Baking hen party at the Academie

What to expect:

Hen parties at the Academie are tailored to your requirements. For this hen do, the bride was a keen baker, so a baking party was the perfect match.

Hens were welcomed with a complimentary glass of prosecco and a madeleine flavoured with orange zest and lemon and dipped in dark chocolate, it was a party after all. As the sun was shining the bubbly was served outside.

We then came back in and started some serious baking. The hens rolled their own sweet shortcrust (pâte sablée) and  baked some blueberry and raspberry frangipane. They then made their own chocolate tarts filled with a gorgeous ganache and pipped their own personalised decorations using white chocolate.

To finish in style, they also made their own fruits tarts, filled with a delicious crême pâtissière.They were able to pick fresh mint from the garden to decorate them in style. Impressive what can be done in just two hours. Each hen got to go back with a box of their own creation. So what’s not to like.
