Gluten Free Cooking Classes
The classes run weekly on Tuesdays and Saturdays from 10.30 to 1.30. You can book any class you may be interested in for the day that is most suitable to you. I do recommend however, that the first class you choose is "Simple Beginnings". This class encompasses basic baking techniques, tools of the trade and the products that are safe to use for those sensitive to gluten.
As the classes are made for one on one instruction, the maximum number of people in a class is four. That way the pace is set by your ability, and plenty of time can be given when you need it. No prior baking knowledge is required, as you will learn along the way. The cost for each class is $110 and includes all ingredients, the products you have made and will take home and the recipes you have baked from that day. At the end of the class a sample of your baking will feature during High Tea.
The classes available are as follows:
