Chelsea Flower Show Special

This two day immersive Afternoon Tea Experience will teach you everything you need to know to prepare, finish and present an exquisite five star afternoon tea experience for you and three guests to enjoy at The Tea House, Chelsea. The bakes will be inspired by the Chelsea Flower Show, so expect some floral infused treats and delights that will really elevate your afternoon tea. 

This is an exclusive one-off experience for a class of four students only.

On day one, our expert Baker will introduce you to the art of planning an afternoon tea, before moving onto making and preparing the dough for your sandwiches, pastry and sponges. You will also make and prepare jams, as well as the fillings for your savoury selections.

You’ll explore loose leaf teas, how to choose teas that complement your menu and how to make sure they are perfectly brewed.

On day two, you’ll finish off the savoury products, cakes and pastries, as well as freshly baking your own flavour of scones.

In preparation of welcoming your guests to The Tea House, you will learn to set the table and present an impeccable service of afternoon tea including introducing your guests to the menu, serving an amuse bouche and pouring the teas.

After all that hard work, you will then get to sit with your guests to enjoy the savoury and sweet rewards of your hard work!

By the end of the two days, our Bakers will have mastered the art of crafting and serving a premium traditional afternoon tea experience, which focuses on the quality and finish of each bake.

This workshop is suitable for all levels of experience, but we would recommend some prior baking experience to truly get the most out of this workshop. This workshop runs for two days and includes lunch.
