Katie Krumwiede joined Community Education in early 2023 bringing her delightful decorated sugar cookie classes. Students of all ages enjoy her love for teaching and cookie decorating and Katie enjoys connecting with the Moorhead Community.
“I've loved baking since my Easy-Bake-Oven days; adding gummy worms into my brownies, and decorating cakes for my mom's birthday,” Krumwiede explained. After teaching elementary school for a decade and then moving into the bakery business, teaching decorating classes is a natural fit. “It just really combined my two loves,” she said with a smile.
Katie has offered a number of classes through Community Ed including holiday and seasonal decorated cookies. On the menu for this spring and summer:
Ice Cream Truck decorated cookies
Barbie themed cookies
Camping themed cookies
