Welcome to Graham's Bakery School

About us
Fueled by our passion for teaching traditional bread making techniques we have put together a range of Simple Bread Making courses.


Lessons in bread and pastry designed to give the confidence to bake professional quality products at home.

Graham is a fully qualified and award winning traditional baker and he will guide you through making the products featured in our any courses. Our courses have no hidden secrets and the students make the products themselves, from weighing ingredients right through to packing the products at the end. We work the ovens but you do the rest!

refreshments and plenty of nibbles are provided throughout the courses, all ingredients are provided as are aprons.
