About this Class

This class is for the beginner cookier or for the person who is just curious about what cookie decorating is all about! If you have limited experience with sugar cookies, found yourself frustrated with royal icing, or if you're trying to have fun with family or friends, this is the class for you! We’ll be decorating a set of 6 spooky-fun Halloween themed cookies - prepare for a “gourd” time with your pumpkin spice and everything nice!

We provide everything you will need from cookies, icing, sprinkles, and a box to take your awesome creations home in - we just need YOU! Each to-be-baker gets 6 cookies, 4 icing colors, sprinkles, and all the tools necessary to knock this cookie class out of the park! Everything is prepped right before class – so no baking or icing mixing required. Just decorate !

This class is on Friday, October 25th and starts at 6:30pm sharp so we can have enough time to decorate and answer along the way. Come by yourself, bring your best friend, or bring the family - we have seating for up to 30 people! It's a blast whether you're coming with a friend, family member, or solo!

This class is good for ages 10+, but if you'd like to leave the kiddos at home, purchase an add-on kit (more on that below)! The kits are great for kids at home, plus - we'll send you the class PowerPoint so you can teach them yourself! *Please be aware that alcohol (wine) will be served at this event. Participants must be aged 21+ (with a valid ID) in order to enjoy wine.

The class will be heldat the The Venue at Irongate in Mebane, NC located at 2540 Lynch Store Road.

*Please be aware that every ticket purchase includes a FREE glass of wine! Other non-alcoholic complimentary beverages will also be available during the event.

Things to Bring

Wondering what you need to bring to have a successful time decorating? Well – nothing’s required – but here’s the things we recommend if you’d like to elevate your experience!

· Bring an apron! Things can get messy when you’re workin’ with royal icing – so grab an apron (bonus points if it’s cute – I’ll definitely be asking where you got it).

· Bring your glasses! There’s a reference slide deck to help you decorate, but if things get blurry far away, seeing glasses may be a great bet.

· Bring your phone! I love it when students take pictures throughout class – so bring a phone!

· Bring a good attitude! Cookies are fun, but they're also challenging! A good attitude makes all the difference.

About The Never Ending Cookie Jar

"Life is just better with homemade cookies"

That's our motto, and we truly belive that cookies make life so much sweeter.

We are a subscription based cookie company that has been in business for going on 5 years now. We are a small, family-run business located in Mebane, NC. We bake solely out of our own Cookie Cottage, and don't have a store-front just yet. Each month we offer a new and unique gourmet cookie flavor to our customers. Who knows? Maybe we will even bake some up for our cookie class students?

DeAnne, the owner, really can't resist super cute sugar cookies. Cute cookies slathered in colorful Royal Icing are her absolute favorite, but she HATES decorating sugar cookies alone. Cue our Cookie Classes. This way, we can all decorate together and leave with some beautiful, yet scrumptious, treats.

Cancelation / Refund / Sick Policy

:( We understand that life happens so that’s why we allow you to cancel up to 3 days (72 hours) before the class. Should you cancel prior to 72 hours before the class, you will receive a full refund. You can always transfer your spot to a friend though (and what a nice friend you are). Any cancelation after the 72 hour window, will not be refunded. We will be happy to roll your funds into a credit for any of our other cookie products or classes.

What if I'm sick the day of class:

Please do NOT show up to class ill. Just send us an email BEFORE class starts and let us know you are under the weather. We will be happy to work with you to find another class date or make other arrangements in the event you are sick on class day.

What Happens If I Don't Show Up or Email Prior To Class:

If I do not hear from you before your class’s start time, and you do not show up for class, I won’t be able to offer you a refund or roll you into the next class even if you're sick. So please reach out before class if you’re feeling sick!

DIY / Add-On Kits

Order your sugar cookie class kit and take the class home with you to teach a child or friend! These class kits come with everything you'll use in class, and I’ll email you the class PowerPoint so you can follow our step-by-step instructions from home! Cookie Class DIY Kits are created before your class, and you'll pick them up and take them with you after class.

How long can a kit last? Depending on how you store your icing, your kits can last for a week or longer. Freezing cookies keep them fresh for a long time, but I recommend using your kit as soon as possible - ideally in the first week after you've taken it home. Cookies are heat sealed for freshness – but again, use it in under a week to make sure it tastes the best.

Allergen Disclaimer / Class Cancelation Policy / Weather Policy / Fees Disclaimer

Allergens: Heads up – these cookies include the following ingredients: flour, butter, sugar, eggs, various extracts, powdered sugar, meringue powder, and corn syrup.

Please note – these cookies are prepared in a cottage kitchen that also bakes with common, known allergens: such as nuts, soy, gluten, dairy, etc.

Please consider your allergies before registering.

Class Cancelation Policy: Classes may be canceled at the discretion of me, the event host. This rarely happens – but in that extremely rare event that it does, you’ll receive a 100% refund including your Eventbrite fees.

Classes with attendance below 7 will be canceled. Don’t be sad! You can either have your ticket moved to a future class (along with my apologies), or a full refund! I’ll let you know if your class has low attendance 5 days before the event is canceled so that you can bring a friend (hint hint) or find other plans for that day.

Weather Policy: Sometimes Jack Frost doesn’t play well with cookie class schedules, and Mother Nature seems to be takin’ notes. In the event of inclement weather, I’ll contact you with options – these may differ depending on the weather event but rest assured – we’ll figure something out!

Eventbrite Fees: Your ticket price includes your ticket fees; however, Eventbrite does not refund its fees. If you cancel your ticket and request a refund prior to the cancelation window expiring, I’ll happily give you a refund less the Eventbrite fee – since I don’t get this fee back either. Eventbrite keeps it regardless of whether you show up or cancel. I know – I hate it too!
