I have done 3 of Melissa’s online classes. Mother’s Day (2021) Wedding (2023) &Easter (2022) and they are incredible! The amount of detailed instruction is second to none, both in her written and video guides. I have a gf who was absolutely terrified of florals (hmmm, me too 🤭) but with Melissa’s fantastic tutorials, have overcome that!! It seriously feels like she’s there, personally guiding you along every step of the way. You can probably tell I’m a fan - but honestly, have never done better classes (and I’m a serial class taker 😆)

I have taken 3 of your online classes (Butterfly Decorating, Petals and Prosecco, Wedding and Florals) and each one has been extremely thorough with detailed instructions and demonstrations. The detailed list of supplies with links, icing color formulas, and templates to hand cut cookies or pipe transfers, makes it easy to replicate all the cookies in the set. Each class uses unique techniques that are explained and demonstrated, so I can easily follow-along. These classes have helped me enhance my decorating skills and have fun throughout the process.

I have done 5 or 6 online classes. I loved them! Melissa gives you every single piece of information that you need for the class. The videos are easy to follow and you can keep going back if you miss something. Five ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I enrolled in her online Christmas 2023 class. I am a self taught hobbyist with about 2 years experience. Her classes are so thorough and thoughtfully laid out. Her formulas for colors are spot on! With a written guide and videos, it is like having her stand over you in the kitchen! I learned so much and had such a good time with it. She is one of the best teachers out there! Take this class, she will up your game. My cookies were my most beautiful set in my cookie journey. Thank you, Melissa!

Melissa's classes are my go to when I want to learn to decorate gorgeous cookies or any new techniques she comes up with. Her classes are so easy to follow, she gives you all the information from start to finish. The video's the come with the classes are easy to follow along, you can stop and start anytime. The most creative and fun classes to take. I always love getting an email saying there is a new class coming out. Please don't hesitate and buy one or all of her classes, she will teach you to decorate like a pro!

Melissa's color guide has helped me make the correct color decision. I have no idea how she does it! She makes it so easy, just pick out a color you want for your cookie, look in her guide, mix up the colors and it is the exact color that was needed. No mixing wrong icing colors anymore with her guide. Another winner from Melissa!

The Miller's Wife Royal Icing Colour Guide (Digital Download)

$18.00 CAD ~~$45.00 CAD~~

Colour Formula Guide 2022- 60% OFF THROUGHOUT BLACK FRIDAY SALE!!! SATURDAY, NOV 29-MONDAY DECEMBER 1 AT MIDNIGHT EST!!

Take the guesswork out of colour mixing!!

This purchase will give you access to a digital download colour formula guide that includes 126 colour formulas. The formulas have been created with a mix of Americolor Gel colours and Sugar Art Master Elite Colours. You will find many of my most often used colours in here along with a cookie recipe and my royal icing recipe. There is also a section that offers colour mixing tips and some other helpful information. Please note that a few of the colour formulas have been in past classes but they are favourites so I included a handful in the guide. I have listed this as a royal icing colour guide, but I have had feedback that the colours work well with macarons, fondant and butter cream also, but since I have not tested this myself, I cannot speak to it in detail. Please read the disclaimer below in full before purchase. You will be asked to agree to the conditions before you check out.

As this is just a digital guide, you will not be shipped any physical printed copies of this product. The guide download is more compatible on a computer, if you have issues on a mobile device, please contact me. Due to the nature of this product there are no refunds.

Disclaimer:

This guide uses synthetic colour gels. There are not and will not be natural colour recommendations or substitutions made for this particular guide. In light of the current phase out of certain food dyes in the US, this guide may become less relevant as many of the colour gels used will likely be discontinued in the coming years. If you decide to purchase this guide, please be aware that there will not be any refunds processed if and when the above mentioned situation occurs. That said, I am currently watching very closely as many of our trusted food colouring producers and suppliers navigate this change. Once there are some tried and true natural colour lines available, I do plan to create a new guide based on natural colour options that I will make available as a separate purchase.

This is NOT a colour theory class. It is a guide that contains formulas using mostly Americolor Gel colours and some Sugar Art ME colours. There are no instructional videos, it is written material only. There are no substitutions made for using the guide with other brands. Colours can appear differently from screen to screen as well as printer colours and outcomes can vary. Unfortunately, this is something I cannot control but must mention it here as the guide may not view the same on your screen as it did mine. I have included many colours that I use regularly but you will not find every colour I have ever used in this guide. I am always reincorporating leftover icing and often times I am unable to tell you what I used to create a colour in my more recent sets.

Another note, as we do not use very many exact unit’s of measure in the guide, results can vary, even I sometimes I don’t get the exact same colour twice, but close is all we can strive for. We are not machines, we are creating hand made items, there is no such thing as perfection. In addition to that, please note that gel colours can vary from batch to batch so it is possible that the bottle of colour you are using is a slightly different colour than mine. This is another factor that I cannot control but at the end of the day you should come out with something close, which is all we can ask for.

Lighting is a huge factor in how your colours read which I do outline in the guide. In some lights the colours may look darker than the swatches. I did my best to match the swatches in the guide to the actual cookie colours, unfortunately I don’t have a colour matching tool like a paint store, this was all done manually by eye and using photo editing programs. So they are as close as I could get them, but may not be exact.
