SPONGE CAKES AND SPA TREATMENTS

This package has the feel-good factor in abundance.  Half the time you are learning to make (and taste!) gorgeous cup cakes, and the other half you are being pampered in the spa – so what’s not to like?!

You are welcomed at 9.30am with tea, coffee and orange juice, before moving in to the kitchen for a session with our pastry chef to learn the secrets of creating delightfully moist sponge, and three different flavours of cup cake.  When the sponges are baking you’ll discover how to pipe swirls, make incredible frosting and whip up the perfect fondant icing. You’ll also make flowers, experiment with sugar paste, use cutters to make shapes, and create peaks of delicious toppings with spatulas.  On the way you’ll get familiar with which tools and ingredients to use, and where best to source them.

After you’ve iced your cup cakes there will be a break for sandwiches and refreshments, with photographs of you and your culinary achievements (shots will be forwarded to you afterwards).

This is followed by a couple of hours in the spa enjoying a choice of back, neck and shoulder massage, a head massage, or a Leighton Denny Custom Manicure.  When not in the treatment room you can relax in the heated pool, sauna or Jacuzzi.

Finally tea and cupcakes are served before you leave with a Darphin goody bag and prettily packaged collection of your remaining cupcakes.
