Easter fun 🐣 decorating Terry’s chocolate oranges at Cake Decorating & Sugarcraft Aberdeen last weekend with workshops for adult members and the new Cygnet's group for under 18's.
3 weeks ago
Our Cygnet's group at #trowbridge #sugarcraft enjoyed a 'create day' making their Easter Bunny models on flower pots. They also learned how to wash their hands correctly using Alan Manship's hand wash testing machine which shows if they have washed their hands correctly ⭐️
Well done to everyone and a special thanks to Lynda Whitemore, the group leader, for another fantastic day at British Sugarcraft Guild Trowbridge -cake decorating club
