Our first Gingerbread workshop and what a fantastic turn out! Everyone got involved in making the dough, colouring the fondant Icing, rolling out and shaping the dough, cooking then decorating and of course plenty of tasting, yummy!!
It was the first time making Gingerbread for some and everyone seemed to really enjoy the experience and the taste of their homemade gingerbread.
Special thanks to Pip our Trustee for doing all the preparation and running the workshop a thank you also to our volunteers for their support as without you these events wouldn't happen.
