Are you hosting a birthday party, bridal shower, baby shower or any event that includes 6 or more people?!

Just let me know your theme and I will design the perfect cookies for you and your friends to decorate!

Private classes are $85.00.00 per person (must be booked with 12 people) if the class is held at my home or $95.00 per person at a location of your choice within a reasonable distance in Ottawa.

​

A non refundable deposit of $510.00 is required to reserve a Private Party Class.

Intermediate Class

​

This is a class for students with previous cookie decorating experience.

In this class we will focus our attention on new and exciting edible details that bring your

cookies to a whole new level of sophistication.

To be eligible to attend an intermediate class you must have previously attended one of my basic classes.

Knowledge of the basic techniques on how to hold a piping bag, outline and flood a cookie and correcting minor mistakes are requirements for this class.

Intermediate Classes prices depend on the cookie set that we will be decorating. Therefore please see the class that is in the schedule for exact pricing. Full payment is required upon booking and all ticket sales are final.

In the event that you are unable to attend, you may sell or transfer your ticket to a friend. 

​

  • Depending on the class, you may learn techniques such as wet-on-wet roses, airbrushing, piping royal icing transfers such as flowers and making wafer paper of fondant decorations.

  • Each student will get a scoop of stiff white royal icing and I will teach you to colour and turn the stiff icing into the perfect flood consistency icing. (you will get to take this icing home with you)

  • No materials required, I provide everything!

  • The materials that I provide for the workshop are:  pre-made cookie shapes that go with the theme of the season (ie, Valentines, Easter etc)! Pre-made royal icing. All decorating tools such as piping bags, boo boo sticks, edible markers, a carry out box for you and your friends. Scissors, spray bottles, spatulas, bowls, food safe gloves and paper towels.

  • The class will be approximately 4.5 hours long

  • You will go home with at least 5 detailed cookies in your carry out box, your icing bag, my delicious sugar cookie recipe & a very important tool to use when you next make cookies!

  • Light snacks and bottled water provided

​

The maximum number of students is 12. Minimum class size is 6. 

If 6 students have not registered for this class, The Vintage Cookie Jar

reserves the right to cancel or reschedule the class to another date.

In this case, all tickets will be fully refunded.

Sadly The Vintage Cookie Jar is NOT able to host classes at this time due to COVID19.

Once the pandemic passes and it is safe to do so, classes will resume.

Thank you very much for your understanding.
