ABOUT OUR WORKSHOPS

***News Update ***Autumn '24

​After nearly ten years of teaching, we have now closed the doors at the school here in Cambridgeshire. We will no longer be running workshops from our premises in Kingston, but I shall continue to teach at venues across the UK and in Europe. I will be keeping you updated via the website about all the upcoming classes and retreats. Please also follow us on social media (Facebook or Instagram) to keep an eye on news releases.

See our Workshop Calendar for the current list of pop-ups and retreats for the forthcoming year.

   OUR TUSCAN RETREATS

Although our UK classes are no longer running on a regular basis, we are delighted to continue our Partnership with Castello di Potentino, where we offer bread and baking retreats in the heart of the Tuscan countryside. These 7 day retreats are all-inclusive, including full board, excursions and the fabulous wines made at the castle by winemaker Charlotte Horton (flights and transfers excluded).

Find out more about our Tuscan retreats here.

    WHAT SHOULD I BRING?

We will provide all the tools and ingredients you'll work with, as well as aprons. You'll just need comfy shoes! Wear something with sleeves that can be rolled up, as baking can get messy.

At the end of the course we'll send you home with all  the recipes and skills to get you started on your very own baking journey!
