Noelle will be teaching four separate 1-day royal icing cookie workshops at the show. We were indundated with requests to bring her to Australia. Each workshop offers a different level of complexity. Although some techniques are common, they are all made differently on each day for a unique output on every cookie.
Workshop Overview:
One of the most difficult aspects for a royal icing enthusiast to master, is piped and painted faces. In this workshop Noelle will teach you all the foundation "must knows" about royal icing, and how to pipe and paint character faces. You will also learn how to make Noelle's signature royal icing recipe and how to make it.
You'll be working on pre baked sugar cookies that have been hand-crafted using Noelle's cutters designed specifically for your workshop. During your workshop you will receive comprehensive notes, which will include Noelle's royal icing recipe and templates for all the cutters used.
Noelle will demonstrate and teach you step-by-step how to pipe and paint a charming chibi cookie set. Your class focuses on layered piping methods using various icing consistencies and incoporates how to paint hair and eyes using highlights and shading to add depth and dimension.
This is a fun class filled with learning opportunity.
Techniques and Skills Taught:
Noelle's Signature Royal Icing Recipe & Mixing Methods:
- Learn how to make royal icing from scratch, perfect for cookie decorating
- Perfect the royal icing consistencies needed for 2D cookies: You will receive detailed instructions on how to achieve the right consistency for outlining, flooding, and filling 2D cookies, ensuring smooth, even layers without drips or runs.
- How to Mix: Ivory and "Bread colour" icing (other colours will be used, however they are basic colours which are far easier to achieve the hue). The techniques you will learn take colouring to the next level, and once learned are an invaluable tool to have in your cookie decorating toolbox
Piping Skills - Practice is an Important Element of Your Class:
- You will practice fundamental royal icing piping techniques using an icing sheet, before working on your cookies
- Learn how to pipe clean lines, borders, and basic shapes to build control, precision and confidence
- Understand how to fill designs smoothly and add delicate details
Face Makeup - How to Add Finishing Touches:
- You will add facial details, including blush, eyes, and a mouth to add expressions and personality to your cookie design. This is the fun part, where you will bring your cookie characters to life!
- You will learn how to master shading and lighting - Learn how to create natural shadows and highlights using gel colours and royal icing for a soft dimensional finish.
- This workshop is packed full of Noelle's signature tips and tricks.
