Recent reviews of Challah Bread Making Class
- 5/5 from Sarah Balogh, attended Jun 2026: Christine was great and we enjoyed the class!
- 5/5 from Rose Porter, attended Apr 2026: Great experience! Had a great time with the teacher and got to take home so much bread G the end of the class!
- 5/5 from Jenique Klinkerth, attended Mar 2026: This was truly such a fun and memorable experience! I gifted it to my husband as a Valentine’s Day present, and also to encourage his interest in baking—and it turned out to be both fun and therapeutic. I was only expecting us to make one loaf per person, but we actually made three different styles of challah each! Our instructor, Kavina, was incredibly sweet, informative, and patient when answering questions. She guided us through the entire process, and the bread at the end was so fresh and delicious. My husband and I can’t wait to come back again!
- 5/5 from Jen Cullen, attended Mar 2026: As someone who does NOT bake, this class was SO FUN. We got to bring home 4 loaves! Everything was super easy to follow, clear and concise and I couldn’t recommend it more.
- 5/5 from Randi Feinberg, attended Jul 2025: Such an easy good time
