Due to the recent government restrictions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, this class has been rescheduled for Friday, 24 July 2020. We missed this class for Easter in April, but we can pretend it is Easter in July!!! Ha!

Easter is fast approaching (have you seen all the Hot Cross buns around) and for an Italian that means baking more sweets to have on hand for those celebratory pre-easter visits from family & friends. In this class, you will bake and take home authentic (Calabrese Southern) Italian dolce. We will enjoy sample these along with an espresso, but only after eating a light Italian lunch.

We will be absolutely spoilt for choice!

This workshop was originally scheduled for Friday, 8 May and titled ‘A Mother’s Day Special’. It was planned to celebrate being a mum or having a mum with a High Tea workshop where sponge cake & scones plus more would be baked. Well, Mother’s Day is over, but we can still celebrate Mother’s in high tea style! I have changed this class a little – we will still bake scones, however, I will share my love of Italian cakes as well. We will bake a sponge cake, however, it will become a moist panna cotta sponge cake. We will also bake a traditional Calabrese ‘Torta di Mele e Ricotta’ (Apple & Ricotta cake) to showcase glorious winter seasonal apples. It will be a lovely day of baking Italian torte (and scones). There is only one spot left for this class.
