WOW. Where to begin -- this entire experience was incredible. The building itself is stunning - over 400 years old! - and when we walked in we were welcomed by our host, Fulden, and a beautiful tea setup with different prep stations. We were a group of 4 in this experience, and our host taught us tips and tricks to make our Homemade Jam, Homemade Clotted Cream, Possets, Victorian Sponges, Chocolate cake, and Scones (4 unique and tasty varieties!). Someone in our group had a gluten free request so we were able to try our hand at two different GF sponges and two types of GF scones. After all of our bakes were completed, we sat all together and had a lovely sit-down tea where we got to enjoy the fruits of our labor (and some lovely Turkish spreads as well!) However, one of the highlights for me was truly our host, Fulden. Her knowledge for baking, creativity in developing her own baking style (hello new pasta shape!) , and her passion for creating community through food is nothing short of inspirational. Do not miss this opportunity to learn, have fun, meet amazing people, and enjoy some of the best bakes in the UK! Thank you Fulden for all that you do!

From the moment we got to the class we were warmly greeted and prepared for an afternoon experience. The friendliness of Fulden set the stage for an afternoon of learning, laughing and preparing a special tea. Small friendly group that engaged in sharing the cooking, asking questions, and preparing cakes, scones and clotted cream. We had fun and following. We were no longer strangers by the time we left. The food was delicious even though I made it myself!! Lots of great tips and techniques to use again and again. Very interactive time with great memories forever. That is why we went and were not disappointed. Great afternoon out I cannot wait to take another class.

Fulden is an amazing baker- she knows the science of baking and will teach you some great tips and tricks from how to easily make your own clotted cream to which flour is yields the softest, lightest, fluffiest scones ever!!! We got to make Eve you could imagine for a full proper Afternoon tea- it was truly a delicious meal!!! We shared bubbly and put on fancy hats. The table was set with sweet dishes. Honestly, I had the best time making and eating it all!! I can’t wait to try making the scones and Victoria sponge cake! I would like to be able to go back and try her pizza class!!! Thank you Fulden! You are beautiful inside and out! You have a great sense of how things should be! Anyone who attends her cooking and baking experiences is truly in very good hands!!!!

Fantastic experience, exceeding all expectations. The venue is really quaint, but very functional. Fulden is a super teacher … I learnt such a lot and have been inspired to replicate her bakes. Sampling the afternoon tea that we baked … mmm scrumptious! And Fulden added a few of her own delicious treats too. You will not be disappointed with this class. I will certainly be back to try out one of her other classes.

Pace of the afternoon was just right and the involvement in the process made it the more interesting, was amazed that my husband thoroughly enjoyed it. Learnt some quick tips which I will definitely be using and also Graham has rekindled his enthusiasm to use the kitchen more.

I enjoyed my Afternoon Tea & Baking Class. I found the experience therapeutic and felt like I was visiting an old friend. Fulden, the head Baker was welcoming and hospitable. I learnt a lot from her and am looking forward to returning to her kitchen to learn more tricks of the trade!

We had a great time in this afternoon tea class. Fulden's home is beautiful and welcoming. She's a patient, organized, fun and skillful teacher. The food we made turned out beautiful and I'm delighted she shared her recipes with us so we can make the jam, cake and scones again at home. Fulden ended the evening by hosting an afternoon tea where we could enjoy what we made. It was made all the more fun by the fascinators she provided for the experience. We'd highly recommend this class.

I was looking for a special experience to do with my best friend and the afternoon tea experience was SO PERFECT. I am not sure I will be able to find the words to do it justice! Fulden welcomes you into her home and within minutes you feel as though you are with an old friend. We learnt to make jam, victoria sponge and various different scones. Despite the fact that we were both novices she made the learning fun. The whole time I was there I felt like I was absorbing Fulden's passion for food, family and travel. If you have seen the Netflix show 'Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat' then you will know exactly what I mean! To wrap up the experience we finished with a really cute tea party where we enjoyed the amazing food we had cooked. There is a famous quote that says 'People won't remember what you said or did, they will remember how you made them feel'. Well... I do remember what Fulden said....and she sent me the recipes but mostly I couldn't agree more that what sets this experience apart is how she makes you feel. By the time we were leaving, we were sad to say goodbye! This is the best experience day I have ever done!

My mother and I had the most wonderful afternoon recently with Fulden, who is a delight. And such a talent! We've had scones all over the UK and all over the world, and the ones she taught us to make were hands down the best. The first bite was a revelation. And her homemade jams... I can't wait for a cookbook! Not to mention, the setting in her lovely kitchen was charming, Instagram-worthy. She was such a pleasure to talk to, so easy and warm. And we really can't wait to go back, next time with friends!

SJNMom

What a wonderful experience my adult daughter and I had at Fulden's. She is an amazing hostess and baker and her home is spacious, warmly and lovely decorated and her scones - moist and delicious. Oh, and her homemade jams- wonderful - not your store bought jams! We had such a great time that we told all our friends (and of course showed our pictures) and now we have a number of friends who are excited at the possibility of coming back with us for a ladies retreat. Can't wait! It will be awesome!!
