Bake, Bond & Celebrate With a Private Workshop

Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, organising a hen party or looking for a unique team-building activity, my private group workshops offer a brilliant, hands-on way to spend time together.

Based at Napton Marina in Warwickshire, my kitchen is a warm and welcoming space where you’ll feel right at home – and have the whole place to yourselves!

All group bookings are arranged directly with me so we can pick a date that suits you and tailor the session to your group. You’ll enjoy exclusive use of the kitchen, all the baking gear you need, and of course – lots of cake and a glass (or two) of bubbly while we bake.

Informal Group Bookings – Just for Fun!

I absolutely love hosting private baking experiences for birthdays, hen dos, children’s parties or just a good old get-together with your best friends. We’ll laugh, mix, whisk and bake our way through the session, with plenty of time to enjoy what you’ve made.

Whether you're after something elegant and Instagram-worthy or want to bake something simple and indulgent, we’ll design a session that suits your vibe. The atmosphere is relaxed, fun and totally inclusive – you don’t need to be an expert baker to join in and have a great time.

Corporate Team-Building Baking Experiences

Looking for a fresh, creative way to get your team working together? My corporate baking workshops are perfect for businesses who want to step away from the office and into a fun, collaborative environment.

Baking is a brilliant team-building tool – it encourages communication, creativity and a sense of shared achievement. In my kitchen, teams bond naturally over a shared task (and maybe a cake or two), with plenty of opportunities to chat, laugh and learn something new. The sessions are fully guided by me, with all equipment and refreshments included. It’s a relaxed and rewarding way to boost morale and reconnect with your colleagues in a totally different setting.

I can’t recommend Louise’s kids parties highly enough! The organisation was fantastic, the kids had so much fun and it was really reasonably priced. They came away with skills and lots of sweet treats. Perfect for my 8 year old and her 6 friends.

My goddaughter and I did a workshop with Louise back in August. Louise was friendly, informative and a lot of fun. We had a wonderful time and my goddaughter has already asked if we can book to do another workshop. Would highly recommend.

A fantastic morning to celebrate a birthday! Great workshop! Louise was so lovely. Booking was easy and was in touch about it before hand. A really relaxed and lovely session. Great mix of baking, decorating but also drinking tea (and Prosecco) and eating lots of lovely treats! We got to bring so much home with us that we had made and despite all saying ‘ours won’t look as good as that’ they all looked brilliant! It was great to learn things which we can use again at home when baking. Will certainly be taking more people and visiting again!

The macaron baking experience was my 10 year olds Christmas gift. We had the most wonderful day with Lou who effortlessly managed a young baker.

From the demonstrations and then careful guidance we both produced a perfect set of macarons. My daughter was thrilled and the sweet treats sampled whilst we waited for everything to bake were amazing.

I would highly recommend this experience - both my daughter and I loved it.

An absolutely amazing afternoon tea experience and would definitely recommend to others! Louise was so warm and welcoming and showed us everything step by step to create some amazing treats. We made cupcakes, scones and mousse as well as getting to eat an afternoon tea with Prosecco as a little break. We had a fabulous time and got to take everything home at the end and it tastes delicious! I would 100% go back for another one of the workshops she provides.

My children (10 and 12) had an amazing time with The Cakesmith tonight for a Technical Young Bakers Workshop. They’ve absolutely loved their experience and are looking forward to coming back again.

I had an amazing time with Louise at The CakeSmith. An older lady with no experience of making a cake since leaving school and never iced a cake. We had a 1 to 1 session today which was lovely. I was not disappointed in my day at all. I have got to take home some delicious items and cannot wait to practice some more. Highly recommend visiting here.

We really enjoyed our treatbox workshop today. Louise was warm and friendly and made us feel at ease really quickly. We had a fantastic time. It was so lovely to pause in between activities to try some different tasty nibbles all presented beautifully to make it feel like a real treat! The workshop was really clear to follow along, well organised and Louise was so approachable to ask questions or ask for a little help! Even though we had both done baking at home previously we both came away having learned some new skills, techniques, tips and tricks and are absolutely thrilled with what we had created! Can't wait to give some new ideas and equipment a try! Will keep an eye out for future workshops and would love to come back. 💕
