Learn key decorative cake skills at Bishop Auckland College’s ‘have a go’ workshops
Bishop Auckland College is delighted to be offering
‘have a go’ workshops at this year’s Food Festival.
Join our chef lecturer Elizabeth MacIntyre, who will be leading sessions at Bishop Auckland Town Hall on both days.
If you would like to turn your hand to baking, we have three different workshops showing you how to impress your friends and family as you create cakes that look like flowers, allotments and pigs in mud!
Limited numbers are available so please book in advance via the links below.
