I am so proud to say our great friend Marian Malone from Special Occasion Cakes is one of our longest invited tutors to Cloughan Farm.
Marians passion and the attention to detail she gives each student is incredible. In this hands on workshop you will enjoy decorating your very own cake in the Christmas theme. All ingredients and equipment are included.I am also delighted to say Marian will also be demonstrating how to ganache a cake and decorate it using her recipe for a beautiful velvety buttercream
What You Will Learn!!
Your hands on workshop with Marian will begin with helpful tips how to choose a theme when decorating your cake that will best suit your ability and style. You’ll also be guided through the correct environment and equipment you will need to enjoy cake decorating at home. Marian will demonstrate the different techniques of preparation and ganaching cakes.
Once the important basics are covered its time for you to get going. You will be guided step by step with Marians and her many years of experience and sharp eye to detail.
By the end of the day you will be so proud of yourself as you head home with your festively iced cake in hand and hopefully have honed in and enhanced your own sugarcraft skills in our wonderful hands on workshop. Not only is this a fantastic opportunity to begin or devolve your interest in the world of sugarcraft, its also a wonderful opportunity to pick up all the tips and notes from Marian from her many years of experience.
What Your Day Will Also Include!
When you arrive in the morning at Cloughan Farm you will be welcomed with our freshly baked scones served with our homemade kitchen garden preserves and a cup of tea/coffee.
While you are in the kitchen with Marian we’ll be busy in our kitchen preparing and cooking a seasonal festive lunch and dessert using much of our home grown vegetables & Cloughan Farm reared meat . The workshop will break for lunch which you will enjoy in our dining room. During this time you will also have an opportunity to visit our kitchen garden, greenhouse and polytunnel.
Just as you put the final touches to you cake at the end of the evening, we’ll have the kettle on for a cuppa and cake before you head home.
