Description

Join us for an elevated 2.5–3 hour, adults-only cake decorating experience celebrating Black beauty, self-expression, education, and legacy through edible art.

In this immersive workshop, guests will build, frost, and decorate their own 5” round, three-layer cake, inspired by the many shades of melanin. Designed exclusively for adults, this experience offers a relaxed, social, and luxe environment where creativity and culture take center stage.

About the Experience

Guests will be guided step-by-step through cake assembly, smooth buttercream techniques, and artistic decorating, with ample time to personalize their design. Cakes will be finished using melanin-toned buttercream and thoughtfully curated decorative elements that reflect individuality, beauty, and self-love.

This experience is paced intentionally to allow for conversation, creativity, and enjoyment — no prior cake decorating experience is required.
