    I took my 5 year old to the child/parent class and it was a delight. My daughter loved it and Sally makes a mean cup of coffee. We had a blast, it boosted my daughter's confidence in the kitchen and our freezer is full of yummy baked goods!

    Brilliant experience! Taking a class with Sally will not disappoint! It was really well organised, from joining instructons, the bakery/studio set up, the thoughtful welcome to little bakers. My 4y old and I trust Cupcake Gemma and “Cupcake” Sally for baking advice on YT, and my daughter ran to Sally like a dear friend :). Her trusty assistant Hector was fabulous- we all need a Hector in our life! I’m signing up for a grown ups only class next - honestly, this is the easiest 5 star review I’ve ever left x

    Brilliant day learning how to make cupcakes, brownies, cookies and buttercream on Sallys Baking 101 Class. As the total beginner and the only bloke baking with 7 ladies could have been intimidating but everyone was great and Sally is a fantastic baker and teacher. She is so enthusiastic and knowledgeable and her sunny personality made the day a really fun experience. I learnt lots of baking tips and have a better understanding of the right consistency and colour required from beating batter and buttercream for successful bakes and decorating. It was also very successful as everything I took home was devoured the following day by family and friends.

    Sally is such a great teacher, so much energy and enthusiasm, but also meticulous and insightful. I’ve struggled to decorate cakes for a long time and Sally’s class helped me overcome a lot of my technical fears and make something beautiful!
