Baking Basics

A hands-on foundation course for beginners and aspiring bakers, covering cookies, brownies, tea cakes and celebration cakes.

Vanilla tea cake, chocolate brownies and chocolate-chip cookies on a cream worktop

Baking Basics is where most bakers should start. Over several days in the studio you’ll bake through four foundations of home baking: cookies, brownies, tea cakes and celebration cakes.

Each bake is taught hands-on, with attention to the technique and to the reasons behind it, so you understand what makes a cookie spread, a brownie fudgy or a cake rise evenly.
