Indulge in the art of enriched bread baking in this deliciously immersive class featuring Chocolate Babka with Coffee Syrup. In this class Mary Storey will guide you step-by-step through creating a beautifully swirled, bakery-style loaf packed with rich chocolate flavor and finished with a bold coffee-infused syrup.

You’ll learn how to mix and knead a soft, buttery brioche-style dough, develop proper gluten structure, and achieve the perfect rise. We’ll walk through making a luscious chocolate filling, then demonstrate the signature rolling, slicing, and twisting technique that creates babka’s iconic layered swirl.

To elevate the flavor, you’ll prepare a fragrant coffee syrup that’s brushed over the warm loaf, adding moisture, shine, and a subtle espresso kick that perfectly complements the chocolate.

In this class, you’ll learn:

·       How to prepare enriched yeast dough from scratch

·       Proper proofing and fermentation techniques

·       Creating and spreading a smooth chocolate filling

·       Shaping and twisting babka for a stunning presentation

Join Brian Knowles in welcoming Spring with two of his favorite flavors-lemon and blueberry, both found in this Sunny Lemon Blueberry Cake. 

You’ll start the day by making your lemon scented mascarpone cake. The mascarpone helps to keep the cake soft and moist and allows the wonderful lemon and blueberry flavors to shine through. 

The blueberries will be found between the layers in an easy to make blueberry compote that will wow and surprise everyone who eats this cake. Blueberry and lemon are a match made in heaven. 

Bringing this all together with even more lemon flavor is a swiss meringue buttercream. This silky-smooth icing is made by heating egg whites and sugar over a double boiler, whipping to stiff peaks, then adding butter and flavoring with lemon extract. You’ll be amazed at how easy this buttercream is to make and work with. 

You’ll finish the day learning how to create an ombre effect in shades of yellow and white. Brian will teach you how to use your offset spatula to create a pattern on the sides of your cake so you don’t have to worry about getting them smooth.

The final decorating touches will include thinly sliced fresh lemons dehydrated in the oven earlier in the day. These will bring height and the wow factor to your cake. 

You’ll be star baker when you share this Sunny Lemon Blueberry Cake with friends and family. Every bite will bring a smile to their faces.

Everything Matzo: Passover Cooking with International Flair

Forget everything you think you know about cooking with matzo. In this creative, hands-on Passover class, we’ll reimagine this humble staple as the foundation for bold, unexpected, and deeply satisfying dishes inspired by global flavors and modern technique.

Together, we’ll explore just how versatile matzo can be—transforming it into a light, airy sponge cake, a savory matzo “dough” that becomes playful twists on comfort food classics like matzo ball–style Scotch eggs and crispy, melty “matzo-rella” balls, and finishing on a sweet note with an irresistible matzo bark. Along the way, you’ll learn techniques for working with matzo meal and sheets, balancing texture and moisture, and building flavor while staying within the spirit of Passover cooking.

This class is designed for cooks of all experience levels—whether you’re a seasoned home cook looking to refresh your holiday menu or someone who longs for the flavors of Passover dishes from “back home,” reinterpreted in fun and modern ways. Expect plenty of hands-on cooking, tasting, and conversation, plus practical tips you can adapt for your own Passover table.

Please Note:
The Florida Academy of Baking is not a kosher kitchen, and we cannot guarantee that the matzo used in class will be certified Kosher for Passover. However, all recipes taught can be made Kosher for Passover when prepared with certified ingredients in a kosher kitchen.

Come curious, come hungry, and get ready to see matzo in a whole new light.

You’ve asked for it and now its here! Spend your day with Brian Knowles as he teaches you how to make four breakfast favorites using your sourdough discard.

Sourdough Discard Buttermilk Biscuits have more tang and complex flavors than a traditional flaky biscuit. These biscuits are great for breakfast or even dessert just by adding bit of sugar. Brian will share how to add discard to many recipes as this is his own buttermilk biscuit recipe he adapted to use discard.

These Sourdough Discard Bagels are chewy, golden brown and easy to make. The sky is the limit for toppings. Everything bagel seasoning, poppy or sesame seeds, salt, asiago cheese, maybe even cinnamon crunch. Your friends and family will be amazed that you made these bagels from scratch. Slice these bagels before freezing and you have a quick breakfast, just pop in the toaster and you are out the door.

