Chef Alan...I have to mention this! One of the main reasons I love you (besides the fact that I LEARN from you!) is that while you are very professional, you don't take this TOO seriously! Please don't ever decide to change your videos and cut out little accidents or mistakes. Your calm demeanor when this happens gives us the confidence and courage to continue and not give up! You aren't afraid to let us know that stuff happens...even to the best of bakers. Thanks for another wonderful lesson! God bless...
You have the kindest, most patient tone. You seem to fit in the most basic, beginner details without it sounding too repetitive or childish for more experienced decorators. Just amazing, sir, and I thank you so much. I took a class 30 years ago so I could do cakes for my sons when they were little. I hauled out my gear to do a cake for my 4 year old granddaughter today and needed a refresher course!. You are my hero!
Tina Roberts Thank you so much for the kind words. Glad to hear you are decorating once again. Its amazing what our grandchildren will inspire us to do again :)
Sorry to be offtopic but does anyone know a tool to get back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly lost my login password. I would appreciate any help you can offer me!
Love your instructional videos. I've watched about 3 hours this morning. I'm determined to teach myself how to make beautifully decorated cakes and cupcakes and I think by watching you I will be able to accomplish that goal. Thank you.
I do not subscribe to many videos or post, Less the five but i have always wanted to learn piping, something i felt i could never do. This site has encouraged me to learn piping. I bake and cook but shied away from piping until now. Thank you. I have subscribed to this site and look forward to a new chapter in my baking. 58:56 58:56 58:56 58:56 58:56
YOU ARE TEACHING WITH A PASSION WHICH MAKES IT SO INTERESTING I WISH ALL TEACHERS WERE LIKE YOU MUCH MORE PEOPLE WOULD BE MORE LEARNT I DO PASTRY SO THIS IS VERY INTERESTING TO ME CONGRATULATION TO YOU
I’ve been looking for you tube videos to teach my daughters hair to decorate cakes and I’ve found yours to be the best. We will begin our classes soon. While we watch stop and practice. Thank you for giving the gift of your knowledge and skills to us! I could teach them verbally but you are so though that I felt I didn’t need to recreate the wheel.
I am so impressed by your teaching. Enrolled in great school and find your lessons provide the exact clarity needed to progress to the next level - thank you!
Being a Wilton certified cake decorator and having watched numerous videos, these are the best! Better than the Wilton videos. I appreciate all of the explanation and how it was filmed. Keep up the great work and I look forward to seeing more. Thanks!
Mr Tetreault is a brilliant teacher! I have learned so much from him. His teaching ability comes naturally. When I need to learn a technique, this is the first place I come. Thank you for all the education you have provided so generously.
You are the most informant Baker on the internet! Your clear, your precise, your a fabulous chef!!!! Thank you for making these videos! You have definitely helped me better my decorating technic. You sir are a Gem!
This guy is so generous to provide so much detail to help someone who has never piped before. Sure, he is selling his frosting in the process and tools from his sponsor, but the quality instruction he provides is worth listening to the sales pitch. It's what we call entrepreneurship.
I have started watching all of the teaching videos. I really love how he shows step by step and explains why something is done a certain way. That really helps with the understanding of why it is done this way. Can't wait till I get to try some of the tips. Baking from scratch is new to me (since I usually use box mixes), but with all of the stress in the oil field in south Louisiana I find baking relaxes me. Thank you for your videos and keep on teaching!
You are absolutely wonderful and calm and you give us all confidence. I inherited all my mother's cake decorating equipment. And even though I'm old I'm now getting to it! Thank you again and again.
I am still a novice in my cake decorating skills within the framework of our bakery department. I appreciate your explanation of tips, couplers, filling of bags, burping bags, etc. I think the presence of a calm teacher lends to give a more positive energy for the novice cake decorator.
I am slowly learning to decorate cakes & cupcakes. The thing I appreciated most is your method of fixing mistakes. They happen a lot to beginners and it's reassuring it happens to professionals also. Even though this video is 4 years old, the techniques don't change. And you have great patience & explain everything very clearly. Thank you!!! I can't wait to watch your other tutorials!
Just discovered you on here. So glad I did! I’ve always been creative, whether in woodworking, fine art painting, music.. but I just recently discovered the joy of cake decorating. I’ve found the more I do the more more I want to learn. You’re a Fantastic teacher! You’re videos have been invaluable! Thank you for sharing your talent and knowledge. You are truly an artist!
No matter how many times I ice a cake, I always watch Chef Alan first because I love how he teaches. I wish I could take a class from him in real life!
Thanks you so much chef Allan, you are so amazing when it comes to your teachings. I really enjoy and be perfectioned watching you with your tips. I really need to learn more from you, may God bless you abundantly.
I have watched hundreds of decorating videos and always come back to these when I really want to catch on! These are the most comprehensive teaching videos and are good guides for people who really want to learn! They should be used as reference guides for all decorators
Mr Alan, I love watching you decorate, you make it look so easy when in fact it takes practice. Thank you so much for the informative videos. Trying to learn in Georgia!
Thank you so much for making these videos. Your method and mannerism in teaching are exceptional. I appreciate the effort you take to explain "why" you do things a certain way.
I want to say thank you for your videos I never was very good with flowers and borders. I had a friend who asked me to make a double heart cake for Valentines and a birthday in one. I found your videos and watched as many as I could so I could decorate the cake. I have all boys so have never done a fancy or girly cake until now thanks to you I am very proud of my cake. You made it so easy.
I have taken two Wilton classes but forgot how to do a lot I learned years ago! Thanks to ur videos I can get back to what I love and can be better than I ever was!
I cannot believe this,i want to self tutor to do cake decorating, candy making, fondant work and gum paste,your channel has everything. Thank you for this,this will be my go to channel. Love from South Africa.

This guy is so generous to provide so much detail to help someone who has never piped before. Sure, he is selling his frosting in the process and tools from his sponsor, but the quality instruction he provides is worth listening to the sales pitch. It's what we call entrepreneurship.
I never tire of his tutorials. That soothing clear voice....the best!
