DI Cake Studio

With online courses priced from £100 and year-long access to professional video content, DI Cake Studio brings advanced sugar paste modelling directly to your home workspace. Based in Hounslow, this specialist school focuses exclusively on cake decorating and fondant sugarcraft, teaching the intricate art of creating lifelike figures and characters for cake toppers.

The studio's masterclasses centre on detailed character modelling, with courses covering everything from whimsical dolls to realistic farm animals and ethereal angels. Each online course provides comprehensive video instruction over seven to eight detailed lessons, with step-by-step demonstrations that break down complex sculpting techniques into manageable stages. The school teaches practical skills like wire frame construction for structural support, realistic face modelling and painting, and advanced texturing methods that bring sugar paste figures to life.

In the Doll's Dreamland Masterclass, students learn to create expressive human characters complete with delicate dresses and miniature accessories, mastering both boots construction and face painting techniques. The Farm Animals course covers proportion and realistic movement whilst teaching layered fur texturing and precise toolwork for crafting horses, piglets and other barnyard creatures. The Beauty Angel Masterclass tackles more advanced concepts including edible lace recipes, wing creation and hair painting techniques for celestial-themed toppers.

All figures created are entirely edible except for internal wire supports and wooden sticks. Students receive a certificate signed by founder Dionis Iarovoi upon completion, plus access to materials guides and puffed rice recipes for creating lightweight internal structures.

The school suits dedicated cake decorators ready to develop sophisticated sugar modelling skills through detailed online instruction.
