Kaye was a delightful and thorough teacher. This was a perfect class for our volunteers to experience together and we enjoyed the samples of delicious treats you can make using Kayes methods as well as the incredible lunch. I will definately be looking for more workshops to attend with Kaye. Thank you Kaye!

Buyer beware: you might just come away with a new hobby and burning desire to get a pressure canner. This was a fantastic, hands on workshop to start learning the basics of water bathing and pressure canning. Kaye, the teacher, was enthusiastic and warm with plenty of knowledge from her experience preserving to share. Each participant was able to complete each part of the process, enabling us to grow confident in handling the equipment. She also provided us with wonderful resource to start our own journey - including recipes, cook book and equipment recommendations, with a set of jars to boot! There was a delicious spread of home preserved food including kale and sweet potato chips, Mexican dehydrated seed crackers and dip with a delicious side of pears. Lunch was also assembled in minutes, a Thai green chicken curry with a vegan bean mix, demonstrating the versatility of canned produce, including meat. I highly recommend attending this class, if you have even an inclining of interest or a home garden with too many tomatoes! I will be checking out the other workshops available and putting them in my calendar.

I found our teacher was extremly helpful it was hands on to make our bread By you making the bread yourself it sticks in your mind, She supplied hot carrot soup served with butter & little snacks on the 4 hour cooking cass I felt very relaxed with the group They do other classes which can be very
Interesting Which I will look into in the near future

I was so excited to get a place for the class and thoroughly enjoyed it!
I didn't know much about dehydration and was keen to learn. It's such a simple process and the food preparation is very therapeutic. I had sooooo many questions and Kaye was eager to share her knowledge and give extra tips and ideas along the way.
I've already added the veggie samples Kaye gave me to bolognaise sauce and we enjoyed the deeper flavour it infused.
If you love cooking and food preparation, you'll love this class.
Now I'm looking forward to putting into practice what I've learned and having extra flavour to add to cooking and healthy snacks on hand.

I had a fantastic time at Kayes vegan- gluten free dough dough making class! Kaye created such a warm and welcoming environment, and her passion for baking really shines through. We learn r all about different types of sourdough breads and starters. Not to mention, there was so much delicious food to enjoy throughout the class! Highly recommend.

Kay was fabulous. Reassuring that I could actually keep my starter alive. step by step through the more complicated parts and prev prepared stages to demo. And a hopefully foolhardy starter to take home with me.

My son gifted me with my gift card and I'm so grateful as I found this so helpful. Kaye was delightful and gave such detailed instructions on how to make gluten free bread and a sourdough starter. We were provided with refreshments and a hearty soup where we sampled the delicious bread. To top it off, we took home our own starter. A fabulous experience.

This class was absolutely amazing! The teacher is very knowledgeable and friendly. We all had a go at prepping and canning meat and fruit. I feel a lot more comfortable using pressure canner after attending this class.

Irene Christie • Sep 2024



Our class with Kaye on steam pressure and water bath canning was a fantastic learning experience. Kayes kitchen was inviting, her food and hospitality were delightful and above all, she knows her stuff. We came away with knowledge and confidence to be fully independent in both skills.
I felt her course was good value for money and would recommend highly.

Greg Frendo • Sep 2024



Kaye's class in canning was very informative and gave my partner and I a sense of ease to undertake canning.
Kaye has a very relaxed way of imparting her knowledge and has a very relaxing work space.
The class was very good value for money and I will be doing more courses with Kaye.
Kaye runs a very informative class.

Greg Frendo • Aug 2024



Kate was amazing, very knowledgeable and made the experience very relaxing.
We look forward to doing other courses with Kaye

Nicki Thomson • Aug 2024



I recently completed food preservation course, and it was fantastic!
Kaye's passion and expertise in food preparation, preservation and storage was truly inspiring.
She thoroughly explained each step of the process and provided excellent book and product recommendations.
A highlight was the delicious lunch and snacks lovingly prepared by Kaye, which showcased the versatility in food and cooking in general.
Our discussions about how food brings family and community together made the experience even more special.
I now plan to have a pantry full of beautifully canned goods, all thanks to the skills I learned.
If you're considering learning the art of canning, I would highly recommend this course.
It was a rewarding and enjoyable experience from start to finish!

Really enjoyed the class, as a complete novice to any kind of bread baking I found Kaye's instruction very clear. The hands on opportunities throughout the class were very beneficial also. Kaye was a lovely person who went out of her way to create a lovely informative experience. I plan to make my first Artisan gluten free loaf in next few days! Highly recommend.

Alexis Nguyen • Jun 2024



Once again Kate delivers. Well researched and practiced recipes. Lots of great tips. And amazing gluten free and vegan sourdoughs. Yes doughs. 3 to choose from. All yummy. A take home starter and some super fine ground grains to repeat at home.

Crissie Maloney • Jun 2024



Lovely social day as well as learning how to make the yummiest bread. Teacher was so knowledgeable and spent so much time giving us good hints and answering our questions, in a truly beautiful and cosy home. Great value for the cost and I'll be making my own bread from n ow on and not getting nasty tummy upsets. Thank you for a wonderful day.

Tracey Spiegelenburg • Jun 2024

Kaye was very knowledgeable, friendly and hospitable. Gave me the confidence to go away and apply what I learnt on the day.

Alan Leonard • Apr 2024



Kaye’s gluten free sourdough class was amazing. From the moment I entered her home I felt welcome and relaxed in the wholesome setting. The tutorials are really easy to follow and I enjoyed getting involved. The best part was eating the bread with a nourishing bowl of soup Kaye had prepared for us! My starter has been going well at home and my first bake came out great thanks to Kaye’s guidance. Highly recommend everyone try this class even if you don’t eat gluten free usually, it’s great to use different grains for bread making.

I made my first GF vegan loaf of bread after the class and wow I love my new skills. Class was fun. Take lots of notes and photos as I relied on these to make it at home. Can buy most of the ingredients at KFL in Springvale. Protein powder from Chemist warehouse Mentone. Can get Kosha salt from Benedikt imports Cheltenham. Teacher was lovely too thank you for such a lovely learning experience. Photo of my sourdough I made at home. Still need to have a go at artisan loaf. Just finished my lunch of home made tomato soup with my own baked vegan GF bread- delicious
