However, this can vary depending on a few factors, including the number of people in your party, since class prices are tiered based on group size. Seasonality can also have an impact, especially during peak periods when higher demand leads to higher prices.
To get an idea of cost, you can view the per-person starting price on your chosen experience’s web page. Or you can reach out to our Concierge team who are always on hand and happy to help.

Equally, if you have a sweet tooth, they’ll be glad to show you how to whip up a batter and bake the perfect sponge.
Whatever the class, you can expect to learn core skills like ingredient preparation, timing, temperatures and how to know when your bakes are ready. In other words, you’re sure to be a better baker after your class than before you started.

All you need to do is decide which one you’re going to try first!

If you’re ready to get creative in your kitchen, there are plenty of baking classes nearby led by chefs who are ready to welcome you into their homes.
Alternatively, if you want to host at your place, that’s fine, too. All that’s required is a clean and functional kitchen with space for your group to work.
