BREADMAKING with DEDE LISS

11 September at 6:30 pm

Free

Keen to make your own delicious bread at home? Over the next two months we’ll be running two courses at The George Bakery designed to give you the perfect start to your breadmaking journey. There’ll also be a free Taster Session at The George Bakery on Wednesday 11 September at 6.30pm.

At the Taster Session you’ll be able to:

  • meet the course tutor Dede Liss;
  • learn about the courses and choose the one that suits you best;
  • sample the breads you’ll be making and taking home with you;
  • meet and share experiences with other would-be breadmakers.

Space at the Taster Session is limited so please let us know if you plan to attend using the RSVP form below. Admission is free, but we would appreciate a donation towards ingredients costs and overheads.

Dede’s breadmaking courses are spread over two days so as to cover the whole breadmaking process from start to finish. Numbers are limited so you can receive individual attention, and free follow-up advice and support is available after the course if you need it.
