Thank you so much to today’s fun and fabulous group that drove through snow and came from far and wide (and close) for my latest cheese class.
Seeing so many of you back from other classes makes my heart so happy and thanks to the ladies from those, for encouraging me to create this class.
As always I LOVE meeting new faces and seeing old customers and spending an afternoon making delicious food together🥰

BIG thanks to the Wild Walnut for working with me and for making your cafe so warm and inviting.

I have been working on this new class for a while for some of my lovely customers and have finally finished recipe testing (a very tasty job) and this new class will be lots of fun.

I have been in the food industry for 30 years and before being a chocolate maker I was a soft cheese maker and had a wedding catering business, in fact it was many thousands of jars of my Lebna cheese that helped get us to NZ a decade ago.

This class is a fun way to share some of the catering and creative ways I have learnt to use cheese over the last 3 decades,

It will be $75 for 1.5 hours, we will make 2 soft cheese, taste at least 4 cheeses plus cover creative ways to use cheese and make easy sides. You will all get to roll your own cheese balls and of course taste everything as we go and take home recipe cards and a $35 cheese box.

This class is already almost booked but I have space for a few more cheese lovers (and I can run another class if I have lots of interest).
Its cold outside and a perfect time to get creative with cheese.

Message me if you would like to join us on:
JUNE 7TH
2pm - 3.30pm in Lawrence, Otago, New Zealand
$75 pp

It will be a very delicious day.

A very big thanks to Sundays delightful group for my Chocolate master class.
It was a full class and I loved seeing some of you back from previous lessons to learn more about Chocolate, along with some wonderful new faces.
It was a great afternoon and you all have some serious chocolate making talent!
Every one of your chocolate creations was totally unique and looked fabulous 😁
Thank you all for making the trip to Lawrence and for helping the world have more chocolate makers!
