Leave the daily grind behind and relax with a cake decorating class

There’s nothing more soothing than spending time in a cosy kitchen, surrounded by spicy flavours and sweet scents, baking homemade pastry, cakes or pies (apart from maybe eating them afterwards!)

Not only that, but cake and cupcake decorating classes are also a great opportunity to connect with fellow bakers; you’ll be able to escape the day and chat all things fondant while you work on your fabulous creations together. Plus, at the end of the cake making course, you’ll be able to put your feet up, feel proud of what you’ve achieved and enjoy the fruits of your labour – and what could be more relaxing than cake and a cuppa?
