PME Master Class and Blog Winner!

DSC_8097FINAL.jpg

Today is graduation day for the 14 students in Chef Nicholas’ PME Master Certification class! It has been 13 days of hard work AND fun! We had students from Nigeria, Curaçao, Bahamas, Argentina, and all over the United States. It will be so hard to say goodbye to all of our new friends, but I know that all of these wonderful students are going home having learned amazing skills to share with their own clients. Thanks to all of our PME students, we are going to miss you!

Normally I do photo blogs after our Open House events, but I thought I could share some of the photos we have taken over the last two weeks! I hope it might inspire you to take a class with us- from a quick 2-day class or up to our 13-day master class! (and yes, I share the winner of last week’s blog at the bottom).

Because the 13-Day PME Master Certification class is so intense, we have a celebratory dinner the second week. The students and ISAC team get to mix and mingle and enjoy a fun dinner out on the town together! It’s a nice little break from all the students’ hard work. 

I hope all of our students had a good time with us at ISAC, and I hope they are pleased with all of the skills, techniques, tips and tricks that they have learned from Chef Nicholas over the last two week! I wish everyone safe travels home, and big business coming your way with all of your new cake decorating confidence!

Now, it’s time to announce the winner of last week’s blog! I shared Chef Nicholas’ newest book Spring and Summer Flowers in Gumpaste, and asked that you comment with the flower from the book that you would be most excited to make, and the winner would receive a copy of this brand new book! Chef Nicholas has chosen a winner:

Patricia Martyres

Patricia- please check your email for details on how to receive your copy of Chef Nicholas’ Spring and Summer Flowers in Gumpaste! And, for fun, there was a tie for the flower that people were most excited to create- Wisteria and Sunflower. Morning Glory very close!

Thank you to everyone who entered, and congratulations Patricia!

 

Sweetly yours, 

Stephanie
