Fab “Bake off” party today with eight 11 year olds making a chocolate Swiss roll!

Judging was incredibly difficult because every single baker produced a delicious Swiss roll and showed fantastic effort. The standard was so high that there were only tiny differences between them. You should all be really proud of what you’ve made!”

It’s been a busy few weeks but we wrapped up with a Christmas themed bake off for 6 children aged 8-12 years.

Golden and flaky pinwheels filled with a variety of fillings followed by a festive chocolate log - a light chocolate sponge filled with cream and covered with a decadent chocolate ganache!

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

I spent this afternoon with 8 year old L who had requested to make churros after seeing them in a previous post of mine.

Keeping with a Spanish 🇪🇸 theme, we also rustled up a quick and easy version of a paella.

When children see the ingredients used in a recipe, they become more interested in the food and are more likely to try new tastes. Watching how different ingredients come together helps them feel familiar and curious instead of unsure. It also gives them a sense of pride and excitement, especially if they help prepare the meal. Seeing, touching, and smelling the ingredients makes the experience fun and encourages them to explore new flavors.

Perfectly seasonal for an Autumnal evening - a chicken, leek and bacon pie.

Miss L, (only 8 years of age!) made this pie for her family in our one to one cookery session this afternoon, followed by a light, airy chocolate mousse!

Our Cookie Art party, suitable for ages 3 and over is always a popular choice.

Today, Miss C chose to decorate butterflies with 13 of her friends and didn’t they do a brilliant job!
