3/14 is Pi Day, so let's make the traditional food: pie! This class will focus on techniques for beautiful pie crust decorations. We'll look at a slideshow for inspiration before tackling braiding, weaving, cutouts, color and making roses. Then, we'll fill a pastry bag with whipped cream and practice piping. 

If you want to follow along with me, you'll need:
  • Some pie crust to play with! Homemade or store bought. If you get it at the grocery store get the one in the refrigerator section that you roll out, not the ones already in an aluminum pan.
  • If you want to practice piping, you'll need to make some whipped cream, or just grab yourself some Cool Whip. It's practice, you don't have to be perfect!
  • A knife
  • Optional equipment, if you want to try all the techniques:
