CATHY WEBB has three classes on this schedule. Cathy teaches classes in cookie making and decorating, in garnishing, and other decorating classes as well. She combines a background in art with a love for “pretty” foods. You can see samples of her work (and some of the techniques you can learn in her classes) on her website at: www.cathysdesignercookies.com Cathy’s classes on this schedule will fill quickly. Don’t delay in signing up.

On Saturday, July 12 at 9:30 a.m. Cathy will be Decorating Christmas Cookies In July($40 per student; limit 12 students). We’re offering this class now because you need to make and decorate the cookies before you find yourself over-scheduled in the midst of the holiday season. Last year this class was so popular it sold out twice. Better to learn now, and practice, and bake ahead, and decorate when and as you have time.

On Friday, August 1 at 10:00 a.m. Cathy will offer a class for 9-through 13-year-olds called Kids Bake’N’ Decorate Cookies ($40). In this class, the kids will learn two basic from-scratch cookie recipes, along with tips for baking perfect cookies every time; then they’ll learn techniques for making the cookies as pretty as they are tasty, as they decorate them using their own imagination. (Wait ‘til you see some of the hot air balloon cookies they’ll create!) Limited to 12 students.

On Sunday, September 14 at 1:30 p.m. Cathy will offer a class in European Holiday Cookies ($40). This is a not a hands-on class, but Cathy will demonstrate Linzer Bar Cookies, Rosey’s Rugalach, Chocolate Cherry Biscotti, Cinnamon Cookies with Port Glaze and Sculpted Rose Sugar Cookies. This is nearly a repeat of a class she offered last September, so if you took that one, drag out your old recipes and take a different class. We’ve got people waiting to take this one for the first time!
