Sourdough Bread 101

Sourdough Bread 101 

Saturday, March 29, 2025 | 10:00AM - 4:00PM (Lunch Includes)

$249.00 Per Station (Suitable for Dynamic Duos- see below for more details)

During this FULL DAY Sourdough 101 Masterclass with Angela McEllin you’ll start the morning learning how to make beautiful decorative designs and scoring on a batch of dough that’s been prepared for you. While that loaf bakes, you’ll start your own batch of sourdough to bring home...and get to go through all the stretching and folding throughout the day! We’ll work our way through several recipes (all of which you’ll bring home with you) including Sourdough Herb Crackers, Sourdough Ciabatta and Sourdough Fougasse! Plus, you’ll receive several recipes for using up your discard!

While we’re waiting for all our recipes to rise, you'll begin your starter or 'Mother' and learn the importance of feeding and watering to nurture your starter. You'll also make a ‘stiff starter’ using our house starter to take home with you—perfect for making those gorgeous artisan loaves.

This class is suitable for the following Dynamic Duo types:

YES: Parent/Grandparent & Child

YES: Couples (live in the same household)

YES: Friends (you will share all equipment/ingredients for 1 recipe/batch…we let you rock, paper, scissors if the recipe doesn’t divide equally.)

*What is a Dynamic Duo? It’s basically two buddies sharing the same workstation at no extra charge. You share all equipment and ingredients for a single batch of whatever we’re making that day. (Don’t worry, we won’t stick you with some random stranger- if you want to fly solo, you’ll have the station (and all the yummy food) all to yourself!)

We provide all ingredients, supplies, and tools required for use during each class. Best of all you get to take home whatever tasty treats you make - we provide all boxes/packaging.

Please wear comfortable shoes (stools will be provided) and have long hair tied back. For the comfort of all our students and staff, we ask that you refrain from wearing strong perfume or cologne. You may wish to bring a cardigan or sweater as the kitchen is kept at 68F.

$169.00 Per Station (Suitable for Dynamic Duos - please see below for details)

Based on the oh-so-politically-incorrectly named Boston cocktail the Irish Car Bomb which contains the trinity of Irish booze- a rich Guinness Chocolate Cupcake topped with a Bailey’s Irish Cream Buttercream and filled and drizzled with Jameson Whiskey Ganache- these cupcakes are deserving of their own choir of angels. You’ll have a choice of decorating your cupcakes with Mona Lisa Chocolate Crispies, St. Patrick’s Day themed sprinkles and/or Callebaut Chocolate Vermicelli (the seriously good stuff!)

Not for the faint hearted - you’ll get to sample your instructor’s cupcakes and take yours home to enjoy with an Irish Coffee on St. Patrick’s Day…these cupcakes improve with age, if you can keep your forks off of them long enough.

You are welcome to BYOB for this fun Dynamic Duo friendly class. In this class you will make 24 Cupcakes, so you can each take home a dozen cupcakes…and this particular recipe improves with age, so they’ll be perfect for St. Patrick’s Day (if they last that long!).

If you’re lucky, you might even learn an Irish song or two.

This class is suitable for the following Dynamic Duo* types:

YES: Parent/Grandparent & Child (use your discretion as this is a Boozy Bake)

YES: Couples

We’ll work our way through several recipes (all of which you’ll bring home with you) including Sourdough Herb Crackers, Sourdough Ciabatta and Sourdough Fougasse! Plus, you’ll receive several recipes for using up your discard!

While we’re waiting for all our recipes to rise, you'll begin your starter or 'Mother' and learn the importance of feeding and watering to nurture your starter. You'll also make a ‘stiff starter’ using our house starter to take home with you—perfect for making those gorgeous artisan loaves.

This class is suitable for the following Dynamic Duo types:

YES: Parent/Grandparent & Child

YES: Couples (live in the same household)

YES: Friends (you will share all equipment/ingredients for 1 recipe/batch…we let you rock, paper, scissors if the recipe doesn’t divide equally.)

*What is a Dynamic Duo? It’s basically two buddies sharing the same workstation at no extra charge. You share all equipment and ingredients for a single batch of whatever we’re making that day. (Don’t worry, we won’t stick you with some random stranger- if you want to fly solo, you’ll have the station (and all the yummy food) all to yourself!)

