"A huge thank you to the lovely Claire for sharing her wonderful knowledge and skills – I am one of the “never worked with cookies, royal icing or even held an airbrush” brigade but enjoyed such a brilliant day. I’m not artistic or creative so never imagined I would end up with such amazing cookies. Thank you again Claire"
