NSW Cake Camp

Last weekend a group of 60 decorators joined us at NSW Cake Camp! NSW Cake Camp is run by the Australian Cake Decorating Network and our NSW Camp was sponsored by the awesome team at Cake Decorating Central. This year’s Cake Camp was held at the stunning Fairmont Resort Blue Mountains.

We had 8 courses (4 courses each day):

Beginner & Advanced Royal Icing Cookie courses with Julia Day of Miss Biscuit

Modeling a head and bust and gravity defying monkey with Nicholas Ang of The White Ombre

Wedding Elements Masterclass and Concept to Cake with Alisha Henderson of Sweet Bakes

Striped buttercream with sweet toppings with Katherine Sabbath

Thank you to everyone who joined us for the weekend! We would also like to thank the absolutely amazing team at Cake Decorating Central! Kylie and Lou helped us in organising all the supplies required for the 8 courses over the Cake Camp weekend and even brought a pop-up shop to Cake Camp for our Campers to stock up on supplies!

Here’s the gorgeous venue

Cake-Off Challenge at NSW Cake Camp

 

We chose a creation from each decorator and decided to make it a bit more interesting by getting each decorator to make the other decorator’s designs, in just 30 minutes!
