Congratulations ladies! It was such a treat to have you both over for 5days.

So exciting!

Private sugar flower class in Singapore last April was a great success! Just look at the work of these two awesome ladies.

I am so proud of them for making it through my comprehensive 2day Beginner’s Intensive Sugar Flower workshop. We made 2 dahlias and 2 ranunculus each, a bunch of cosmos, a magnolia, a closed peony, blossoms, buds and foliage. We then assembled the flowers on a fake tier. There was also a lot of talk about cutter options for flowers; alternative tools, formers, drying positions; dusting; careers goals; where to find inspiration; and even how to photograph sugar flowers and cakes! I know, it was a lot to go through (hence the intensive 😂) but I am always so happy to teach this class as it gives the most learning in 2days.

Message me if you want to know more abt this class.
