Gayle is in the midst of her Wilton Gum Paste and Fondant course and these are 2 of her starting pretty creations(above). She is currently taking the course at Phoon Huat which is far better than her other earlier Wilton course at BIY. The advantage of Phoon Huat is that there is more time for your work, the instructors are very helpful and they do not rush you off. Importantly, while the fee at Phoon Huat is slightly higher than a similar course at BIY, note that Phoon Huat provides everything that you need for the course such as equipment like cake smoother, fondant imprint mat, rolling pin etc which is more than the Wilton standard package so you don't have to buy every single item, which is good for those who want to try out and see if they are keen before committing financially to procuring more items. Another good thing is that you can just come out of your class and pop into the Phoon Huat store to buy all your baking needs after getting all inspired at the classes.Phoon Huat baking courses are held at Geylang Lor 23, One Sims Lane, #01-10/11 Singapore 387355. Transport wise, Phoon Huat is more convenient being just within walking distance(about 10 minutes) to Aljunied MRT station.

Hi, thank you for this wonderful post! Would like to know if phoon huat provides the cakes to decorate as well? Or we have to bake them ourselves? And from your post you said they provide the equipment like cake smoother etc, do you get to bring them home too? Because of the price difference of BIY and Phoon Huat, I'm hesistating whether to join Phoon Huat's classes. Hope you can give me some idea of which is better in terms of the items we get to bring home and the teaching methods, which place teach better etc.
Thank you.

Hi Elina
Phoon Huat provides styrofoam mock cake for you to do your fondant decor over. Yo ucan also bring your own real cake to decorate if you wish.

Hi Elina
Phoon Huat has more friendly instructor, and also provides most of the equipment that you need for the course and of course it belongs to you after the course. BIY is cheaper as you have to buy most of the equipment yourself to bring to the class.
Hope that answers your question.
