What a great experience! Thanks Geoff and team for this 5h session with great theoretical and practical parts. I’ve learned a lot about sourdough bread and significantly improved my technique. My loaf after the course is on the photo.

Took the pies and tarts class. Gave a selection of ways to use butter, flour, salt, and water in different ways to make the desired crust. It's a lot of fun. Tons to eat and bake. The instructors are knowledgeable and interesting and make you feel capable of making the creations again at home. Worthwhile.
