    It was easy going and fun. Chrysta presented some really good information and background on the whats and whys of baking. Presented in a laid back manner was just right. The raspberry-lime mini bundts we made were to die for (yummie, yum, yum). I will be back.

    This class was absolutely fabulous. The founder and owner of Kiss My Bundt, Chrysta Wilson, leads the class with her store's manager, and they are the nicest and most knowledgeable cake bakers. Chrysta tells her story behind Kiss My Bundt and it's inspirational. The class was so fun, and my mini bundt cakes are delicious. I can't wait to make more at home and treat people in my life. It was so fun!

    Very enjoyable and informative! Each team chooses their flavor of cake and frosting and you make your cakes! Chef Chrysta is a lot of fun and made for a relaxed evening. You take your mini cakes home too!

    Chrysta and her assistant are very personable, and really break down the process of baking step-by-step, and never fail to answer all of your questions. However, I would have liked for the baking groups to be smaller rather than 7-person groups.

    This class was fun! We broke up into teams and each team created their own yummy creation. We sampled each others cakes in class and then got to take home 3 mini bundts to enjoy latter. Cant wait to make my own fun creations!!

    This class was so much fun! I consider myself an avid baker, but am always learning whenever I see how someone else bakes.
    Our groups chose from a list of flavors and designed their own bundt cake starting with a vanilla bundt cake batter base.It's amazing how Chrysta knows how much to add of each ingredient to make a delicious new flavor.
    I will also be taking the next class.

    class was very hands on. Instructor/owner was bubbly and made the class fun. She tought us how to be creative and not to be afraid of trying new things. I came out confident on being able to handle making the best bundt cake on my own.

    What a great way for friends to spend an afternoon away from everything. I learnt so much. Chrisa, the owner, who taught and guided the class is a real baking afficionado. Her real life hands on tips are not to be found in any book. Everyone came up with good quiestions and we all learned form the answers and expertese provided.
    We had wine! and coffee! and tea! and tasted yummy cakes.
    The setting was comfortable and inviting and very relaxing.
    And... you get to meet new people who share a common skill- mastering the kitchen or at least aspiring to do so!

    I really enjoyed the event. We split up into 2 groups of 5 and each created our own cake and buttercream flavor. I'm really excited about creating my own flavors but am waiting for recipe to be emailed. I plan on taking more of her classes. Crysta and Megan were excellent teachers. It was interesting hearing some of the science behind baking.

    Class was casual and information was given from background of the store owner (very knowledgeable) to why use the ingredients, what they look like at different stages of baking and which ingredients can be changed to make it your very own recipe. Enjoyed class

    It was a great evening in the cutest little bakery on 3rd. Chrysta made us all feel relaxed and at home. I gave out some of the bundt cakes to friends and family and they all raved about them. I would attend again for more baking classes

    very entertaining evening for a novice such as myself. My fiancee is a bit more experienced than me, and she had a great time also. Christa owner/instructor...the thing was able to teach class with a fresh wound to her had, being released from the e.r. just moments prior to class starting...trooper!

    Everyone in the class were very supportive and fun; Chrysta and Megan set the tone and were great teachers! I'll definitely be back as well as recommend this friendly, laid-back bakery to everyone I know!

    This was great class. Chrysta is so informative! I bake a fair amount but have never taken a class-I learned so much! She really breaks down the science of baking into understandable terms and analogies. And it was good to go back to basics and learn how to bake a cake step by step the right way, and have fun while learning! The shop is adorable, the cakes are delicious, and flavor creation was a blast. I'll for sure be back for another class.

    I received this class as a surprise 16th Birthday gift from my Mom, since she knows I love to bake. The class was informative, educational, hands on, fun, and YUMMY! I learned a lot more than I expected, and I would recommend it to anyone who loves baking and wants to learn what it really takes to make great cake! Thanks, Chrysta! I'll be back for more.

    What I loved about this class is that I didn't learn how to make just 1 thing. Chrysta talks a lot about the science of baking, so you leave the class with knowledge you can apply to other recipes. Great class! I'll be back!

    We had a really great time. Learned about the process of baking and how that process determines the outcome. It was great hearing about the origins of Kiss My Bundt. Got a sugar buzz tasting standard and exotic flavored bundts. We will be attending other classes at Kiss My Bundt.

    I very much enjoyed this class. Chrysta, the owner and teacher of the class was great! I loved how she opened the class by telling us her story. Who doesn't love a great story? I also appreciated that she kept us fed with cake the entire time we were there. She did a great job of explaining the science of baking a cake. I highly recommend this class for novice bakers and people who want to understand baking rather than just reading a recipe and following it.

    Great class. I learned alot more about baking that I never knew before. It was fun to interact with the people and even get to create a different flavored cake and frosting. I definitely will be going to the What's on top class as well. Chrysta and Megan were great instructors and answered all questions. It was a delicious ending as well. Can't wait for the next class.

    This is an awesome class. Very comfortable with a great group of people. Chryta is SUPER knowledgable and forthcoming with information and alternatives.

    The best part of this class is that you get to pick the flavor of cake and frosting you make. Our group made Orange/Cinnamon Cake with a Vanilla Buttercream Frosting = AWESOME!!

    The other group made a lime/coconut cake with lime buttercream dressing (I think). Also = Awesome!

    This class is super fun!! I mean the bakery is ubber cute and the staff is both friendly and knowledgeable. However, I do have this tidbit of advice: if you're not the kind of person who likes to put up with not getting your way you might have a hard time accepting it. When you guys split up in groups to make your bundt cake and buttercream frosting its a group concept on the flavors. But honestly let it be known if you have a preference because if you don't...man good luck with that coconut basil strawberry flavored cake!!

    I'm DEFINITELY interested in going for another class.

    It was an enjoyable class that started with bite-size samples of bundt cakes paired with wine or champagne. I received some good tips regarding baking. Chysta and her assistant were good. Would have liked more samples to take home. Also, everyone should have washed their hands before beginning the hands-on portion of the class. I'm still waiting for the recipes that were promised.
