Semlor Lenten Buns
Join Mary Storey for an enchanting evening making the Swedish delight Semlor Lenten Buns. Tied to the fasting tradition of Lent, semlor are cardamom-scented buns filled with almond-paste and whipped cream. Mary’s version includes a tart Raspberry Jam to offer a fruity foil to the rich, creamy filling, but you can serve yours with or without…you’ll still go home with a delicious jam for spreading on toast or dolloping on yogurt.
King Cakes- Two Ways!
Come along and learn to make not one, but TWO of these spectacular King Cakes- Just in Time for Mardi Gras! You’ll learn to make the dough from scratch plus make homemade New Orleans Style Filling (Cinnamon, Pecan, Raisin and Bourbon) and a modern twist on the French Classic Frangipane Filling, plus make an adorable golden chocolate baby to hide in your cakes when serving! You’ll go home with your two loaves, a batch of dough so you can make another one (or fry it and make beignets if you’re daring) plus your chocolate babies! Best of all, you’ll get to sample both of your instructor’s cakes accompanied by a cup of Cafe du Monde coffee (or some LaVazza if chicory isn’t your thing!)
