The Earl Grey Dark Chocolate Cake Baking and Decorating Class is a must for anyone who loves refined flavors and elegant dessert combinations. In this immersive workshop, you’ll begin by learning how to bake a soft and aromatic Earl Grey sponge cake from scratch, mastering the infusion of tea into the batter to create a subtle yet fragrant flavor base.

Guided by expert instructors, you'll explore how to infuse whipping cream with Earl Grey tea, transforming it into a light and flavorful cream that beautifully complements the cake. You'll also learn to make a rich, smooth dark chocolate ganache to add a bold layer of depth and contrast. To elevate the texture and complexity of your creation, you’ll craft a delicate Earl Grey tea jelly — learning the correct way to bloom and use gelatine for the perfect consistency.

Once your elements are ready, you'll be guided through the process of cutting the sponge into even layers and assembling your cake with finesse. You’ll whip your Earl Grey cream to the perfect consistency, then apply it smoothly to frost your 6-inch round cake. Finally, you’ll explore elegant decorative piping techniques to add a stunning finish.

At the end of the class, you’ll take home a beautifully frosted Earl Grey Dark Chocolate Cake, ready to share with family and friends.

Join us and bring a touch of sophistication to your baking with this aromatic and indulgent dessert!

Patient Instructors

The baking session today was a wonderful start for me that I needed. I used to bake but without having knowledge on basics and few tips which are very crucial. The instructor was actively demonstrating techniques while providing close supervision with much patience. The ambience was spacious and clean too. Thank you, I truly enjoyed learning today.

Incredible Experience

Our company recently participated in a baking workshop hosted by Hands On Workshop Academy and it was an incredible experience! We learned to bake a lychee rose cake and fruit tart from scratch, and the results were amazing. The instructors were knowledgeable and patient, and the environment was clean and welcoming. A big thank you to H.O.W Academy for the warm hospitality and memorable day. Highly recommend H.O.W Academy for any baking workshops or special events!

Great for Beginners

This is my first time baking a layered sponge cake and my experience was very delightful. I booked a 1on1 lesson and my instructor was very keen to answer all questions and teach me proper techniques. The studio is quite spacious and the ambience is very relaxing. This place is great for anyone starting out and looking to build confidence in baking cakes.

Gained Confidence

I appreciated the hands-on practice. I learned valuable techniques, like how to achieve the perfect choux texture and pipe evenly shaped pastries. It also covered the ways to fill and decorate the pastries with 3 types of delicious cream. I love the venue, it's comfortable, with all the necessary tools and ingredients. I brought home 2 boxes of pastries, and my children finished them all at once—thumbs up!!

Very Satisfied

Despite being complete amateurs at baking, we had a great time from start to finish (3 hour workshop). With the guidance of our skilled and patient instructor, we learnt how to make the beautiful Osthmanthus Green Grape Jasmine Cake and Korean Cute Character Macarons. Very satisfied with the outcome and session! Loved the ambience of the workshop as well. Would highly recommend HOW to anyone who would like to get a crash course in baking and making pastries!

Rewarding and satisfying team activity

We've been sending our team of staffs for team activities since 2019 and it has been not only rewarding but satisfying. It's relatively easy for us to communicate with the person in charge to arrange the workshops and tutors.

The sessions we loved most were by international tutors especially. During MCO, we attended the local tutor workshops as well. There was a time where host decided to throw in a challenge and one of our team members won! It was a giveaway. Our team members are now able to produce good bakes.

Overall, for all the 10+ sessions we attended, they were no hassle at all. As we are in service provider industry, we know it is not easy organizing and handling all the little things, but we thought of dropping by a review here to let Hands On Workshop team know our heartfelt appreciation.

Thank you!

Recommended baking workshop

Attended the chocolate and berries tart workshop. Chef Stephanie was clear with her instructions and demonstrations, albeit a little fast pace but she was very patient in answering questions throughout the workshop.

It is beginner friendly as each steps are broken down into smaller steps and demonstrated by the instructor. They have a team of assistants to assist as well if we face any difficulties during the process. Tried the tart and I was pleasantly surprised it's something I made. The shell was thin and crunchy, the chocolate filling was rich and the berry mousse was smooth and not too sweet. I would recommend this workshop to anyone who loves tart and has difficulty baking tart shells like I did.
