Rosie's Cronuts

This class is now sold out, but we have a second date on Sun 6th June, book here.

Join the brilliant Rosie Brandreth (GBBO, series 10) live to bake these crispy, buttery golden rings of fried croissant dough filled with a salted caramel creme patisserie or a whipped ganache, not forgetting the cinnamon sugar tossed doughnut holes! 

The class starts at 5pm UK on Sunday 30th May 2021 and all you need is access to Zoom via a computer, an iPad or a phone and you'll be connected! We’ll start off the class with an introductory welcome and some background from Rosie's time on TV, before we ask you to put on your aprons & bake along as you watch Rosie demonstrate all the skills required to make these little treats. 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 Rosie.

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 classes are subject to a minimum number of six attendees signing up. If the minimum number is not met, we will inform those who have purchased a place no later than 48 hours before the class, and will arrange a full refund. All guests will be emailed a link to the class following their booking.
