Let’s Bake along!

I organise interactive and engaging baking workshops for individuals of all ages, ranging from adults and teens to children as young as 4 years old, right in my beloved kitchen, aptly named ‘Crumbs and Chatters.’ It offers hands on experience where participants work together to create delicious food with guidance ensuring that everyone enjoys the process and create magic in the kitchen.

Regardless of your skill level, my workshops promise an exciting culinary journey. We delve into a wide array of cuisines, ranging from English Brunches and Indian Biriyani to pavlovas, Italian Panna Cotta, French Vol-au-vents, Moroccan Couscous, Korean Fried Chicken, Greek Moussaka, and many more.

What distinguishes my baking workshops is their emphasis on exploring beyond traditional sweet desserts. While baking is often associated with cakes, cookies, or desserts, I challenge that notion. There’s a whole world of savoury delights and culinary adventures to be discovered within the realm of baking. My workshops aim to shatter these preconceived notions, encouraging participants to explore new flavours and culinary techniques.

When organizing a bake-along, I ensure to include recipes that encompass both savory and sweet dishes, allowing participants to enjoy a complete meal at the end of the session. I do charge a small fee for organizing the bake-along, which covers the costs associated with the event. This way, everyone can join in the culinary fun and share a delicious meal at the table.

• A typical kids bake-along menu will include 2 recipes; a main-course savoury recipe (like a pizza/ pie/ lasagna/tacos) and a dessert (like cookies/muffins/ mini cheesecake, etc) to be completed in 2 hours or lesser.
  
• A bake-along for adults would include a complete menu that includes a starter, maincourse, side / salad dish and a dessert to be completed in around 2 – 2.5 hours.

That’s the usual plan! With many hands at work, we can complete tasks efficiently as the workload gets divided. And yes, it’s not a demonstration; it’s a hands-on workshop! 🙂 I strive to create recipes from scratch, using the finest ingredients whenever possible. However, I may take the easier route occasionally or provide alternatives for simplicity. You’ll receive the recipes via WhatsApp or in print.

I can assure you that our time together will be full of learning experiences. Not only will you have the opportunity to learn something new, but you might also teach me a thing or two along the way. Most importantly, we’ll have a fantastic time together and indulge in some finger-licking good food.

Witnessing the sense of achievement in children when they bake with me is truly heartwarming. There’s something incredibly special about seeing them create something with their own hands. These moments are precious to me, and I cherish each one as we work together in the kitchen.

Private workshops: If you’re keen on organizing workshops for adults, children or teens, I’d be thrilled to host them. Together, we can nurture their cooking skills, spark curiosity about ingredients, encourage a love for healthy and delicious food, and instill a sense of accomplishment.

If you’re interested in having me be part of your organization, hosting a workshop for your office, or providing personal cooking lessons, please don’t hesitate to reach out via email at crumbsandchatters@gmail.com. I’m excited to discuss the possibilities and explore this opportunity further. Thank you!
