From the traditional Yule log to our take on  stollen. At the end of this fun, festive course, you’ll be heading home with a bag full to bursting with delicious treats to share with friends and family this Christmas (if they last that long!).

With baking enjoying a resurgence in popularity thanks for programmes such as The Great British Bake Off, this course gives students a sound grounding in a wide range of baking and decorating skills. No prior baking experience is necessary.
