FOOD writer, author and Great British Bake Off star, Val Stones will host a baking demonstration and tasting at Brimsmore Gardens in Yeovil.

On Thursday September 19 at 1:30pm, Val will prepare sweet and savoury scones from her book, The Cake Whisperer.

While baking she will chat about her love of baking for her family, friends and colleagues, and how that led to winning the hearts of the nation after appearing on series 7 of the Great British Bake Off.
 
Having always found comfort in baking and gardening, often using homegrown produce in her recipes, Val has gained a large following on social media and uses this profile to encourage people to find the joy in baking for others regardless of expertise and to grow their own, no matter how big their outdoor space may be.

Tickets are £8 each and are available at Brimsmore Gardens in Yeovil or online at www.thegardensgroup.co.uk. Advance booking is essential.

The demonstration will start at 1:30pm in the garden centre and will conclude with a Q&A and tasting, with tea provided by The Apple Tree Restaurant.
