With school holidays well underway and energy starting to dip, DeLovely Cake Design & Academy offers a refreshing way to finish strong. Their hands-on school holiday workshops give kids the chance to bake, paint, craft and create with expert instructors — producing beautiful (and delicious) take-home creations.
School holidays are the perfect time for kids to slow down, get creative and try something new — and DeLovely Cake Design & Academy in Chatswood has curated a busy program of hands-on holiday workshops designed to spark imagination, build confidence and deliver plenty of “look what I made!” moments.
From baking and cake decorating to fine art, crafts and balloon design, these small-group workshops are led by award-winning cake artists and professional art educators — with every child taking home something they’ve created themselves. Perfect for ages 5+ years, there’s even an option for 4-year-olds to join with their parents. Explore below!
