Lindy's Cakes

Suitable for decorators at any stage of their sugarcraft journey, from complete newcomers to experienced bakers seeking professional refinement, Lindy's Cakes operates from Shrewsbury as the teaching base of internationally recognised cake designer Lindy Smith.

The school specialises in Cake Decorating and Fondant & Sugarcraft through a flexible approach that adapts to individual learning goals. The core offering centres on tailor-made classes from £300 for six-hour sessions, with options ranging from scheduled group workshops to intimate Pick & Mix classes for up to two students, alongside fully bespoke one-to-one tuition designed around specific project requirements.

The Pick & Mix classes draw from Lindy's extensive portfolio of published techniques and designs, covering practical skills including covering and decorating mini cakes, working with wafer paper, creating wedding cookies, carving and covering cakes, and achieving professional cake finishing standards. Students receive equipment, aprons, refreshments and selected materials as part of their class fee. The bespoke approach means decorators can focus on mastering techniques needed for their own specific projects, with Lindy's two decades of teaching experience ensuring instruction is tailored to individual briefs and skill levels.

Classes accommodate various occasions including hen parties, children's groups, and corporate events, with private hire options available for those seeking exclusive access to the teaching space. Online classes extend the learning opportunities beyond the Shrewsbury location, whilst gift vouchers provide flexibility for those planning future learning experiences.

The school suits dedicated cake decorators who value personalised instruction from an established sugarcraft expert, particularly those working towards specific decorating goals or seeking to master advanced techniques through hands-on guidance.
