Holiday Treat Sampler: Baking Class

An important lesson that we learned as children was that holidays shouldn't be about spending loads of money on gifts. Special occasions were marked primarily with time spent together, engaging in family traditions from baking Panettone for family friends to heading up to the mountains in search of the perfect Charlie Brown Christmas tree.

We are delighted to share our secrets and treasured family recipes with you in this four-hour class. We'll enjoy some savory snacks together before highlighting some of America's most delicious Holiday baking traditions, discuss different techniques (rolled cookies, drop cookies, bars, confections) and lead you through making a variety of sweets on your own.

At the end, you'll head home with a full sampler to share with your family or give as a gift.

Please bring your own apron, rolling pin, knife, and a decorative tin so that you may transport your goodies home in style at the end of class!
