Description
A fun, interesting and relaxing two hour workshop for anyone wanting to learn the art of making Marzipan Fruits. I will demonstrate and then guide you step by step to making your own oranges, lemons and limes. You will learn about the use of marzipan, colouring techniques, shaping and finishing touches, along with Ideas of how to store, display or give Marzipan Fruits as a gift. You will learn the skills to make approximately 30 pieces to take away (depending on how much marzipan you eat whilst making them!). Suitable for all abilities. No previous experience needed. You don't need to be artistic. Just bring your enthusiasm. The methods you will learn are not complicated and I will help you get the best results, which will be both satisfying, and cheaper than buying them in the shops! Once you have made your Marzipan Fruits you can eat them, take them home or, as marzipan keeps really well, keep them to give as a gift at a later date. Refreshments are available to purchase from the bar at Slepe Hall. This workshop runs on a Friday evening 7pm- 9pm. Please see other listing for daytime workshop dates. Please note I need a minimum of 6 people for the workshop to go ahead. I will let you know two weeks before your course if it is unlikely to go ahead. Please contact me if you would like to book a workshop for your group on a different date or location. ALLERGY WARNING: Marzipan is made from Almonds (NUTS).
