Discover the secrets of bread baking and demystify the world of baking with yeast in this fun and informative self-paced online baking course!
This is a great value for money course! Using Anneka’s tips and tricks will really help improve your bread making and confidence and show you how easy it is to make a range of delicious breads. The [video] session was great for seeing the techniques in action, and the follow up homework was a pleasure to do (and eat!) ... Overall this was an excellent course and all the resources were so useful, I know I will use them again and again.

I had tried making bread and had failures. This course gave me the extra tips and working along in real time helped to see exactly where I should be at rather than relying on a picture ... I learnt a lot and didn't need to leave home!

[This] course offered a whole new level of real learning. I loved the explanations of why things are done, along with the opportunity to ask questions. I've followed YouTube videos, but they don't help with adjusting or tailoring recipes for things like the availability of different ingredients or equipment ... [This course] can take your bread game to the next level, turning 'Okay' loaves into 'Is there any more?' loaves!