Sourdough Discard English Muffins are so easy they don’t even require a stand mixer-just one bowl! These no knead English muffins are tender and soft with a golden brown exterior. Make a batch and enjoy them with butter and homemade jam, or make your own breakfast sandwiches – bacon, egg and cheese anyone?! You can make these the same day or for even more flavor let the dough cold ferment overnight. 

Sourdough Discard Cinnamon Crunch Toasty Crackers are a cracker version of the popular breakfast cereal. Lots of cinnamon and sugar coat these discard crackers. These are a favorite in the FAB kitchen and never last long after they come out of the oven.

Mini Pies: Sweet & Savory with Rory

Join Rory for a fun, flavor-packed evening of making (and eating!) irresistible sweet and savory mini pies. You’ll kick things off by creating your sweet filling—choose apple or cherry and customize it with a variety of delicious add-ins like nuts, marzipan, or even booze-soaked dried fruit for an extra punch of flavor.

While your filling cools, you’ll learn how to make Rory’s wonderfully versatile pie dough. As the dough rests, it’s time to move on to your savory filling—your choice of classic Chicken Pot Pie or hearty Vegetable Pot Pie.

Then comes the magic: Rory will teach you the secrets to crafting perfectly formed double-crust mini pies with lids that don’t shrink. During class, you’ll bake a couple of your creations to enjoy for dinner (and dessert!), and you’ll take the rest home—ready to freeze and bake whenever the craving strikes.

This class is a fantastic introduction to easy meal prep, and the flexible recipes make it simple to experiment, customize, and recreate these cozy little pies anytime you’d like!

Join Brian Knowles on a Sunday morning and learn how to make your own Focaccia Pizza at home PLUS his Cookie Dough Focaccia for dessert.

We'll have a batch of dough ready for you and Brian will teach you how to make the dough (you'll go home with your own batch of dough so you can make more focaccia over the coming days.) While your dough is resting, Brian will teach you his signature sauce (the one he's been perfecting for the last couple of years) and the secret technique he uses when baking the pizzas to get that rich depth of flavor. Once your sauce is ready, you'll have an assortment of toppings to choose from to customize your Focaccia Pizza.  

While your pizza is baking Brian will teach you how to take the classic FAB focaccia to the next level by adding Rory’s oatmeal chocolate chip cookie dough inside and out. Cookie dough is not only dotted on top but also folded into the dough for lots of pockets of sweet cookie goodness. The Cookie Dough Focaccia is great on its own or taken the next level as the base of a hot fudge sundae.

Want to take your sourdough baking to a new level? Join Brian Knowles as he teaches you how to successfully use whole wheat flour in your sourdough baking. 

You’ll begin the day by making the dough for a Whole Wheat Sourdough Boule. This loaf is 90% (ish) whole wheat, it could be 100% if you make it with a whole wheat sourdough starter. This is not the same as your regular white sourdough loaf, this loaf has a tight crumb and a rich nutty flavor. 

Sourdough Discard Thin Wheat Crackers are similar to the ones you buy in the yellow box at the store. The dough for these crackers is easy to work with, no mixer needed. These are great to keep around for satisfying those salty cravings and they look impressive on a cheeseboard for when company stops by unexpectedly. The dough for these crackers can be made a few days ahead, so that you can always have fresh crackers at a moments notice.

Sourdough Discard Whole Wheat Dinner Rolls are irresistibly soft, tender, and can be made entirely from 100 percent whole wheat flour (if whole wheat sourdough starter discard is used). Adding yeast speeds up the baking process and are so quick and delicious you will forget other rolls exist. 

Sourdough Whole Wheat Breakfast Cookies are a great way to start your day with a cup of coffee or tea. They are full of good for you ingredients! Olive oil, bananas, walnuts and sourdough starter (or discard).These cookies are very flexible. They can be made with discard or for a fluffier cookie, use active sourdough starter. The cookie dough can be made the day before and fermented overnight in the fridge.

So come spend the day with Brian and overcome your fears of baking with whole wheat flour. Your body will thank you for all the extra nutrients.
