The best part of our time in Dublin. Emily was an amazing host and baker. We made apple cake and scones. We sat at her dining room table and ate our baked goods with tea. Emily was like visiting with your own family. We bought a cookbook that she signed for us. We can't wait to go back and bake again with Emily. Its a must if your in Dublin...

Emily is a wonderfully kind and down to earth host! We booked this experience because I've always had an aversion to baking. She helped me understand nothing has to be complicated. We baked scones and an apple cake. 10/10...highly recommend!
Thank you for the lovely review Tad, I really appreciate it. I hope you enjoyed the rest of your time in Ireland.
Emily is wonderful!! Highly recommend had a blast making scones and having tea!
Thank you so much, I am glad you enjoyed the experience.
Emily is so friendly and welcoming. She is very easy to talk to, which made the experience very enjoyable. We baked delicious scones and an apple cake. We then sat at a table for tea. My adult daughter and I really enjoyed talking with her about Irish language and culture. I would highly recommend this experience when you visit Dublin.
Thank you Tracy. It was lovely to meet you, I'm glad you enjoyed the experience.
This was a fantastic experience! So comfortable and well planned out. I can’t wait to try both recipes at home! Thank you!!
Ah thanks for the lovely review LIsa. I am glad you enjoyed it and it was so nice to meet you. Safe trip home.
What a beautiful experience, Emily is very warm, attentive and she knows her art well to cook delicious scones and apple cakes! Garnished with jams and cream and accompanied by excellent coffee, what a delight. I finally learned to perfect my technique thanks to Emilie. I also thank my host for our very interesting and rewarding conversations about life, Dublin history and shopping tips ☺️ and the icing on the cake, I brought back scones and cake, I highly recommend!
Thank you for the lovely review, I really appreciate it.
We had a delightful time with Emily. She welcomed us warmly and was such a knowledgeable and fun host. The best scones we've ever had!
Took a bit of a while to submit our review. Attended with my adult daughter. What a wonderful time we had in Emily's kitchen! Recipes were simple, great expert tips, and delicious results. Would love to attend another.
Emily was a delight! She was a great host, a fantastic teacher, and a lot of fun. I would HIGHLY recommend this experience. Our whole group had a blast even the non bakers. It was more than just baking. Emily taught us a lot about Ireland and that rounded out the experience nicely. We could not have been happier. It was worth every penny. We took taxis to and from her house which was also easy. There area she lives in is quiet and cute, and doing this class in her home made it even better. 5 stars. Chef’s kiss!
Emily was a delight! Great environment, warm and welcoming and a genuine good laugh. As for the experience itself, my daughter and myself enjoyed every moment. We learnt a few golden nuggets of information that make an attempt to a success. I would strongly recommend anyone looking for a fun cooking experience in the area, to sign up for one of Emily's experience classes.
