Had a great experience this week when 2 girls I studied with (a very long time ago) had booked into Little Oaks. That together with the brilliant bunch already booked, proved to be a brilliant day - loads of fun and laughter. Here’s a pic of us having a little break, some pre-dinner nibbles and of course a Christmas cocktail lol xxx
Had a great time on Saturday with people from the ‘I love my Aga Group ‘. Here’s what we made and managed to eat it all lol xx
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! We have just a few Cookery School places left this year; celebrating Christmas conventional hands on, 2 places on both 24 November and 15 December. Aga Christmas, hands on , 2 places 1 December. Each is priced at £50. If you are interested please phone 0797 4349850. Meanwhile I’ll get back to decorating my bite sized Christmas cakes lol xxx

Busy morning preparing for the first Christmas Demo at AGA Belfast next Friday. Always good to start with a cuppa - mini Christmas cakes, mini mince pies, Christmas shortbread ... yum.

Saturday 15 December, conventional 3 spaces. If you are interested or have any questions please ring 0797 4349850, thanks x
After such a busy week it was wonderful to spend an afternoon walking on the north coast - no place like it!!! From Castlerock beach, Black Glen, Lions Gate, Bishops Gate (for the perfect coffee from Al’s) the coastal path around Mussenden Temple, back to Castlerock- beautiful!
‘A Taste of India’ at Little Oaks yesterday was busy - roasting and grinding spices, making curry pastes, kulfi(Indian icecream), Indian butter biscuits and samosas, but mostly we had lots of fun.
Busy weekend for Little Oaks - Friday, Saturday and Sunday at the Love Your Home event, Belfast, demonstrating in the Phoenix Village on a brilliant Rangemaster cooker. Big big thank you to Nicky Stone from Ian A Kernohan Ltd who definitely stepped up to the plate demonstrating some great cooking skills and Matthew Barry whose help once again was brilliant. I’m so sorry there are no pics of the food as it was eaten so quickly there was just no time for photos xxx
Had such a great time on Saturday with a wonderful group of people xx
Just home from our travels and I could not wait to create a NI spin on some of the delicious pastries from the islands. Pastel de Nata and little apple and chocolate fingers. First attempt was ok, now to nail down the recipe which I hope to be making this Saturday. We now have 3 spaces available Saturday 29 September at 10:00. If you are interested ring 07974349850 xx
La Coruña today, historic and interesting old and new town to wander around not to mention trying the fabulous cured hams
I think we earned coffee today, climb, cable car ride and walk through the botanical gardens, fruit and flower markets - all stunning, Madeira is so much more than a cake lol xx
What a beautiful little island, colourful, interesting, friendly and delicious local specialities x
Thought I’d share last nights fruit art. On a not so healthy note also a shot of today’s coffee in Santa Cruz- so impressed Iv decided to add these pastries to the autumn hands on Saturday 29 September. Few places available pm or text to book on 07974349850, thanks
Busy day yesterday, getting lots of tips from a master shushi chef, and we fully enjoyed the course. Today it’s exploring and a little chilling in a roof top cafe yum xx
Beautiful Cádiz today, just couldn’t decide between the chocolate or apple local pastry in the amazing little plaza del Flores x
Lisbon, Portugal today, so it must be pastel de nata at an amazing little bakery x
Wow, really enjoying this coffee shop in Vigo, Spain. Getting lots of inspiration for the up and coming courses at Little Oaks
Plums, apples, blackberries, all from our garden, are just a few of the seasonal ingredients you could be cooking with on Saturday 29 September starting to cook at 10:30, price £50, a few places available. If interested or have any questions please ring 07974349850, thanks x
