Alright, so an art class specifically for cake baking and decorating. So I think I saw Fran on this call. Uh, Fran is one of, um, our, she's a amazing person, a good friend, but also a fantastic instructor, um, and leads our vegan desserts, uh, uh, course as well too. Um, I would highly recommend anything that she has put out there. So, um, if you're a Rouxbe student, definitely go through, do a search on some of her live events. They're wonderful to be able to watch and you'll, I guarantee you'll learn something new by watching through some of her materials as well too. So that would probably be one of the things I would recommend just to watch Fran definitely take notes on some of the things she's doing as well, but specifically for, um, decorating an art class. Um, have fun with it, right? So there are a lot of different things in baking that you really have to follow the rules on, and you have to be very exact on, but decorating can be a little bit different. You can go outside the box on a little bit, so have fun with that, um, and, uh, just explore a little bit and see what you can do with it. Um, other advice on that too is don't try to buy everything all at once. You know, so when you're doing decorating and baking, a lot of people will get a list and be like, I have to buy everything on this list. Wait for a minute to see exactly what you're going to need for the course. Um, what things are staples that you'll use regularly and what things you might not use regularly too as well. So only buy the things that you actually need for it. Wait for the instructor to tell you these are the items that you need to be able to do for the course as well.
