This month we’re celebrating the launch of Disney’s The Nutcracker and the Four Realms with a special one-off class where you can build and decorate our limited edition cake for Christmas.

This mixed spice sponge cake is layered with cinnamon and orange cream cheese frosting, poached raspberry confit and fresh raspberries, topped with ginger buttercream and rosemary spruce trees and your very own Nutcracker ornament to hang on the tree.

Join us for an evening in the beautiful Grounds’ Bakery as our pastry team lead a masterclass on decorating and finishing a seasonally inspired cake.

Introducing a new theme and cake type each month, our experts will be sharing their top tips and knowledge to help you prepare a beautiful dessert for you to share with your guests.

Each class will offer a variety of themed finishing touches and florals to create your own unique cake.

Masters in creating beautifully presented pastries fresh from The Grounds’ Bakery and Patisserie, our dedicated pastry team will work through a step-by-step demonstration. Sharing tips in preparing and layering a 4-layer cake, using different icing finishes and piping techniques, and adding the perfect (and delicious) decorative touches to finish.
