Allendale Bakery

Yes, it’s true, we’re going on our next bakers’ holiday, assessing the taste and variety of focaccia in Sicily, and that’s a booked fact!

It might not be summer on the banks of newly erupting Mt. Etna, but it’s likely to be mild, clement, and an opportunity for us to recover in time for our wonderful breadmaking courses!  Last year we brought back a new capacity to make real artsian French baguettes (following our sojourn in the south of France);  this year we mean to engage with real Italian bread and bring back some wonderful new ideas on a Sicilian theme.    So our lovely customers will have to stockpile our bread in their freezers in anticipation, or else make their own, while we holiday from the 22nd of January until the 8th of February.  Molti grazzi!

There’s been such a huge amount of interest in our breadmaking courses!

A couple of places have arisen as a result of late cancellations, in two breadmaking courses:

Tuesday, 1st November:  1 new place is available in Breadmaking for Beginners

Tuesday 22nd November:  2 new places now available in Sourdough Techniques

Each course lasts a full day (8:30 am to 4:30 pm) and all components are provided, along with morning coffee, a delicious lunch, and afternoon tea.  What’s more, everything you bake you take home!  The price is a very reasonable £75, or £60 if two courses are booked (just feasible at this last minute).

It’s crucial that you contact the bakery on (01434) 618879 to ensure places are still available, before making a formal booking.
