Below is a brief description of classes currently offered by Carla. Specific class dates and times will be updated as they are added. Let me know what classes your are most interested in, so that I can make sure I'm offering the types of classes folks are most excited about!
The Fondant Centers Class includes instruction on making a variety of candy centers including; creams, fudge, toffee, caramels, and truffles. Instruction on tempering and hand dipping.
Learn how to make centers for dipping made with cream and sugar, the way Grandma Effie did it. Learn how to keep fondant from going to sugar and if it does then you will learn how to save the it. The only way to ruin a batch is to burn it. You will learn how to figure out what temperature to cook any candy at any altitude. What ingredients I use to make some of the best centers in the world.
Toffee can be intimidating; come join the fun in a 1 night candy instruction class, where you make a batch of toffee with your favorite nuts to take home. This is a BYOI (bring your own ingredients) class. I will send you an ingredients list and other class information when you sign up.
Join us for an intimate class of no more than six people, to create beautifully dipped strawberries in a variety of colors. Featuring the nearest holiday theme, such as Valentines Day, Mothers Day, Easter, or any occasion. You can use any color to create. For example: Frozen themed strawberries, Olaf to be specific. You can request a group class for your friends and/or family, or an individual class to create strawberries for a special occasion.
This is the best caramel/white chocolate covered popcorn recipe that you will find. It is a family favorite, without as much work as fondant centers and dipping. It is caramel popcorn made with my favorite recipe, add your favorite nuts along with some marshmallows, then it is all covered with white chocolate and finished with drizzled milk and dark chocolate. In our class you will learn how to make caramel and the process of coating the popcorn, along with tips and tricks. You will also create your very own cookie sheet of goodness to take home with you.
This quick and easy class will show you how to make delicious thin mint sandwiches, better than you could ever get at the store.
