You’ll bake along in tandem with Dan, learning many tips and tricks a long the way as you perfect all the skills required to make Dan's delicious take on the Portuguese egg tart pastry. Dan will also be on hand to answer your questions, be those about baking or his experiences of being involved on such an iconic television show.
