It was the perfect pre-Valentine’s Day treat! I attended a cookie decorating class hosted by The Honest Apron and Vicky’s Veganry and boy, did I have a blast!
We learned all about the basics of royal icing biscuits and were given six delicious sugar cookies to decorate, along with all the materials we needed. The best part? Everything was 100% vegan, dairy, and egg-free… I mean that’s my ideal world right there!
The hosts, Angelique and Vicky, were beyond friendly and made each person feel at home as we laughed, learned, and had a great time together. They were overflowing with useful information on how to decorate cookies, make the perfect icing, and even general life tips really, leaving everyone feeling comfortable to express their own unique personalities while seeing the experts hard at work showing us their skills.
The class was hosted at the Flamingo Centre in Johannesburg and included a delicious spread of food from Lexi’s Healthy Eatery, making it a true feast for the senses.
Now i must admit, while I may not have been the best at decorating my cookies (I don’t want to talk about my jacket or heart shapes haha) I still had a great time being creative in my own unique way. It was a fun and exciting experience that pushed me out of my comfort zone, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and engaging activity to do with friends or a loved one. I know that they will definitely be having lots of upcoming workshops in the future and if you follow their pages, you will definitely be kept in the loop! (Or follow me!)
What I found really fascinating was how serious everyone in the class took it, as we mostly forgot to breathe in the beginning as it was quite daunting… yet, near the end of the class people were living their best lives being super creative with their designs.
For those curious… these were the specially selected designs that we had the challenge of replicating!
And now for the moment of truth… here are my versions of them!
A big shout out to The Honest Apron and Vicky’s Veganry’s ?. They really went above and beyond to make the class enjoyable, and I’m sure you’ll have just as much fun as I did when they do some more in the future… who knows, you may just surprise yourself and kickstart a whole new career for yourself!
