With all my classes you will receive a nice cup of something and a baked treat on arrival plus a cooked lunch with a glass of wine or soft drinks and refreshments throughout the day. All classes are very relaxed and the aim is to give confidence and an understanding of baking in a gentle and relaxing way. I really look forward to meeting you and welcoming you to my classes.

New class type 1
I've been meaning to try out some new types of classes. I've really found a love for making big celebration cakes. In this class we will make a vanilla or lemon layer cake and cover it with buttercream and handmade sugar-paste decorations. This will be a perfect class if you have a celebration you'd like to try making a cake for. Class will start at 10am and will aim to be finished around 15:30 .
This is a new class that I am running. There is limited space so please book early as not to be disappointed as I only have one this year. We will bake the basic white loaf from my book and we will look at different types of styles and toppings to make it individual to you. Next on the list is a blueberry muffin loaf and lastly some shortcrust mini quiches and sweet tarts. 10am-3:30pm.
Pastry
Within these classes I'll teach how to make the below pastries, and you'll get to take
them away with you. 10am- 4pm

Cupcake Decorating Classes (£120) (Full payment required to secure)
About 2 years ago I found my love for creating these dainty little cakes. I'd always thought myself not very artistic until this time, well 2 years and probably over 2500 cupcakes later Paul Hollywood told me mine were sublime, good enough to sell in any store, I'd like to share my knowledge with you. Classes will included use of all the tools you will need to produce 12 stunning cupcakes which you will get to take home. We will go through methods of frosting and sugarcraft and you will get to work with both. The use of a vast selection of cutters and moulds, basically a good foundation to making lovely cupcakes.

ReplyDeleteHi Jo,
ReplyDeleteThank you for such a lovely day, I so enjoyed attending your bread class today, as ever you are a great teacher and today's class has given me the confidence to try making more handmade bread at home. I can't wait to taste all the lovely bread I have fetched home with me and am looking forward to putting your tips and advice to good use in my own kitchen. Jessie xxx
Hi Jo,
ReplyDeleteyes, I enjoyed today too. It was so good to have so many giggles while learning so much - even if you did make us knead and knead!! You made us feel so welcome, it felt like we'd all known each other for ever. Dinner tonight was a simple dish of prawns in garlic with the lovely tear n share rolls, followed by a sticky orange and pecan roll - delicious. Thank you so much, Nicky xx
