We had a good night last night. I took a ‘hands on’ making a Halloween themed chocolate orange novelty. The idea came from an AI picture I saw . It was lovely to welcome some new faces and everyone seemed to enjoy it.
It was lovely to see how they all turned out each one different from the next. I think you will agree they all made a great job.
A big Thankyou to Natalie for donating some wonderful raffle ‘ goody bags ‘ We were all delighted with our prizes. Very generous of you Natalie.
Next month we are delighted to welcome Natalie who will be demonstrating
Buttercream flowers .Hope to see you all there
