Inspiring

Amy Mahaffey

Shani's classes always inspire you to take your baking to the next level. I never leave without learning a new technique or tip that is helpful. She takes her time to thoroughly explain any technique and answer any questions that you may have.

What a great class! I always feel like a kid on the first day of school. Shani's teaching style is so affirming and makes you excited and eager to learn. I'm particularly excited about making my first cake from scratch along with American Buttercream as well as sauces from scratch. I can't wait to take my recipes to the next level this fall and beyond! Thank you again! -Artney

I’ve had a natural talent for baking for years. But I wanted to solidify my practice and hone my skills to potentially sell my cakes. The tips and tricks were amazing. I learned so much and I look forward to no longer having any mishaps because of the information that was provided. Now, if I could just learn packaging tips (do you use a cake board to package a Bundt cake?) and how to price my cakes? Then ilI’ll be well on my way. Thanks again Shani! Looking forward to see who was selected to attend a free class before the end of the year.

Does this sound like you?

If so, then this class is perfect for you!

  • The thought of making a pie crust makes you break out in hives;

  • Your pie crust attempts have been...less than satisfactory in the past;

  • You want to make a pie crust that is just as easy to work with as a store-bought crust (and much more tasty!);

  • You cannot imagine summer without apple pie;

  • You're looking for a simple pie to execute flawlessly for the Fourth of July this year!

Are You Ready to Learn the Most Fool-Proof Pie Dough Ever?

We've all heard it:

"Pie dough is too hard to make.  Just buy it in the refrigerator section of the grocery store."

That's always an option, Friend, but what about taste?

After this class, you don't ever have to buy pre-packaged pie dough ever again!  This class will teach you the absolutely fool-proof pie dough that both pie novices and seasoned pie pros are loving.

This pie crust is so flaky and *perfect* that you'll wonder how it could be that easy.

BUT IT IS.  

And I can't wait to show it to you on July 1st at 11:00 a.m. ET in this amazing Apple Hand Pies class!

Hi! I'm Shani Whisonant, and I'm the Chief Butter Ambassador at Begin with Butter!

I'm a self-taught baker and I've worked for years to achieve my own baking confidence and consistency. I created the Begin with Butter Home Baking Academy in 2022 to help people overcome their biggest (and smallest!) baking challenges, and to make baking accessible and fun!

The BwB Home Baking Academy is a place where you can finally learn the skills to help you bust through all of your baking barriers so that you can be confident in the kitchen. My greatest joy is teaching others and I can't wait to bake with you!
