Can anyone name this song? Maybe we should cheer him up, then? What do you suppose we should do? Well, does he like Butter Tarts?

Not sure they’re implying Butter Tarts are the cure to everything that ails you, but these handheld bundles of sweet, buttery maple filling encased in a flaky, buttery pastry shell will surly put a smile on your face. These little tarts are rich, decadent and a favorite all across Canada. They are a near cousin to the American Pecan Pie, but with Maple Syrup as the main flavor. In class you’ll make and learn all the secrets to creating a flaky pastry dough, and while your dough is resting, you’ll move on to making the Canadian Butter Tart Filling. Go traditional with nuts and dried fruits or turn up the yum by adding in some dark or white chocolate chips! You’ll leave with a dozen tarts, so yo can try a few of each! Just what the doctor ordered, eh? Sorry, I really shouldn’t be left unattended writing these descriptions late at night…and I have that song stuck in my head now.

This class is suitable for the following Dynamic Duo* types:

YES: Parent/Grandparent & Child

YES: Couples (live in the same household)

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 people 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.

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.
