An ongoing baking course inspired by the magical world. From crafting pointy hats to magical monster bakes, we'll cook tasty recipes that would impress any witch or wizard. We will start class with a couple of minutes of introductions, making sure that everyone knows each other's names. We will then check that we have the correct ingredients and equipment, and have clean hands and a clean work surface. We will go through the recipe step by step, so that all learners can follow along. Ingredients will need to be measured before class, to leave learners enough time for each step. By the end of class, learners will know how to follow and complete the recipe. Please be aware, recipes may not always be completed in the 60 minute live class session. Sometimes the food will need additional heating or cooling time, or decoration steps will need to be finished. Ingredient and kitchen equipment lists will be posted in the classroom around a week before each class. I will email learners who sign-up after this time as they will not be able to see the prior classroom posts, please allow 24 hours after signing-up for the ingredient and kitchen equipment email to reach you.

Other Details
Parental Guidance
When you enrol in this class, you accept full responsibility for your learner's safety. It is essential that a responsible adult is in the same room as the learner (Outschool policy is that adults must remain off camera) and ready to step in to help if necessary.
Although we will discuss using equipment safely in class, please ensure your learner is familiar with your own kitchen equipment (how to turn it on, turn it off, increase or decrease the temperature, or speed up or slow mixing). Learners will be using knives to chop, mixers to stir or whisk, the hob to melt or cook ingredients, as well as the oven (adult supervision will be needed when using hot equipment).
Please ensure your learner has short sleeves, or close fitting long sleeves that will not get caught on equipment, long hair tied back and is wearing an apron or clothes that can be washed easily.
Please ensure you check all your ingredients for possible allergens.
Supply List
Ingredient and kitchen equipment lists will be posted in the classroom around a week before each class. I will email learners who sign-up after this time as they will not be able to see the prior classroom posts, please allow 24 hours after signing-up for the ingredient and kitchen equipment email to reach you. A recipe sheet will be shared the day before class. You may print this if you wish, or just follow along with the steps in class. We will be cooking a variety of recipes and they will need a range of kitchen equipment, frequently used items include - oven, hob, fridge, freezer, hand or stand mixer, baking tins and trays, saucepans, glass or metal bowl, mixing bowls, measuring jugs, weighing scales or measuring cups, spoons, knives, piping bags, piping nozzles, scissors and baking parchment.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
