School Holidays Children's Pasta Class: Wednesday 9th July
Children will love this hands-on pasta making class where they will learn to knead dough, roll out pasta sheets and cut them into fettuccine strands. We will also make a few fun shapes by hand which is always a hit with kids. Parents may wait in our lounge room or sit on the deck if weather permits.

School Holidays Children's Biscuit Class: Thursday 10th July
Making our biscuits is lots of fun as we show your children how to twist the dough into a few of our traditional shapes. We start by showing the different ingredients needed, and they will measure them all out and combine them to make the dough. A great way to get kids interested in what they eat, this is a hands-on class that will bring out the little chef in your child.
Parents will love that we use way less sugar than store-bought. This an easy recipe that you can make at home. This class is ideally suited for children aged 8 to 16. However, an adult or older sibling may participate with the child. Or book it as a family activity.
Class includes meatball sandwiches or salad sandwiches for lunch, ice cream for the children. Participating adults get a glass of wine plus a take home bag of biscuits.
