Thanks for a great 2017 Grand Holiday Open House!

ByStephanie November 13, 2017

Well, it’s a wrap folks! ISAC’s 2017 Grand Holiday Open House weekend was fantastic! We had two fantastic guests, Tunde Dugantsi and Reva Alexander-Hawk. They, along with Chef Nicholas, offered three exciting and inspiring demonstrations. As has become tradition, this week will be a photo blog dedicated to the weekend’s festivities! However, before I share photos from the event, I wanted to remind everyone that the NL Collection by Katy Sue Designs officially launched this week! You can purchase all of Chef Nicholas’ new molds from our website, click here. If you were at our Grand Holiday Open House, you got to see these amazing molds in action before anyone else in the world!

I loved every single project at this year’s Grand Holiday Open House. From Tunde’s gingerbread candle holder, to Reva’s Holiday Unicorn cake and cupcakes, to Chef Nicholas’ mug cakes and apple cider gelatin…. I don’t think I could even try to pick a favorite! Thank you to our guest instructors, Tunde Dugantsi and Reva Alexander-Hawk! Thank you to all of our students who came out this past weekend! We hope you had a great time learning with us!

Sweetly yours,

Stephanie
