2022 Cl Academy Half Day Workshops | Cake International

2022 Cl Academy Half Day Workshops

With so much to see and do at CI, you might not be able to spend a full day in the workshop room which is why we have created a programme of 3 hour workshops! 

If you want to get exclusive tutoring and learn from some of the industry’s best artists these workshops provide the perfect opportunity.

With a maximum of 15 students per session places are limited, book now to avoid disappointment. 
As each student works at a different speed and/or level, we cannot guarantee you will complete the finished piece in the allotted time.

All equipment is provided (to be returned at the end of your session). Workshop tickets give you entry to the main show.
