  • 4/5 from Elli Bortolotti, attended May 2022: Had a really enjoyable time, learned about fondant which I've never used before. Thank you.
  • 1/5 from Max Walkerden, attended May 2022: My son did not get to attend this class as he became very ill with suspected glandular fever and tonsillitis. I attempted to make contact with the organizer/teacher the night before when he first presented with sudden onset symptoms without success as the email was not manned. I have since been informed that he is not able to reschedule his class so I have wasted almost $250 through no fault of mine. While I understand that the place could not be filled at short notice, I am disappointed that there is no credit available for a future course. I have a medical certificate to show that his illness is genuine and my son is unable to attend school for this whole week. Not attending the class on Saturday was the responsible thing to do for the safety of all participants. I hope that this policy can be reviewed, particularly given the current health crisis.
  • 5/5 from Gillian Langley, attended Feb 2022: I thoroughly enjoyed this class. It was exactly what I was looking for. Amber was a great teacher. Relaxed but very knowledgeable and helpful. What a wonderful way to spend a rainy Saturday! Altogether a great course and I’m thrilled with the cake I produced.
