Cooking & Baking Classes in Reading

If your child likes getting their hands into a bowl of dough, there are two proper options within a drive of Reading. Out at Newbury, Honesty Cookery School runs hands-on courses for kids aged 10 and up, cooking alongside an adult, and it also does adult-only feast classes from £25. In Cholsey, Mrs Bun the Baker gets kids from age 1 right up to 18 measuring, mixing and baking a full savoury and sweet menu from scratch, using real ingredients and proper kitchen kit, and they take their bakes home. For toddlers and younger children, Mrs Bun the Baker is the one to book, and it's set up for birthday parties and school visits too, so it's handy if you're planning something bigger. If your child's older, Honesty Cookery School's 10+ courses make more sense, and its £25 feast classes are worth keeping for a grown-up treat. Both need booking ahead rather than turning up on the day.
