Join Brian Knowles in welcoming Spring with two of his favorite flavors-lemon and blueberry, both found in this Sunny Lemon Blueberry Cake.
You’ll start the day by making your lemon scented mascarpone cake. The mascarpone helps to keep the cake soft and moist and allows the wonderful lemon and blueberry flavors to shine through.
The blueberries will be found between the layers in an easy to make blueberry compote that will wow and surprise everyone who eats this cake. Blueberry and lemon are a match made in heaven.
Bringing this all together with even more lemon flavor is a swiss meringue buttercream. This silky-smooth icing is made by heating egg whites and sugar over a double boiler, whipping to stiff peaks, then adding butter and flavoring with lemon extract. You’ll be amazed at how easy this buttercream is to make and work with.
You’ll finish the day learning how to create an ombre effect in shades of yellow and white. Brian will teach you how to use your offset spatula to create a pattern on the sides of your cake so you don’t have to worry about getting them smooth.
The final decorating touches will include thinly sliced fresh lemons dehydrated in the oven earlier in the day. These will bring height and the wow factor to your cake.
You’ll be star baker when you share this Sunny Lemon Blueberry Cake with friends and family. Every bite will bring a smile to their faces.

*What is a Dynamic Duo? It’s basically two buddies sharing the same workstation at no extra charge. You share all equipment and ingredients for a single batch of whatever we’re making that day. (Don’t worry, we won’t stick you with some random stranger- if you want to fly solo, you’ll have the station (and all the yummy food) all to yourself!)
We provide all ingredients, supplies, and tools required for use during each class. Best of all you get to take home whatever tasty treats you make - we provide all boxes/packaging.
Please wear comfortable shoes (stools will be provided) and have long hair tied back. For the comfort of all our students and staff, we ask that you refrain from wearing strong perfume or cologne. You may wish to bring a cardigan or sweater as the kitchen is kept at 68F.
