Experience the sweeter side of the Hunter in our seasonal baking experience at The Yellow Door Kitchen — a hands-on baking class inspired by the region’s incredible local produce, artisan makers and seasonal flavours.
Designed for food lovers, visitors and passionate home bakers, this immersive class celebrates the changing seasons through beautiful European-inspired baking using ingredients sourced from the Newcastle and Hunter region.
In this class, guests will create the Hunter’s take on the viral Italian Maritozzi cream buns — learning how to make soft enriched pastry buns from scratch before filling and finishing them with seasonal creams and flavours inspired by local produce. Depending on the season, flavours may include pistachio and strawberry, mulberry and lavender crème, citrus curd, roasted stone fruit, local honey or other rotating seasonal creations.
Guests will also make a rustic seasonal fougasse, learning bread shaping and dough techniques while working with premium Hunter Valley olive oil, local cheeses, fresh herbs and seasonal ingredients that showcase the region’s exceptional producers.
Throughout the experience, guests will learn practical baking skills, pastry and dough techniques, flavour pairing ideas and finishing methods while enjoying a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere with a glass of Hunter wine.
Perfect for couples, visitors to the Hunter region, groups of friends or anyone wanting an authentic local food experience, this class is designed to celebrate the people, produce and flavours that make the Hunter region so special.

female Women-owned

The passion for baking and cooking started in childhood for Janet Newton during the long Christmas holidays she spent baking with a Czechoslovakian family friend, Irene. During this time, the family was provided with an endless supply of traditional tarts, slices, biscuits, and cakes.
The wonderful love of sharing food with family and friends was born out of these one-on-one cooking lessons and is the inspiration behind the opening of The Yellow Door Kitchen.
Janet trained as a Pastry Chef at the famous Le Cordon Bleu cooking school and has many years of experience working in restaurants and patisseries. Her ability to combine flavors and her passion for baking is infectious and will ensure students are transported into a wonderful, creative world of cooking during her classes.
