Hear From Some Of My Past Students Who Are Now Producing Stunning Buttercream Cakes…

Best vanilla cake recipe ever

I love Thao's method as it reflect's my own personal view point on making cakes: focus on quality but save on time. I love the ease of her methods and the sharp final products that my friends and family love, they absolutely love the cakes I make. I can't thank people like Thao enough who share their recipes and expertise to others. Thank you Thao for your generosity and delicious creativity! - Stella Antonio

The best Buttercream

The best online course I have found, after learning the techniques of this course and some others of the online school, now my cakes seem to be perfect besides delicious, a success with my clients ..... it was worth every penny inverted.... Waiting for more and more online courses, thanks for inspiring me and helping me find perfection in a cake :) - Martha

Worthy Investment

Thank you so much Thao for your hard work in creating this course! The notes are detailed yet straight forward and the videos are so valuable for understanding how the notes are put into action. I sat on the fence for quite a while before finally purchasing this course, now I wish I did it sooner as I feel so much more confident with buttercream now. Cannot wait to invest in more courses in the future :) - Natalie King

My game changer

I wasn't sure whether to invest so much money into this course but when I finally did it changed a lot of things for me. The way I make my cakes improved so much, the things I learnt you couldn't learn anywhere else and are things I've never heard before. I know it says it, but I have literally saved hours baking from what I've learnt. So glad I took the plunge. Well worth the money. - Lauren

Revolutionary Teaching!

I took part in a Dont Tell Charles London Masterclass with Thao in August 2018 and now that i have enrolled in the online school, i feel like i step back into that masterclass every single time i log in. This online school has changed the way i run my business and has given me the boost in confidence i needed to elevate my cake making and cake decorating skills. The written material is detailed, the videos are well presented and easy to replicate. Simply put, its just revolutionary teaching! - Mariama Njie

Learn from the Master

This course has changed my life. I've been a cake decorator for over 20 years and this is the best course - it has sharpened my skills, given me efficiencies in the way I decorate (and bake) and given me a new zest for a craft that I love. Thao is simply the BEST teacher and creative in the business - you are truly learning off a master and an artist - thank you so much! - Patricia Bentley

I'll never use another buttercream recipe again

It took me a long time to decide whether or not to invest in the program and I regret that I didn't get it earlier. The buttercream recipe and the overall instructions to get this cake perfect are phenomenal. They make a huge difference in the cakes that I make, both from an efficiency point of view, economical point of view and above all, taste! I can't recommend taking this program enough. As additional testament, I have also purchased other DTC courses (salted caramel, isomalt) which are also fantastic. - Melissa

Excellent

I am so happy that I purchased The Don't Tell Charles online Watercolor Cake Design course! It has elevated my cakes to an amazing level. I didn't know how to design a watercolor cake until I watched the videos and their step by step instructions. Thank you so much. - Monique
