New batches! The Purple Foodie Baking Workshops (Jan 24-27), Mumbai

January 16, 2013

You guys are just the very best, aren’t you? I thought I’d take a weekend of classes during my holiday in Bombay, but the previous batches were sold out in a few hours with people travelling to Bombay from all over the country! Thank you so much for being so enthusiastic about the classes.

Because there are still so many of you who weren’t able to catch seats for the workshops, I am now pleased to announce 6 more classes spread over 3 days.

WHAT’S BAKING?
I will be demonstrating the following:

Tea Time Treats (that could easily pass off as breakfast treats in my books)

  1. Strawberry and roasted almond cake
  2. Cinnamon sugar pull apart bread
  3. Fig and hazelnut bars
  4. Caramel apple upside down cake
  5. Intensely chocolatey brownies

Chocoholics Anon.

  1. Triple chocolate cookies
  2. Chocolate chip pound cake
  3. Banana nutella cupcakes
  4. Chocolate mud cake (a Purple Foodie bestseller from the catering days!)
  5. Parisian hot chocolate
[New Class] French Tarts
  1. Pastry dough – pate sable
  2. Pastry dough – pate sucree
  3. Chocolate passionfruit tart
  4. Rustic fig and frangipane tart
  5. Strawberry and pastry cream tart
