Spooky Baking: Plant-Based Family Cooking Class

Event - Spooky Baking: Plant-Based Family Cooking Class

The Event

Family Spooky Baking Class – Plant-Based Fun!
Join Made In Hackney for a plant-based baking class where you can create spooky-themed bakes with your kids. This session is all about learning delicious new recipes, getting creative in the kitchen, and enjoying quality family time — all while keeping it 100% plant-based.

About Pay What You Can Tickets

At Made In Hackney, we love bringing people together through plant-based cooking. For over a decade, we’ve offered free community cooking classes open to all. But with 1 in 3 households in Hackney experiencing food poverty and demand growing, we’ve introduced a Pay What You Can model to ensure no one is excluded.

If you’re able to give a little more, your generosity directly funds ingredients, classes and resources for families who might otherwise miss out. This approach helps us reach more people, run more classes and make the best use of our limited resources — while keeping our classes inclusive and welcoming.

Importantly, we’ll continue to run free community classes alongside this model. This is a trial, so if you have any questions or suggestions, please contact us at classes@madeinhackney.org.

PLEASE NOTE: This class is for families only. Adults must come with children and children need to be supervised by their accompanying adults.

• Each donation covers 1 adult + 1–2 children.
• If you’d like to bring more than 1 adult or more than 2 children, please make a second donation.

Suggested contributions per place

• £10 – Minimum donation (1 adult + 1–2 children)
• £20 – Partial contribution
• £30 – Covers the full cost
• £40 – Pays it forward for another family

If you cannot afford the minimum donation but would still like to attend, please email classes@madeinhackney.org. We will try our best to ensure that no one is turned away for lack of funds.
