Step into the festive spirit and learn to make your own mince pies and mulled wine. In this cosy class, you’ll roll up your sleeves to create your own buttery shortcrust pastry, prepare a rich, spiced mincemeat filling, and assemble a batch of traditional mince pies to bake to golden perfection.
While your pies are in the oven, you’ll brew a warming glass of mulled wine (or spiced apple juice) – the perfect companion to your freshly baked treats.
Baking festive treats is a wonderful way to spend quality time with friends or family during the holiday season by slowing down and cherishing the traditional flavours of Christmas. You’ll leave with your own beautiful batch of warm pies, perfect for gifting or savouring at home, and the confidence to elevate your festive repertoire with homemade mince pies year after year; a delicious tradition to make your own!
