Cake Decorators' Guild of NSW - Newcastle Branch Inc.

invites you to join us as a group of people interested in cake decorating at a professional level, in the Newcastle area. We meet at Trinity Uniting Church Hall, corner Regent St and Portland Place, New Lambton, on the 3rd Saturday each month from February to November. Meetings run from 9:30am to 2.30 pm. There is a demonstration in the morning, followed by a light lunch (bring a plate to share) then a short meeting. This is an opportunity to pick up new hints, different techniques, and meet other like minded people for a very relaxed day. Some meetings are run as workshops, where you bring your own tools, any prior preparation needed, and have the opportunity to try something different in a practical way. There is always plenty of notice for what to bring. The meetings are planned for the year in advance, and suggestions for demonstrators / demonstrations are always welcome. Our first meeting for the year is the 3rd Sat in February, also our AGM, prior to the State AGM. Fees for current year are due by our February meeting if you wish to take part in the voting. $60 covers your fees and insurance. There is an additional one off $10 joining fee. We are always invited to visit other branches for demonstrations and special roster days, held annually by each branch. This is where you see first class Demonstrators (often 4). Our SRD is held on the 3rd Saturday in October. There are also a number of competitions held through the year if you’d like to participate. The Newcastle and Sydney Royal Easter Shows, a “Challenge” weekend for the whole State, or a National weekend of seminars. This is where you’ll see Australia’s best, and possibly International Cake Decorators, and meet other enthusiastic decorators. A weekly entry fee of $5 is charged to cover morning tea, hall hire & demonstrator costs, Visitors are most welcome, the fee is $20 which subtracted from New Membership fee if joining on the same day. A raffle is held at each meeting. If you have any enquiries about our group, please contact
