Lambeth Method Cake Decorating Course

Prerequisite: Advanced /Professional skills required.

Kathleen will be teaching the Old-World Joseph Lambeth Method, while modernizing with her own techniques and methods.

If you have some knowledge in making shells, zig zags and stringwork, then you can learn Lambeth Techniques.

This course is based on the work of Joseph Lambeth. Lambeth Method is one of the oldest English forms of cake decorating in the world. The exacting nature of the intricate over-piping and other Lambeth Method techniques, provide the ultimate challenge to make this design work the realm of only the most dedicated cake designers.

Throughout the class you will be working with rolled fondant, gum paste, pastillage and royal icing. You will be learning precision piping, to help in future decorating skills; learn to be exact in every squeeze of the bag, making hundreds, if not thousands of frosting, gum paste flowers and lace work by hand, to complete several designs on cake dummies, covered with rolled fondant.

Each 6 week course session, you will complete one or two cake designs with famous Lambeth design work such as the basket of roses, ship cake, petunia wedding cake, cushion lattice work, ring border with trellis and several famous designs known as Lambeth cakes.
Each session is 6 weeks, with a total of 10 sessions to complete the 150 hour course.
