Learn Back-to-School Cookie Decorating with Charming, Creative Techniques

Capture the magic of new pencils, fresh notebooks, and that unmistakable first-day feeling — one adorable, detail-filled cookie at a time.

Sweet School Daze is the perfect class for anyone who wants to create heartfelt, impressive cookies without needing a ton of colors, tools, or advanced experience.

Designed to make back-to-school decorating feel fun and totally doable, this class walks you through every design step by step so you can confidently create cookies that look thoughtful, polished, and genuinely special — whether you're gifting them to a teacher, surprising a student, or just having a little creative fun in the kitchen.

Not only will you decorate charming school-themed designs, you'll also master these techniques:

  • Wonderful Watercolors — Learn how to turn simple pen marks into beautifully painted creations just by adding water — it's easier than it looks and the results are stunning
  • Edible Food Markers — Fun, approachable, and perfect for all skill levels (bonus: a great one to do with the kids!)
  • Minimal Consistencies for Maximum Creativity — You only need a handful of colors and a little imagination to turn a simple cookie into a canvas — less prep, more creating

As you bring chalkboards, bright primary colors, and drawn and painted textures to life, you'll build versatile skills that can be carried into countless future cookie sets.

It's perfect for teacher appreciation, staff appreciation gifts, first day of school celebrations, last day countdowns, or anytime you want to make someone feel seen and celebrated with something sweet. And if you want to make it a family affair — let the kids jump in on the designs! 🎒📚✏️

Hi, I’m Lauren

and I’m obsessed with all things design, cookies, and creating joy in the kitchen. Now I get to help other women find joy in their own kitchens!

Once upon a time, I was a graphic designer with a competitive
resume. But becoming a mother to a child with serious medical challenges disrupted my life in the most difficult and beautiful way. I gave up my graphic design career to take care of my son 24/7.

Eventually, I found my groove and was ready to do something just for me.

That’s when I designed my first cookie, and I’ve never looked back.

For the past four years, I’ve thrown every ounce of my energy into learning the ins and outs of cookie baking and decorating. And I’ve managed to turn really impressive-looking designs into easy-to-learn techniques that anyone can perfect with the right guidance. I’ve created dozens of mini classes and resources to help my students fall in love with this hobby like I did, and some of them have even gone on to launch their own businesses with my help.

We’ve created a really tight-knit community of cookiers in our little corner of the internet, and we’d love for you to be a part of it.
