    I liked the class, but I do have some experience with fondant and wanted to take the class to clarify doubts that I have about working with it, and my doubts were not resolved.
  • Fondant 101

    I loved learning how to do the first step towards building that skill and adding it to my sculpting repertoire. It kind of brought me back to my younger days when I first started learning Home Economics in summer camp and in my boarding school years; also sort of brought out my inner child in a good way. At one point, I also actually thought: “Finally, a form of art that’s also edible!”
