Rog’s Mini Course: Create Your Own Festive Cake

In this two-day baking, assembly and decorating course, we will create our own small festive cake. You will develop the flavours and appearance, with the mentor helping bring your ideas to life. No prior knowledge is required.

On the first day, we will bake a moist chocolate sponge and a genoise sponge with nuts, prepare creams and fruit fillings and explore flavour combinations. On day two, we will assemble and chill the cakes, then learn to decorate with candied flowers and herbs and piped creams. You will take your decorated cake home.

• Thursday, 17 December 2026, from 16:00 to 19:00
