Carlos Lischetti Masterclass
Carlos Lischetti's teaching in October 2023 was highly appreciated, and we are excited to announce that his next visit has been scheduled for October 2024. Stay tuned for updates to ensure you don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to learn from one of the best.
Carlos Lischetti has been passionate about cake decorating, baking and pastry for over 20 years. As a child, he loved spending time in the kitchen of his family home in Rosario, Argentina, baking cakes for his family and experimenting with sugar paste decoration. His curiosity led him to take various local cake decorating courses, which helped him to master different modelling techniques. When he decided to turn his hobby into his profession, he continued to work in Rosario until he felt the need to attend more courses to further his skills. This time, he went to Paris and London.
Developed alongside his twin brother Elio's animated sketches, Carlos' trademark style is now recognised worldwide. His first book, Animation in Sugar, was launched in 2012 and has since been reprinted several times and published in four languages. More translations are expected. His work is regularly featured in Cakes & Sugarcraft magazine, and he has a large following around the world. Carlos travels extensively, teaching students at many internationally renowned culinary schools. https://carloslischetti.com/

Carlos Lischetti Masterclass - Hugo
This is Carlos' design for the last visit. Check back for his next visit with fresh designs.
This class is designed for beginners or anyone who wants to perfect their modelling techniques. This character has been designed to include as many modelling techniques as possible for a one-day class and mainly to understand how Carlos works with standing characters and how to use internal support.
Carlos has also focused on how to get a sturdy one-piece structure to achieve maximum strength and avoid breakages during the modelling process. We will also pay attention to his facial expression and how to achieve a lightweight head, especially for characters with big heads, such as Disney characters. Finally, we will complete the scene with flowers and a little ladybug or any other object that students may want to add if time allows.

This class is designed for beginners and anyone with a bit of experience.

- Ranunculus that is easy to adapt for mass production
- Different variations of Poppies in colours and shapes

Wafer paper flowers are less likely to lose shape in high humidity conditions, making them an excellent option for all sugar crafters.
