'Make a Bake'. A new monthly baking group. Starts 18th August. East Dulwich.


Recommended Posts

Let's start an East Dulwich baking group! Myself and Tash want to start a group that meets monthly to taste each others delicious baked goods whilst enjoying a drink and chat! This is not about competition (or we'd have called the group 'The Great Dulwich Bake Off'!), it's just a relaxed way to try and share ideas with fellow amateur bakers.


I will hold the first one at my house and then hopefully others could host. The premise is simple, bring along something you've baked! For the first one there will be no theme, bring along anything you like. In the following months we might have themes e.g. tarts, biscuits, cakes, bread etc.


It will be held on the third Tuesday of each month starting on 18th August at 7:45/8pm.


Please PM me if you are interested.


Looking forward to meeting fellow bakers:-)

Dear Holly and Tash,


This sounds like a great idea! I'm sure there are lots of keen bakers lurking in ED - especially given the plethora of Kitchen shops on Lordship lane! I'm all for sharing recipes and baking tips = can we persuade others to join?

Fab idea! I'll run the date past the hubby as he'll have to look after the kids but hopefully I can join this first evening. Question, what will we do with all the leftover cake...? As we'd all be bringing one whole cake?

Hope you can make it, let me know if so and I'll PM you the details. I hadn't thought about leftovers! Take it home or to work I guess. And it doesn't have to be cake for baking, it can be pies, biscuits, bread, tarts etc. It would be nice to have variety :-)


Hope to see you on the 18th.

Hello fellow bakers!


The first meeting on 18th August is almost here! Hope you've managed to decide what to bake:-)


If I've forgotten to give anyone my phone number and address please let me know and I'll private message you. We'll meet from 7:30 with a view to start at 8. I'll have tea and coffee but feel free to bring wine etc.


At the first meeting we can discuss future meetings, locations, format etc.


Can't wait to meet you all and taste your baking!

Hello :-)


Thank you so much to everyone who came along tonight for our first session! It was great fun and I think it's fair to say we're all pretty full! I'll post again in the next few days with the plan for the next few sessions, dates, themes etc.


In the meantime if anyone would like to share their recipes from tonight, please do so!


Holly xx

    • The plans The developer Berkeley Homes have submitted a planning application to redevelop the Aylesham Centre close to the junction of Peckham High Street and Rye Lane, containing Morrison’s supermarket, car park, & petrol station, Aylesham shopping arcade and most of that side of Rye Lane between Hanover Park and Peckham High Street. The application is for a mixed housing, retail, leisure and commercial development, in buildings ranging from 5 to 20 storeys. Impact Local people who have studied the detailed plans think that the development would dominate the historic town centre which has evolved since the 18th century, and would ruin the Conservation Area which was awarded in 2011 'to preserve and enhance its character and appearance'. More than 65% of the homes to be built in this unimaginative over-bearing development will be unaffordable by most people who live in Southwark, and provide inadequate open and green space for this part of Peckham. Need for discussion This is such an important issue for south London that it needs wide discussion before the Council Planning Committee takes its decision (not before next Spring). A free on-line talk and discussion to clarify the heritage issues we all need to think about is being held on Monday 11th November 7-8.30pm. All will be welcome. Please register on this link: https://Defend-Peckhams-Heritage-2024.eventbrite.co.uk There are several other key issues raised by the plans which are being examined in the Aylesham Community Action (ACA) campaign. You can find the link to all that and other useful information here: www.linktr.ee/acapeckham The zoom session is being arranged by Peckham Heritage the local group that has grown from the community work alongside the restoration of nine historic buildings in Peckham High Street through the Townscape Heritage Initiative. We hope that EDF members who value local heritage will be able to attend the session to hear and take part in the discussion, and report back to this topic so the discussion can continue.
