If you’re having some friends over during the festive period why not step up your snacks and treats with our easy festive canapes course? Over this session you’ll learn how to make fancy nibbles like blinis, crackers and smoked mackerel pate which will make sure you’re definitely the host with the most.

At the end of the course you’ll take home what you’ve made as well as a recipe card so you can do it all over again for the best party of the season.

What will I learn?

Our tutor will guide you through the processes of preparing these delicious nibbles, giving you the confidence and skills needed to make them again at home. You will also learn some useful tips and tricks on how to present your dishes and about the nutritional and cost benefits of home cooking.
