Baking Basics is a self-paced online course where you will learn the basics of baking – in your own time, at your own pace.

 

I totally enjoyed this value for money course which has renewed my love of baking. The recipes were fantastic and I will definitely be baking more from now on, utilising my newly acquired skills. This was a perfect course for me. Just Do It. You won’t look back.

Learn to bake at home – in your own time!

Baking Basics is a fun and engaging self-paced online course where you will learn the basics of baking – in your own time, at your own pace – all from your own home kitchen!

Guided by Anneka Manning and her more than 30 years of baking experience, this course will cover ingredients, equipment and two simple mixing methods, and is packed full of hints, tips and tricks to make baking easy, more successful and therefore, much more fun!

This course will reconnect you with baking from scratch and emphasise the importance of using our hands to create something not only delicious but ready to share with someone in need of a little connection and care. Through this course, you will learn how baking can be a wonderful grounding and calming exercise that can help to reduce anxiety and stress, while providing endless enjoyment.

Designed to be completed in 14 days (but you can take as long as you like), this is the perfect online course for anyone looking for a structured way to learn how to bake.

Please note: Baking Basics is a condensed version of our Baking Foundations online course so we do not recommend it to those who have already completed Baking Foundations.

How does a self-paced course work?

This online course is completely self-guided. Upon enrolment, you will gain access to the course content which you can work through at your own pace. You can log on whenever it is convenient for you and complete the modules one day at a time. 

You can take 14 days or more to complete the course – it's up to you how quickly you want to work through the content. You will have lifetime access to all the recipes, videos and printable information sheets so you can dip in and out of it whenever it suits you.

There is the option to connect with other bakers via Facebook through BakeClub's exclusive The Kitchen Table membership group and via Instagram using #bakeschoolbasics. This way you can share your experience and support each other as your confidence and skills grow.

So, is Baking Basics for me?
  • Would you love to bake from scratch and not rely on store-bought baked goods?
  • Would you like to partake in a regular baking exercise that will help you practise mindfulness?
  • Have you perhaps never considered yourself to be a particularly good baker but would like to give it another go and see if baking is for you?
  • Are you keen to learn something new?
  • Are you looking for a valuable and fun activity to do with children (while teaching them life-long skills)?
  • Would you like to be guided and inspired by Anneka's 30+ years of baking experience in your own kitchen?

If any of these sound like you, then Baking Basics is the course for you!
