We are a group of women and men who meet when our schedules allow us for the purpose of sharing the Sugar Arts through talent, instruction, friendships and fun!

We offer hands on workshops at our meetings, as well as sharing our experience with handling clients, using tools of the trade, technique instruction, and various demonstrations for our members.  With our varied and highly experienced members, you can feel free to ask questions and learn more about the wonderful world of Sugar Arts. We love questions!
