Breadmaking Classes in Gloucestershire

What a great way to learn more about baking bread. Small class with plenty of opportunity to ask questions. We covered so many aspects, some reminders, some new and some alternative methods like using the stand mixer. Thank you, a great morning.

I was bought this bread making course as a surprise birthday gift and loved it. Danielle makes you feel totally at ease and is clearly extremely knowledgeable. I loved learning a totally new way of kneading the dough and the end results were fantastic. We returned home with a huge haul of dough-based delights to share with the family. Thanks so much, Danielle x

Lovely course with Danielle on French Breads. Enjoyed making them and then eating them at home. Next step to have a go independently applying what I learnt using the instructions provided.

Highly recommend Severn bites bread making courses. I did the sourdough class and Danielle’s teaching was easy to follow with lots of information and tips. I’ve made several successful bakes since and so grateful to have learnt a skill for life. Thank you!

We had another fabulous morning with Danielle, this time learning about sourdough. She made us very welcome and expertly accommodated our different levels of experience. Danielle made the morning fun as well as informative, and we hugely enjoyed the products of our joint labours. We’ll be going back soon to try our hands at something else. High 6 recommended….

Very enjoyable and instructive, and a very fair price. Still trying to eat all the baguettes. The missing half in the photo was eaten on arrival home.

Highly recommended, an amazing day, with great company. Course content was clear and easy to understand. Everything needed was provided and the delivery from Danielle was superb.highly Enjoyable course and our first efforts at home, although far from what we made on course, tasted fine. We will keep working on our technique Danielle!! Thank you for your patience and help. 👏

My granddaughter and I really enjoyed our bespoke French bread making course. Danielle made it fun and interesting and we learnt such a lot from her. She had done a lot of preparation to ensure that we were able to make the most out of our time and experience making a range of breads. Best of all we got to take home lots of lovely products.

My friend and I did the Sourdough breadmaking course with Danielle. What a fantastic course. Danielle is a fabulous tutor. She shared her extensive knowledge with us and we were able to produce some great bakes. Would highly recommend this course and look forward to taking another course in the future. Thank-you Danielle, see you again soon!

We had a wonderful afternoon learning the art of sourdough making. We already had a little experience with sourdough, but were not managing to produce consistent quality loaves. Danielle tailored the class to us perfectly and we learnt so much in a couple of hours. She has created a simple method which is grounded in science and experience, and we can’t wait to put it into practice. I would highly recommend.

A really fantastic afternoon. Danielle was so helpful and full of handy hints. We came away with 6 sweet rolls, a granary style loaf and a focaccia. All absolutely delicious and I'm so delightful that I now have the hints and confidence to bake bread for myself after years of baking 'bricks'. 😂

I was delighted to take an online class with Danielle, who more than lived up to these glowing testimonies. She introduced me to making sourdough loaves in a calm and funny fashion and the product... well, let's just say, it was a delight and has kept on being so on a weekly basis ever since. So pleased to have met Danielle, even virtually. Thanks for the wisdom and the good humour.

My family bought me an online Baguette-baking course for Christmas. The correspondence from the start was very good, and all useful links were shared with me before my sessions started. Danielle was very informative and the pace of the sessions were perfect. I thought I knew a bit about bread-baking, but I soon realised how much more I could learn! The tips about temperatures and textures were very useful indeed. I made 4 baguettes which came out a lot better than I had hoped for - they made for a very tasty lunch later that day!

My wife bought me a voucher to attend one of Danielle's workshops and I decided to upgrade it to a one-on-one session looking at French bread making in particular. That was a great idea as working with Danielle in this way was really good. All the pre-workshop comms were great and, in these days, the COVID instructions were clearly set out for me. Danielle has a wonderful way of working with you and demonstrating the techniques of French Bread making. She also made it very interesting and we were soon flying along working on different breads using different flours and techniques. The morning shot by and towards the end we were already baking the first loaves. After a home cooked lunch, with homemade bread, of course, we spent time talking about places to buy bread making equipment and flour whilst we shaped the rest of the breads and then cooked them. By the end of the session I had 4 different types of bread to take away with me and one to cook the following morning. I had a wonderful time with Danielle and can wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who wants to learn how to bake bread or improve their skills. You will both enjoy yourself and come away with increased knowledge and wonderful bread. Thanks for a great day Danielle.

I found a couple of 30 minute Zoom sessions invaluable. I needed some professional help to speed up the process of learning to bake with a new oven ( a used Rofco from a baker who was expanding their business). Danielle has not only given me essential tips about ovens but a wider range of advice on the process of fermentation etc: helpful when you feel you are loosing your way. Definitely recommended!

I enjoyed a one-on-one baking day with Danielle which focused on sourdough bread and the Rofco oven. Although I had been baking for many years she really helped me with technique and had great suggestions for baking different loaves of bread. Her straightforward approach to baking bread and getting great results really stood out. I highly recommend her class.
