Christmas Cake Baking Time!


It was strange to be icing my Christmas cake at the beginning of November but I wanted an example to show in the Christmas cake workshop on Monday so it had to be done. In fact I have been making lots of Christmas samples this week in preparation for a range of workshops for adults coming up in the next couple of months (you can just see the table runner underneath the cake)...


There are still spaces on most of the courses below so why not take some time out before Christmas to learn a new craft or make a handmade gift, we'll do all the washing up!!
