British Sugarcraft Guild - South East Area
Some Branches run children's groups known as Cygnets; where children and young adults up to the age of 18 can learn different cake decorating techniques. All our leaders and helpers are volunteers who are DBS checked.
The National Cygnets Representative produces a quarterly Cygnets' newsletter which is emailed out to the leaders
or Individual Cygnet members to keep them updated. If you have any skills files or branch photos that you wish to
be included in the Cygnet newsletter please contact national office.
