Recollections of a sugarcraft teaching trip to Rome with Lindy Smith

Cakes in all shapes and sizes - Lindy Smith Window shopping in Rome

‘Snow in Rome for the first time in 25 years’ was headline news, whilst I was visiting the city on a recent teaching trip.  My first two cake decorating classes went ahead as planned, however the third was unfortunately cancelled due to lack of students.

what I learnt teaching cake decorating in Italy in 2010

My much-anticipated teaching trip to Rome is now over, but all good things must come to an end!

My last class in Rome and it was full of students from all corners of Italy – Sardinia, Scilly, Milan, Florence, Venice etc. Day three is always easier as everyone knows the ropes.
