Manchester – All you need is love (and cake) 8 February

January 16, 2012 4:37 pm in Manchester, New events by Gwyneth Brock

Our first Manchester Clandestine Cake Club of 2012

Theme

ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE (AND CAKE)

Calling all cake bakers and cake lovers, what cake really gets your heart racing? Or perhaps you’ve baked a cake to win someone’s heart? What would you bake for Valentine’s Day?

Date

Wednesday 8th  February  7- 9pm

VENUE

We’re going to be meeting at a new location, a cookery school near Altrincham, for a cake-baking and cake-decorating demonstration. A North West-based pastry chef is going to show us how to bake a delicious chocolate cake and then show us how to make it look absolutely stunning. Following which we’ll try each others cakes over a cuppa as normal.

To cover the costs of the event, we’re charging £10 a head, which will include the cake demonstration and free tea and coffee. And remember there is always as much cake as you can eat! Just a reminder that our events are normally free and this is just a one-off which will hopefully inspire us all to greater things for future cake club meetings.

Usual rules apply:

One baker can bring one guest. The £10 charge applies to each baker and guest and will need to be paid up front to confirm your place. I’ll email back with details of how to pay.

Book a place

  • Full name
  • Indicate if you need a place for a guest ( one guest only) Please add their name

Points to remember. Each cake must be large enough to slice into around 8 – 12 good slices.  Sorry, but No cupcakes, Muffins, Brownies, Cookies, Pies or Tarts.

Home-bakers and professional bakers can join in. It’s not a competition, no judging, just a lot of fun. And you get to take cake home.
