Emphasis is given on how to prepare the different components of the cake, including the iconic moist chocolate cake layers, the delectably rich and devastatingly sinful frosting, and the satiny smooth and shiny chocolate ganache glaze that puts a dazzling finish to the cake, making it worthy of a royal ransom!

Students will also learn basic cake assembly and cake decorating techniques to help them achieve a professional-looking (and tasting) end product.
