Brian’s Stinging Bee Cake

Sunday, September 7, 2025 | 3:00PM - 6:00PM

$179.00 per station (Suitable for Dynamic Duos- please see below for more details)

Join Brian Knowles as he teaches you his updated version of the classic German Bienenstich (Bee Sting) Cake. Brian’s Stinging Bee Cake is a great addition to your Oktoberfest celebration.

• Moist Honey Cake

• Stabilized Diplomat Cream

• Raspberry Jam

• Soft Caramel

Although the traditional bee sting cake is made with a sweet yeast dough, Brian has chosen to make his with a moist honey cake. The cake is sliced in half and filled with a stabilized diplomat cream.  Diplomat cream is a vanilla pastry cream that is then lightened up with some sweetened whipped cream. Gelatin is added to the whipped cream to help stabilize the filling. Raspberry jam, not found in the traditional bee sting cake, is spread between the layers. The jam helps cut through the richness of the diplomat cream and the honey cake. Brian will teach you how to make a soft caramel to spread on top of your cake which then has toasted almond slivers sprinkled on top.

Brian’s Stinging Bee Cake is sure to be the star of any celebration or meal, not just Oktoberfest. This cake holds up well for three or four days (if it lasts that long) and gets better with age. Leftovers (if there are any) go well with a cup of tea for an afternoon pick me up. 

This class is suitable for the following Dynamic Duo types:

YES: Parent/Grandparent & Child

YES: Couples

YES: Friends (you will share all equipment/ingredients for 1 recipe/batch…we let you rock, paper, scissors if the recipe doesn’t divide equally.)

(Don’t worry, we won’t stick you with some random stranger- if you want to fly solo, you’ll have the station (and all the yummy food) all to yourself!)

We provide all ingredients, supplies, and tools required for use during each class. Best of all you get to take home whatever tasty treats you make - we provide all boxes/packaging.

London Fog Cake takes the flavors of a London Fog latte and puts them in to a cake. You have layers of deliciously moist Earl Grey tea infused cake, silky smooth Earl Grey buttercream, and salted caramel drips for a cake sure to impress everyone.

Earl Grey tea is a black tea blend flavored with the oil found in the rind of the bergamot orange, which give it its unique aroma and flavor. The name ‘London Fog’ comes from the effect of foamy milk hitting the black tea and creating a cloud-like plume, resembling a foggy London afternoon, even though the drink was created in Canada.

To achieve the London Fog flavor in cake form you start off steeping Earl Grey tea in milk that will be used in both the cake and the buttercream. The cake layers also have loose leaf Earl Grey tea added to the batter to create a lovely flecked appearance, along with sour cream and cake flour keep the layers moist and tender. For more London Fog flavor, you can add a few drops of either bergamot or lavender oil to both the cake batter and buttercream.

The finished cake is beautifully decorated with a salted caramel drip, buttercream rosettes and loose leaf tea sprinkled on top. Although salted caramel is not traditionally part of a London Fog, it adds some sweet complexity to the whole cake and grabs your attention. Earl Grey tea lovers will be in heaven with this cake!

Okay, so there is some debate at FAB about what to call these- Similar to Travel Cakes, but baked in pie tins for easy transport (and storage as they last a good while) but where Travel Cakes or Gateaux de Voyage generally only have a dusting of confectioner’s sugar or a light glaze, these beauties are covered with an Italian Meringue Buttercream Hybrid frosting and then covered with delicious coconut.

They are cake, but baked in Pie Tins, so how about Pakes? (Cake + Pie Tin = Pake?) Feel free to weigh in with your suggestions.

Join Mary Storey for an enchanting morning recreating the world’s most famous cake, the Classic Austrian Sacher-Torte,

• Sumptuous Chocolate Cake Layers filled with

• Delicious Apricot Jam and smothered in an

• Indulgent Dark Chocolate Glaze and decorated with

• the distinctive Sacher Piping and Edible Gold Leaf

The cake itself is the consequence of several lucky twists of fate. The first was in 1832, when the Austrian State Chancellor, Prince Klemens Wenzel von Metternich, tasked his kitchen staff with concocting an extraordinary dessert to impress his special guests. As fortune had it, the chef had fallen ill that evening, leaving the apprentice chef, the then-16-year-old Franz Sacher, to perform this culinary magic trick. Metternich’s parting words to the talented teenager: “I hope you won’t disgrace me tonight.”

Franz Sacher seized the moment and conjured up the confection of a lifetime, the chocolate cake that would go down in history as the ne plus ultra of desserts: the Original Sacher-Torte. Disgrace, in any case, was not on the menu that evening. The cake soon gained a cult following, and was deemed “presentable at court”. From then on, it was a favorite at the imperial court and soon went on to win the hearts (and palates) of the world.

Okay, so it may not be the prettiest cake, but it certainly lives up to its name! Most Norwegians refer to Kvæfjord cake (Kvæfjordkake) as simply ‘verdens beste’, or the world’s best cake- in 2002 they even voted it as the national cake of Norway.

Comprised of EIGHT* layers of deliciousness- in this class you’ll make:

• Norwegian Sponge Cake*

• Topped with Delicious Meringue and sliced Almonds (or not- the choice is yours)

• Lucious Vanilla Bean Diplomat Créme (Crème Pâtissière folded into light Chantilly Cream)

• Homemade Raspberry Conserve

• and filled with fresh fruit!

*Can be made Gluten Free- please specify at checkout if you would prefer this option. 

Kvæfjord is one of the most beautiful parts of Norway, nestled between the stunning Vesterålen islands and the town of Harstad. Kvæfjordkake got its name from the two sisters from Kvæfjord who first made this cake at Café Alliance in Harstad in the 1930s.

Although it may sound like a bit of a boast, the entire FAB team agrees…even Sebastian!

*The original Verdens Beste is a meringue topped Norwegian sponge cake filled with a velvety vanilla cream. However, Angela had some fresh raspberries on hand and had just made a delicious homemade Raspberry Conserve, so… it just needed to be done. Of course, you can do the original five layer version if you prefer, but really, why would you want to?

You have the choice of making one large round cake or the sheet pan version which can easily be divided into two (perfect for Dynamic Duos.)

Join Mary Storey for a wonderful evening making Traditional* Panettone! During the class you will learn to fill, shape and bake a batch of pre-risen dough (so you’re not waiting around for hours.) While your panettone is baking you’ll learn to make a batch of dough to bring home so you can make more delicious Panettone to share with your friends and family! Plus, Mary will have a surprise Panettone dessert made for you to sample (don’t worry, she’ll share the recipe too) in addition to serving her freshly baked loaf.

Panettone is probably the most iconic Italian Christmas cake. It is instantly recognizable for its beautifully tall dome shape. Panettone is a sweet, soft, and buttery bread similar to brioche. The dough is traditionally loaded with lemon and/or orange zest, and a mix of dried and candied fruit and baked in a paper mold to give it the characteristic shape.

*If dried fruit isn’t your thing, we’ll also have chocolate chips and a variety of nuts including pistachios and hazelnuts to choose from.

Legend has it that Panettone’s origin goes back to the late 1400s… during a luxurious Christmas banquet given by the Duke of Milan, the desert they were meant to server was burnt. A kitchen apprentice called Toni, came up with a rich brioche bread filled with raisins and candied fruit. The Duke loved it, and so the tradition of 'Pane di Toni' was born and later changed to "panettone" and become a bread of luxury.
