Classes | The Cupcake Oven | Cake Making Classes

LET'S BAKE

CLASSES ARE UNFORTUNATELY ON HOLD AS ESSEX IS IN TIER 4.

PLEASE CHECK BACK REGULARLY AND AS SOON AS RESTRICTIONS ARE EASED AGAIN, SCHEDULED CLASSES WILL PROCEED (UNLESS UNDER BOOKED) AND ALL CLASSES POSTPONED WILL BE RESCHEDULED IMMEDIATELY.

I THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE AND CONTINUED SUPPORT IN THESE DIFFICULT TIMES. THERE IS A LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL!

I HAVE BEEN WORKING WITHIN STRICT COVID GUIDELINES WITH FULL SCREENS AND ALL SURFACES AND HIGH TOUCH AREAS ARE SPECIALLY TREATED.

Join one of my classes to learn how to make beautiful cupcakes, cakes, macarons, cookies just like mine!

Want to learn something new or perfect that skill that has not quite been working as you want? A fun day out with friends, or an opportunity to grow your business - I can help you! Make your next cake your best cake yet.

To see photos of my past classes and to see the gorgeous cakes my students make, take a look at The Cupcake Oven Facebook page.

In my classes, we focus on quality not quantity of new skills learnt. I dedicate classes to techniques so you can learn perfectly, practice under my guidance and be able to recreate those skills again.

My guidance doesn't stop when you leave. I encourage all students to contact me if there are any questions or troubleshooting needed after each class - even just to source new tools! You can also join my Sudents Facebook Page and once you have attended a class.

IF A CLASS YOU'D LIKE TO BOOK IS FULL. PLEASE GET IN TOUCH AND LET ME KNOW - I'LL SEE WHAT OTHER DATES I CAN OFFER

Please understand that due to Covid-19 our class sizes are much smaller and so places get booked very quickly! I am unable to serve refreshments (other than cold water) and our usual cupcake won't be served for the time being. Please make sure you bring drinks and lunch, as well as your mask with you. Aprons and notes will still be supplied, but a pen would also be useful.
