Make You A Baker: The Festive Edition 1

Most people will happily sign up for a cooking class because they believe they can cook. Baking has the opposite reputation: too scientific, too fussy, too hard.

This November and December, Melanie Andrade of The Mindful Step, is out to change that with "Make You a Baker: The Festive Edition".

The three-hour workshop, held in partnership with The Cooking Nook in Matosinhos, takes place on Saturday 21 November from 10:00 to 13:00.

The session is limited to ten guests, who will work in small teams.
The morning start with coffee or tea, then take turns baking four classic cakes: a flourless chocolate cake with ganache, a red velvet with cream cheese frosting, a carrot cake, and a berry and almond cake.

Every guest leaves with a box of cakes, and a recipe booklet to bake them again at home.

Dietary note: the workshop doesn't cater for gluten-free, lactose-free or vegan diets, and the kitchen handles gluten, dairy, eggs and nuts.
