Join Trine to celebrate the magic of Midsummer and immerse yourself in the rich traditions of Scandinavian baking. Midsummer is one of the most important celebrations in Scandinavia, filled with long sunny days, joyful gatherings, and of course, delicious baked goods. It’s all about embracing the "hygge," coming together with loved ones, and enjoying fresh, seasonal flavours.

You will bake:

  • Cardamom buns, a fragrant and soft pastry perfect for Midsummer feasts.
  • Rye crispbread, a Scandinavian staple to enjoy with summer cheeses and seafood.

Plus, Trine will demo her signature Midsommer berry-layer cake (lagkage), showcasing the best of seasonal Nordic ingredients.

All in the spirit of summer. You will learn essential baking techniques and tips, sprinkled with Scandinavian folklore and Midsummer traditions.

What's included:

  • Refreshments on arrival and available throughout the class

  • Apron and all necessary baking equipment

  • A recipe pack for you to take home

  • All ingredients provided and pre-measured for ease

  • A light lunch of your own making to enjoy as a class, paired with a glass of wine or soft refreshments

  • 10% discount on purchases made in-store on the day of your class, including cookery classes (excludes books, food, electrical items, gift vouchers, and sale items)

  • We take care of the washing up!

We handle all types of ingredients in the kitchen at Divertimenti and we are not able to completely allergen free environment, our kitchen is multi-purpose therefore this makes our kitchen unsuitable for those with life- threatening allergies, in such cases as these we would suggest getting in touch with the team to arrange a private lesson in your own home with one of our chefs.
