If you are completely new to the baking experience, not to worry! Baking is all about having fun and even the most seasoned bakers are constantly looking for new recipes or ideas to improve their craft.
How do I decide on a suitable baking class?
With the plethora of baking classes available, you are bound to be spoilt for choice! From rainbow cakes and artisan bread to traditional pastries and chocolate desserts, there are plenty of baking classes that you can choose from.
If you are overwhelmed by the variety of options available, here are some deciding factors to help narrow down your choices:
Selection of recipes
Are you looking to hone your cake baking skills? Or perhaps keen to master traditional pastries such as mooncakes, pineapple tarts or kueh? Knowing what type of food you want to bake can help you decide on the appropriate baking classes to consider.
There are various baking studios that specialise in a particular type of food, such as artisan bread or traditional pastries. Some studios even offer 3D jelly art if you are looking to try out something fancy.
Before signing up for a baking class, do some research to find out what is covered in the baking class. Knowing what recipe you want to learn or what baking techniques you want to improve on can help you to decide on the appropriate baking classes.
Individual experience
Most baking classes would indicate the level of difficulty to give you an idea of what to expect from the baking class. It provides you with an idea as to whether prior baking knowledge is required before you attend the class.
For instance, attending a cookie baking class does not necessarily require any prior baking experience. Baking Danish pastries, on the other hand, might require you to have some basic baking knowledge.
Some baking studios even offer masterclasses with established bakers if you are looking to further advance your baking skills.
Cost
Baking classes definitely do not come cheap! The cost of learning how to make bread can start from $90 up to $260 for beginners. Advanced classes typically cost more.
However, the cost is justifiable as baking classes often provide the necessary ingredients, utensils, and baking equipment. On top of that, you get to pick up nifty baking tricks from the lead chef which you cannot get from recipes.
As various baking studios may have different baking methods and recipes, compare between classes to determine the cost of the baking classes and whether you are comfortable with the fee. If you are a beginner, it might be helpful to start off with a basic and inexpensive course to gain some baking experience. If you are a serious baker, you might be willing to pay more to attend an advanced lesson or masterclass.
Duration
Depending on the baking class that you sign up, the duration of the class may vary. It can be as short as 3.5 hours to an entire day. Ultimately, it boils down to the recipe that is taught during the class.
For example, cookie baking classes may be shorter as compared to bread making classes due to the time required for the dish to be completed.
If you are looking for something quick and fuss-free, perhaps consider taking up short baking classes that are two to three hours long. However, if you are looking to learn a complicated and advanced baking recipe, be prepared to commit longer hours.
What can I expect from a typical baking class?
No two baking classes are ever the same. Each baking class has its own theme, baking technique, and will typically focus on different types of food.
However, regardless of whether you sign up for a beginner or professional class, you can expect the following from a typical baking class:
Hands-on participation
Baking is all about getting your hands sticky and dirty! Without you actively trying out the various baking techniques and seeing how they work, there is absolutely no way for you to learn and master the various recipes.
That is why most baking classes will ensure that you see through the entire baking process from start to finish.
Listening to the chef
There may be times whereby you are tempted to try things for yourself and times whereby you need to hear what more experienced people have to say. After all, that is the key reason why you take up a baking class – to learn new baking techniques and recipes from someone more experienced.
Interacting with others
Part of the fun in taking up baking classes (besides getting your hands dirty and learning new recipes) is sharing the experience with others. Without a healthy level of interaction with other class participants, it becomes easier for you to get bored and distracted.
While the primary goal is to learn new recipes and baking techniques, it is also important to relax, enjoy each other’s company, and have fun!
Learning new baking techniques
Each baking class and chef would have their own methods and techniques of baking. You would be wasting your time in any class if you did not pick up any new baking tricks and techniques.
Even if you have a family secret recipe that has been passed down from generations, be ready to hear new ideas and discover new ways of making various baked goods.
Delicious treats at the end of the session
Regardless of the class that you take, the best thing to look forward to is the end product that you have created. Besides learning new ways of baking and new recipes, most classes also come with a delicious box of baked treats that you can bring home to proudly show off!
