A coffee and pastry break, the Swedish ‘fika culture’, is the inspiration for your second bake. With expert guidance from our professional baker you will make beautiful and delicious Swedish cinnamon knots using an enriched, yeast-leavened dough and intricately twisted into a knotted bun before baking.
The two bakes you take home are sure to impress — and with your tin in hand, you’ll be ready and inspired to bake even more.
A unique opportunity to handmake, bake and take home two scrumptious bakes in a working bakery in just two hours!
