'Make a Bake'. A new monthly baking group. Starts 18th August. East Dulwich.


Recommended Posts

Let's start an East Dulwich baking group! Myself and Tash want to start a group that meets monthly to taste each others delicious baked goods whilst enjoying a drink and chat! This is not about competition (or we'd have called the group 'The Great Dulwich Bake Off'!), it's just a relaxed way to try and share ideas with fellow amateur bakers.


I will hold the first one at my house and then hopefully others could host. The premise is simple, bring along something you've baked! For the first one there will be no theme, bring along anything you like. In the following months we might have themes e.g. tarts, biscuits, cakes, bread etc.


It will be held on the third Tuesday of each month starting on 18th August at 7:45/8pm.


Please PM me if you are interested.


Looking forward to meeting fellow bakers:-)

Dear Holly and Tash,


This sounds like a great idea! I'm sure there are lots of keen bakers lurking in ED - especially given the plethora of Kitchen shops on Lordship lane! I'm all for sharing recipes and baking tips = can we persuade others to join?

Fab idea! I'll run the date past the hubby as he'll have to look after the kids but hopefully I can join this first evening. Question, what will we do with all the leftover cake...? As we'd all be bringing one whole cake?

Hope you can make it, let me know if so and I'll PM you the details. I hadn't thought about leftovers! Take it home or to work I guess. And it doesn't have to be cake for baking, it can be pies, biscuits, bread, tarts etc. It would be nice to have variety :-)


Hope to see you on the 18th.

Hello fellow bakers!


The first meeting on 18th August is almost here! Hope you've managed to decide what to bake:-)


If I've forgotten to give anyone my phone number and address please let me know and I'll private message you. We'll meet from 7:30 with a view to start at 8. I'll have tea and coffee but feel free to bring wine etc.


At the first meeting we can discuss future meetings, locations, format etc.


Can't wait to meet you all and taste your baking!

Hello :-)


Thank you so much to everyone who came along tonight for our first session! It was great fun and I think it's fair to say we're all pretty full! I'll post again in the next few days with the plan for the next few sessions, dates, themes etc.


In the meantime if anyone would like to share their recipes from tonight, please do so!


Holly xx

    • I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me. 
    • If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?
    • I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing. 
    • interesting read.  We're thinking about the same things for our kids in primary school as well. One thing I don't understand about Charter ED is whether they stream / set kids based on ability.  I got the impression from an open evening that it is done a little as possible. All i could find on-line was this undated letter - https://www.chartereastdulwich.org.uk/_site/data/files/users/18/documents/9473A8A3547CCCD39DBC4A55CA1678DC.pdf?pid=167 For the most part, we believe in mixed ability teaching and do not stream in Year 7 or Year 8. The only exceptions to this are that we have a small nurture class for Maths. This is a provision for students who scored lower than 85 in their SATS exams and is designed to support them to acquire the skills to access the learning in mainstream class. We do not have nurture classes for any other subjects. We take a more streamed - though not a setted - approach in Maths and Science from Year 9 onwards. though unsure if this is still accurate reflection of policy, and unsure of difference between streaming and setting.