We provide all ingredients, supplies, and tools required for use during each class. Best of all you get to take home whatever tasty treats you make - we provide all boxes/packaging.

Kvæfjordkake (Verdens Beste) AKA World’s Best Cake

Saturday, January 11, 2025 | 10:00AM - 4:00PM

$229.00 Per Station (Suitable for Dynamic Duos- see below for more details)

Okay, so it may not be the prettiest cake, but it certainly lives up to its name! Most Norwegians refer to Kvæfjord cake (Kvæfjordkake) as simply ‘verdens beste’, or the world’s best cake- in 2002 they even voted it as the national cake of Norway.

Comprised of EIGHT* layers of deliciousness- in this class you’ll make:

  • Norwegian Sponge Cake*

  • Topped with Delicious Meringue and sliced Almonds (or not- the choice is yours)

  • Lucious Vanilla Bean Diplomat Créme (Crème Pâtissière folded into light Chantilly Cream)

  • Homemade Raspberry Conserve

  • and filled with fresh fruit!

*Can be made Gluten Free- please specify at checkout if you would prefer this option. 

Kvæfjord is one of the most beautiful parts of Norway, nestled between the stunning Vesterålen islands and the town of Harstad. Kvæfjordkake got its name from the two sisters from Kvæfjord who first made this cake at Café Alliance in Harstad in the 1930s.

Although it may sound like a bit of a boast, the entire FAB team agrees…even Sebastian!

*The original Verdens Beste is a meringue topped Norwegian sponge cake filled with a velvety vanilla cream. However, Angela had some fresh raspberries on hand and had just made a delicious homemade Raspberry Conserve, so… it just needed to be done. Of course, you can do the original five layer version if you prefer, but really, why would you want to?

You have the choice of making one large round cake or the sheet pan version which can easily be divided into two (perfect for Dynamic Duos.)

This class is suitable for the following Dynamic Duo* types:

YES: Parent/Grandparent & Child

YES: Couples (live in the same household)

YES: Friends (you will share all equipment/ingredients for 1 recipe/batch…we let you rock, paper, scissors if the recipe doesn’t divide equally.)

Angela is already coming up with flavor variations…Pumpkin Spice Latte Mousse, Chocolate Salted Caramel Mousse, maybe add some Heath Bar bits into the Pumpkin Butterscotch Mousse Layer…or go boozy with Pumpkin Spice Baileys or Butterscotch Schnapps. The possibilities are endless!

This a perfect Dynamic Duo class to take with your friends or family members!

This class is suitable for the following Dynamic Duo* types:

YES: Parent/Grandparent & Child

YES: Couples

YES: Friends (you will share all equipment/ingredients for 1 recipe/batch…we let you rock, paper, scissors if the recipe doesn’t divide equally.)

*What is a Dynamic Duo? It’s basically two buddies sharing the same workstation at no extra charge. You share all equipment and ingredients for a single batch of whatever we’re making that day. (Don’t worry, we won’t stick you with some random stranger- if you want to fly solo, you’ll have the station (and all the yummy food) all to yourself!) On Chef/Date Nights you will always have enough for two and generally extra to bring home too.

We provide all ingredients, supplies, and tools required for use during each class. Best of all you get to take home whatever tasty treats you make - we provide all boxes/packaging too!

Please wear comfortable shoes (stools will be provided) and have long hair tied back. For the comfort of all our students and staff, we ask that you refrain from wearing strong perfume or cologne. You may wish to bring a cardigan or sweater as the kitchen is kept at 68F.

Come along and make 3 Classic French Baguettes or 6 Demi Baguettes! When properly formed and baked this lean dough creates a crunchy crust with a chewy texture inside that is perfect for your favorite sandwiches, dipping in soup or smothering in butter and jam. Still think it’s not your jam? the versatile baguette is also the quintessential bread for charcuterie boards, bruschetta, french toast, garlic bread, croutons, and more.

You’ll also learn how to make Angela’s FABulous Balsamic Tomato Bruschetta Topping!
