Camping Cake - Bushcraft Bake Off
Details
If you are anything like me, you wouldn't want to do anything else on your birthday but be outdoors right? Whether by yourself or with friends, a birthday wouldn't be a birthday without cake!
Wouldn't you love to know how you can muster up a cake while you are out in the field? And if you are wondering, is this even possible? I can confirm, after doing a bit of research, forking hell, you absolutely can!
So come and bake a bushcraft cake with us! It's easier than you think. You only see people cooking savoury dishes or packet desserts. Baking (or steaming) a cake will come in handy one day to celebrate any occasion and actually be great fun to learn.
This event is on the same day as Phil's birthday - hence the theme! Happy birthday Phil 🥳. He is a much loved member of the group and friend.
THE RULES 🤓
🎂It has to be a cake of some description. Any cake. It can be as small or as big as you like
🎂You can bring pre-prepared mixtures, icings and toppings from home if you want. You can even use packet mixes. It just has to be cooked and assembled on site in camping cookware.

I have deliberately excluded recipes! This is to increase the chances of us all baking something different. Your cake does not need to be perfect, we're just going to experiment, have fun and learn together.
Please note - this event is not a formal training event. I am not an expert in baking bushcraft cakes. This is a fun, collaborative, peer-led event rather than an instructional workshop. Attendees are responsible for their own participation and safety.
If you have any questions or tips, please leave a comment. Alternatively, you can mesaage me. I'd love to hear from you,
