In this class Rosie will guide you through her recipe for baking these buttery pastries without having to wait two days to taste them! Alongside the classic croissant, Rosie will teach you to bake Pain au Chocolate and your very own homeade marmalade. 

Bake With A Legend Online Classes are an interactive experience, where we limit group sizes to around 25 to ensure an intimate online setting. Not only do you have your celebrity baker teaching you, but you also have one of our brilliant Bake With A Legend hosts who will ensure the smooth running of your experience ensuring everyone is enjoying themselves.

If you need any help at any point during the class, you’ll be encouraged to raise your hand and your baker will be virtually joining you in your own kitchen in no time to assist you!

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