Our microbakery workshops are exclusively run by Magdalena Marsden who established her business in 2011 following a life long passion with bread. Magdalena's work background and experience (Managing Director and Operation's Director) helped her to set up, now very succesful baking business.

Our workshops are deliberately run in small groups to allow you to get the most of your day, ask as many questions as you like.

• Business Coaching - one follow up session via Skype and e-mail follow up after the session. This session is best booked within 3-6 months (or when you feel you need an extra help with your new adventure)
