I remember being so frustrated when I was told "it just takes practice". I had been practicing and I was getting impatient. I wanted fewer videos of cookie decorating at high speeds with no explanation and more step by step instruction. I wanted someone to walk me through the techniques that I wanted to learn, and I didn't want to have to visit 1000 different websites, videos, and Facebook groups to do it. I started to think that maybe I just wasn't talented or creative enough to make the edible art that that I saw others making. The "beginner" groups even seemed like a far cry from where my skills were. After finally gaining confidence in my skills, I wanted to find a way share the things that helped me the most with beginner cookie decorators. While cookie decorating does take practice (like any skill), it's something you can learn especially when you have someone to teach you. You don't just need more practice. You need someone to walk with you and meet you where you are. You need a community of ladies learning together , and supporting each other. The Sg Cookie Academy is exactly where you'll find that.
