kits come with everything you'll use in class, and I’ll email you the class PowerPoint so you can follow our step-by-step instructions from home! Cookie Class DIY Kits are created before your class, and you'll pick them up and take them with you after class. How long can a kit last? Depending on how you store your icing, your kits can last for a week or longer. Freezing cookies keeps them fresh for a long time, but I recommend using your kit as soon as possible - ideally in the first week after you've taken it home. Cookies are heat-sealed for freshness – but again, use them in under a week to make sure they taste the best.
