Hi, I'm Sara!

And I know exactly what it's like to struggle with decorating cookies!

I began taking decorating classes to improve my piping skills. Fast forward 8 years and MANY batches of cookies later ... now decorated cookies are one of my go-to treats when celebrating special occasions. 

During my many years of practice, I have compiled a LOT of information about decorating cookies and written a beginner's guide to cookie decorating. I’ve used that knowledge to help cookie decorators of all levels improve their skills through my website windycitybaker.com. Because of the experience I gained practicing, I won Chicago's Best Baker Competition in 2019.

Tech: You will need to have access to a device that will allow you to watch videos and download PDFs (if you want to save the provided materials) and an internet connection.

Ingredients: Cookie ingredients (all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, butter, salt, eggs, vanilla extract, and almond extract), royal icing ingredients (powdered sugar, meringue powder, water, corn syrup, and vanilla extract), gel food coloring, small amount of vodka.

Equipment: Stand mixer, baking sheets, parchment paper, rolling pin, plastic wrap, sifter, sharp knife, toothpick, spatula, any colored edible marker (optional), gold, brown, and pink luster dust, small food-grade paintbrush, and piping bags. No cookie cutters are required since paper templates are included in the workbook so cookies can be cut by hand.

Optional Equipment: microplane zester, couplers, #1 piping tips.

IS Makeup Time RIGHT FOR ME?

This course is for anyone who wants to build their foundational techniques and improve their cookie decorating skills!

It is perfect for anyone who wants to learn how to bake no-spread sugar cookies, create cookie designs, get icing to the correct consistency, and master the basics of cookie decorating with royal icing (a newbie cookie decorator).

It would also be helpful for anyone looking for inspiration and instruction in becoming a better cookie decorator.

Once you get access to the online portal, you will also have access to all of the PDF files for the course. You will be able to download them by clicking on the file. Once the file is downloaded, you will be able to print it. You will need to print the templates to use that as a cookie cutter guide.
