All our chefs are skilled and passionate artisan bakers, with unrivalled knowledge of everything from Sour Dough to Croissants. We share all that skill in our celebrated one hundred percent hands on bread making classes.
The most delicious, healthy and special of breads, sour dough offers not just a better tasting bread it is also has a low GI due its acidity, is low in gluten due to hydrolysis so is much easer to digest and and delivers slow release energy. What’s not to like?
While our classic sour dough breads rise, we mix and bake with a 24-hour starter to make our legendary Swedish cinnamon buns using sour dough and also making small, crusty, seeded bread rolls.
We start by gathering around for morning coffee or tea with something freshly baked, and finish off by enjoying a light lunch with freshly made bread, while the final trays of bread bake.
The class includes full recipe packs, plenty to baked bread as well a a slow rising dough to bake off the next day and your own freshly created starter which will hopefully bring you years and years of happy sour dough baking.
WE DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS CLASS FOR COMPLETE NOVICE BAKERS AS BAKING WITH A WILD FERMENT IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM USING A COMMERCIAL YEAST. WE THEREFORE SUGGEST THAT THOSE ONLY JUST EMBARKING ON THEIR BREAD BAKING JOURNEY START BY TAKING OUR BEGINNERS’ BREAD CLASS.
We are found at the very end of Purbeck Road (off Hills Rd by the sixth form centre) where you turn left by Abbey college and then carry straight on for about 60m to the white awnings you will see ahead.
Please note that there is very limited parking on site. We recommend the multi storey at the Leisure Centre less than 10min walk away or the Babraham Park & Ride which stops on Hills Road, very close to Purbeck Rd.
CANCELLATIONS: 72h prior to class for a move to a future date and 7 days for a full refund
