Celebrate Valentine’s Day with buttercream, romance, and a whole lot of vintage flair! In this hands-on cake decorating class, you’ll learn how to create a Lambeth-style (also known as “vintage”) heart cake—think elegant piping, frills, swags, and classic over-the-top charm.
Each participant will receive a prepared 5 inch two-layer heart-shaped cake, ready to decorate from start to finish. When you sign up, you’ll choose the flavor (chocolate or vanilla) and filling (chocolate mousse, whipped cream, or raspberry mousse).
During class, you’ll get to choose your frosting colors and decoration style, making your cake totally unique—soft and romantic, bold and dramatic, or anything in between. We’ll cover piping techniques, design ideas, and tips for achieving that iconic vintage Lambeth look, whether you’re a beginner or just looking to refine your skills.
You’ll leave with a beautifully decorated heart cake, new decorating techniques, and the perfect edible Valentine (for a loved one… or yourself). No prior decorating experience required—just come ready to have fun and get a little sweet!
We will join thousands of people across the country collaborating to make Black history primary research materials more widely available and to celebrate Frederick Douglass’ chosen birthday: Valentine’s Day. This year, the transcriptions will focus on the Colored Conventions Project from the University of Delaware. These state and national conventions, held from the 1830s through Reconstruction, allowed Black abolitionists and leaders to work toward advancing the legal and civil rights of Black Americans in the 19th century and provided opportunities for leaders like Douglass to rise to prominence.
