Join Sidney Galpern of Simi Cakes for this fantastic foray into all things Isomalt! In this class you will learn the fundamentals of working with isomalt to create this fabulous Gravity Defying Isomalt Father's Day Display all out of sugar-free hard candy that looks so real, you won't believe it's all edible!!!
In this hands-on class you will create a marbleized base, build the structure for the flowing isomalt “liquor”, learn to create pulled isomalt drips, melting ice cubes, a sugar shot glass, create your very own mini sugar bottle, and blown isomalt bubbles to top it all off. We will address color, flavor, clarity, stability, humidity, safety and more.
Isomalt is a sugar-free hard candy, that we can heat to pour into molds, pull to sculpt with, or use for blown sugar techniques. It is slightly sweet, and holds up better than sugar to humid environments.
You will get to take your completed sugar sculpture home with you, and you have the option of adding the mini liquor bottle silicone mold to take home for $24 (20% off)! This mold is a $30 value, silicone colors may vary. If you do not add on the mold to take home, one will be provided for use in class only. All supplies provided for use during class, all levels are welcome!
There are three bottle shapes to choose from: Whiskey (pictured in class image), Cognac and Vodka. Choose your preference at checkout if you wish to purchase at the discounted price.
This class is suitable for the following Dynamic Duo* types:
YES: Parent/Grandparent & Child (14+ only as this is boiling hot liquid.)

*What is a Dynamic Duo? It’s basically two buddies sharing the same workstation at no extra charge.
