Trini Caribbean Christmas Class

Join us for an immersive culinary experience that will transport your taste buds straight to the vibrant islands of Trinidad! In this festive class, you'll learn to create three beloved traditional treats that are staples of Caribbean Christmas celebrations: Black Cake aka Rum Cake, Sweetbread, and Sorrel Punch. Each dish carries rich cultural significance and delightful flavours that embody the spirit of the season.

What You Will Learn

  • Black Cake: Discover the art of making this rich, moist fruitcake, infused with a medley of dried fruits, spices, and a splash of rum. We will guide you through the soaking process, blending techniques, and baking tips to achieve the perfect texture and flavour.
  • Sweetbread: Master the recipe for this soft, sweet, and spiced bread, often enjoyed during the holidays. You will learn how to incorporate coconut, raisins, and a hint of nutmeg, creating a delightful treat that pairs perfectly with a cup of tea or coffee.
  • Sorrel Punch: Experience the refreshing taste of this vibrant drink made from dried sorrel (hibiscus), ginger, and spices. We will teach you how to brew the sorrel, balance the flavors, and serve it chilled for a festive beverage that compliments any holiday feast.
