Q: What’s a Bee’s favorite cake?
A: Bienenstich!
Join Brian Knowles for a Wunderbar class making the exquisite Bienenstich (Bee Sting Cake)…bee-lieve me, it is so worthy of all the buzz!
Lightly Sweetened Brioche Dough
Diplomat Cream (a light, fluffy Creme Patisserie filling)
Homemade Raspberry Conserve (boozy or not, the choice is yours)
Caramelized Almonds
Traditionally, this light, yeasty cake is layered with a fluffy pastry cream-based filling and crowned with a golden halo of crunchy caramelized honey and almonds. Fortunately for you, Brian has been hanging around with Angela a little too long and decided to add a sumptuous layer of Homemade Raspberry Conserve to the mix…it really is the bees knees! Okay, I’ll stop now… but I can’t promise there won’t be more bee puns! Dynamic Duos will have the option of making two smaller cakes or one large one.
This class is suitable for the following Dynamic Duo types:
YES: Parent/Grandparent & Child
YES: Couples
YES: Friends (you will share all equipment/ingredients for 1 recipe/batch…we let you rock, paper, scissors if the recipe doesn’t divide equally.)
*What is a Dynamic Duo? It’s basically two buddies sharing the same workstation at no extra charge. You share all equipment and ingredients for a single batch of whatever we’re making that day. (Don’t worry, we won’t stick you with some random stranger- if you want to fly solo, you’ll have the station (and all the yummy food) all to yourself!) On Chef/Date Nights you will always have enough for two and generally extra to bring home too.
We provide all ingredients, supplies, and tools required for use during each class. Best of all you get to take home whatever tasty treats you make - we provide all boxes/packaging.
Please wear comfortable shoes (stools will be provided) and have long hair tied back. For the comfort of all our students and staff, we ask that you refrain from wearing perfume or cologne. You may wish to bring a cardigan or sweater as the kitchen is kept at 68F.
