Last chance to book a baking class with The Bakingtist. The local cooking school will be permanently closing in December 2024.

It's a difficult post, and one I never wanted to have. But, ultimately, The Bakingtist will be closing, in its entirety, December 2024 or sooner.

I have posted my final classes for the year, and I am really hopeful you will come join. I promise to put my whole heart into them, and I really think you will be happy with your decision to come.

I am so lucky that I have gotten to spend so many years pursuing my big ol' dream. Thank you everyone for making it possible. While this is difficult, I truly am looking forward to my next chapter. I am excited to launch back into a career in STEM, and to spend more time with friends, family, and having fun.

Some notes:
-We are very much hoping for a new tenant as soon as possible, so please spread the word of my available space. Because of the nature of a new tenant coming in, I may need to close sooner than anticipated (if a tenant is able to get in quickly).
-If you have a gift certificate or credit, please try to use it with these classes or equipment/supply purchases.
-I plan to have a final bakery garage sale the last weekend of December where I will be liquidating mostly everything. I will have lots of supplies for home and industry bakers and cooks.
