REVIEWS


Jackie Mates • May 2021

Much better than expected. No elements were pre-made so we learnt how to do every step using stuff we prob already have at home. The teacher was friendly and welcoming and the venue I felt was the perfect size and setting. They were generous with ingredients for those wanting to try different things. Would recommend.
