ABOUT YOUR TUTOR

I'm Liz and I home bake and hand decorate every one of Simply Scrumptious Cupcakes' delicious organic cakes and cupcakes, and have done for more than a decade!

I offer a huge range of traditional and unusual flavour combinations including Madagascan vanilla, black bottom and red velvet. I even create cupcakes using foraged ingredients such as meadowsweet and elderflower.

I only ever use free range eggs and choose to use organic, local, British and Fairtrade ingredients wherever possible. 

I have been running cupcake decorating classes in Eccleshall since February 2012. These small classes provide a lovely fun and relaxed atmosphere where you will learn to create beautiful sugarpaste models and fabulous piping techniques to make your cakes stand out at home.

I have also written a cupcake recipe book : Simply Scrumptious Cupcakes by Liz Berwick, available from Amazon, online with your booking, or at my classes .

I can also provide a quote for private baking and decorating classes and decorating parties on request.These cost £199 for a class for 1 person or £250 for 2, with a 20% discount for mid-week workshops. 

For this I provide 3.5-4 hour tuition, all  recipes, equipment and ingredients are included in the price.

I also offer a Regular Baker tariff for anyone wanting to learn lots of different baking skills. Attend 5 classes for the price of 4. Book your first ticket here and them contact me directly to book subsequent classes.
