Home Economics was the bane of my school years. Each week I would create a new disaster in the kitchen and take it home for my poor suffering family to sample. I'm pretty sure if I'd blindfolded them they wouldn't have been able to tell the difference between my chocolate brownies and my beef lasagne. No really, I was that bad.

Leave those school memories behind and enjoy a more creative experience for just €15 with a children's or adults' cake baking, decorating and sugar-craft class with The Cake Creator, Gorey.

In the adults class you'll learn how to bake cupcakes (a skill that will be much appreciated by friends and family), being careful to get that all-important cake to icing ratio just right. But the best part of the lesson is learning how to master the art of cake decorating and sugarcraft to make your creations really stand out.

Your budding Jamie or Nigela will have heave heaps of fun learning how to bake cake pops in a variety of different flavours (chocolate, raspberry, lemon, toffee or vanilla). They'll also get really creative with model sugar decorations of their favourite Disney characters.

If you're looking to build upon these skills you can purchase more coupons to attend up to four classes and progress to the next stages of cake decorating and sugar-craft.

All ingredients are supplied, all you need to bring with you is a container and a sprinkling of imagination.
