In this 4-week baking spectacular, kids will learn and prepare a different, Fall-themed, baked good in each experience: fall cakes, fresh apple pie, warm pumpkin bread, and Halloween-decorated cookies! Every week will also include a seasonal craft project, for example leaf art, painting pumpkins, Halloween decorations, and more!
Depending on when you book your series, the Halloween experience will be scheduled closest to All Hallows' Eve!
Week 1: Spice cake or carrot cake with icing; a leaf art pressing or drawing
Week 2: Pumpkin bread; mini-pumpkin painting and decorating
Week 3: Halloween cookies with spooky, frosted decorations; a Halloween wood block craft
Week 4: Apple pie with crust made from scratch; paint stamping with apples
