Sugar, Spice & Festive Delights with Emma Kay
Discover the complex historical and diverse origins of spiced biscuits, (or is it cake?) how they were made and shaped. In this workshop you can make your own Victorian inspired Christmas tree decoration and investigate some of the festive symbolism to be found in old culinary moulds.
Food Historian and Archaeologist Emma Kay will guide you through the process of grinding and moulding using original artefacts from her collection.
