Future meetings are going to be a mixture of ‘in person’ demonstrations and Zoom
meetings – this enables us to invite fabulous demonstrators from all over the world, and
members and guests that are unable to travel to us to be a part of our community.
Please find below our 2024 programme which is still in progress – we are waiting for confirmations and photos from some exciting demonstrators and will be sending out the new programme to members as soon as it is finalised.
The club was formed in 1982 to share the skills used in cake decorating and producing items made from sugar as an art form.
Meetings are at St Francis Church Hall most months (except August and December) to watch demonstrations of the various methods for cake decorating and any new ways of using edible materials to produce decorative items. The club have regular workshops to improve skills and try out new techniques or materials.
This is an absorbing and creative craft and visitors are very welcome to come and see what we do (first visit free).
If you would like to become a member £20 per annum. This includes all demonstrations with coffee and cake. Workshops are extra at special rates for members and include lunch.
We look forward to welcoming you to our sugar craft club.
