**This class was originally released in 2022, and is being brought out of the vault to be for sale for a limited time. And it's on sale! What could be better :)
No experience needed for this beginner class. Whether you’ve never touched royal icing or you’ve used it a couple times but are craving some hands-on instruction, this class is for you!
I made this set with at-home beginners in mind, so it uses just 4 colors (white, pink, green and orange) and just ONE consistency (my thick flood). Yes, you heard that right! So all you'll need are 4 bags of icing for this class (and a few different kinds of sprinkles). Now that's my kind of beginner class!
These are the cutters used in this class:

Grace's class was a ton of fun! She is an excellent teacher. I'm brand new to royal icing and cookie decorating and Grace explained everything very well and kept it fun. Thanks to her and this class, I've found a new hobby!

This prep work timeline was so helpful and the workbook was very complete and great reference!!

I absolutely loved this online class!! I’ve made royal icing cookies several times before but it’s never been as easy as this! I learned so many helpful tips and tricks like making sure I have the right icing consistency and how to hold the bag just right! I was nervous that it being online wouldn’t be enough but Grace gives such detailed instructions in the workbook and over the zoom that it was perfect! Can’t wait to take more classes in the future!

I’ve taken Grace’s Puppy, Strawberry Lemonade, and Frozen Treats [pre-recorded] virtual classes and will continue to attend future classes she publishes! Her detailed workbooks, linked videos, and step-by-step decorating class ensures that class prep goes smoothly and that you can produce some fabulous cookies even as a beginner. For example, she includes critical details like icing weights required per design color so that you can adjust depending how many cookies you made per design and you’re sure to not run out mid-decorating. By sharing her knowledge and tips and tricks she’s learned along the way to avoid mistakes, as well as her reassuring and fun attitude during class itself, I now have the confidence to start a new hobby and I’m so thankful to Grace for that.

Yes!
how is this class different than the free resources you have on youtube?
My YouTube tutorials show you one cookie at a time and I’m just doing a voiceover over the decorating video I already filmed. The classes I sell have a recording of the class and a 40+ page workbook—many people have said the class is worth is just for the workbook. The class recording is very different from the YouTube tutorial: it starts with how to cut/hold the bags, piping practice and then the decorating is done jumping around steps in different cookies so they’re all done at the same time (just like I would decorate myself). The recording is much long as i'm demonstrating different techniques and pausing to explain things (much more information than I can give in the YouTube tutorials that don't stop). The videos are all private YouTube videos and I do welcome questions in the comments section which I always answer (on my public YouTube I’m not able to answer all questions).
bio of the instructor
The force behind the wildly successful Instagram @thegracefulbaker, TikTok @thegracefulbaker and YouTube under the same name, Grace recently took the plunge to be a full-time Cookie Artist & Content Creator. Completely self-taught, she has poured countless hours into mastering royal icing and growing a community of loyal followers who turn to her both for decorating tutorials and royal icing prowess, as well as a source for stress-relief, highly effective child entertainment (it’s true!) and a side of education about lesser-known topics. Born and raised in Vermont, her roots are in the woods but her heart is here in the big city. Grace is thrilled to being sharing her nuggets of cookie wisdom with you!
Please note: there are no refunds for this class, sorry!
