A MUST READ FOR ALL CHOCOHOLICS!
I think we can all come to an agreement that Lindt has some incredible, sweet goodies that make it hard to stay loyal to a healthy lifestyle.
Recently my boyfriend surprised me with a LINDT BAKING COURSE and from that moment I realized there is no use in trying to deny the inevitable... diets are not for me, chocolate is and so is this baking course!
Lindt only has a few baking courses in the world and conveniently enough one of them was only a stone throw away from our flat in Cape Town!
I don’t want to spoil the experience too much but when you get there, they provide you with an apron and a chefs hat! Yes, it is amazing and yes, you do feel like you are about to be casted for Master Chef.
We did the Master’s Class: CUPCAKE COURSE!
We made Red Velvet Cupcakes with cream cheese frosting and Chocolate Cupcakes with chocolate frosting.
* Not going to lie, the Red Velvet cupcakes we made were hands down the best Red Velvet cupcakes I have ever tasted * BIG STATEMENT
I thought I had it all figured out when it came to cupcakes but little did I know there is a whole science behind baking.
They explain everything to you, even down to the nitty gritty on how to stir the ingredients, why you add the ingredients in the specified order, how to get the exact texture you want and how to avoid bubbles in your cupcakes. It is really, really cool and super interesting!
This is definitely an activity for anyone! We both really, really enjoyed it and loved having cupcakes to share with family and friends!
If cupcakes aren’t your thing (weirdo) they also have a macaroon and cake baking course which I look forward to taking part in as soon as possible!
If you’ve been or decide to go because of this post please let me know what you think of it! :)
