Dan's Vegan Macaron

Join the brilliant Dan Beasley Harling (GBBO, series 9) live from London who will guide you through making delicious vegan macaron. These macaron are all created using aquafaba, an interesting technique with new skills to learn. In this class we will be flavouring the macaron with delicious fillings of raspberry jelly and a vegan rose buttercream.

We’ll start off the class with an introductory welcome and some background from Dan's time on TV, before we ask you to put on your aprons & bake along as you watch Dan demonstrate all the skills required to make this favourite treat. Our class will take around 2 hours as we bake our masterpieces, before you can tuck into the fruits of your labour all whilst hearing fantastic memories and stories from Dan.

Tickets are priced at £35 for individuals and £50 for groups of two or more that will join from the same household. Places are non-refundable and cannot be cancelled or altered after purchase. All guests will be emailed a link to the class on the Monday prior.
