NEW! All natural decorating - Masterclasses
What to Expect:
Classes last two hours and will be held on Saturdays at 3pm at Cutter & Squidge’s new Royal Exchange store in the heart of the City of London.
On arrival, guests will be greeted with some tasty treats and a Bellini or two (or a coffee or tea) and kitted out with an apron.
Classes are for up to eight people
Each class will focus on a different cake from the Cutter & Squidge Dream Cake Collection
Classes are hands on. There’ll be plenty of opportunities to get messy, eat frosting, and everyone will get to work at their own station complete with all the kit needed.
Throughout the class, participants will be able to take pictures and can even take a picture of their finished cake on a stand in the shop window display!
At the end, Cutter & Squidge will carefully box the cakes for participants to take home and enjoy.

STAFF SPOTLIGHT
😍 What do you love the most about C&S? 😍
K - Very friendly and kind staff, feels like family working here. I get the chance to practice my English as there is no other members that speak Japanese in store and I get to learn about English culture with things like afternoon tea.
S - I enjoy working here because the team is fun and even if sometimes I am having a bad day, I know that I have someone to talk to and laugh with at work.
😋 What is your favourite product? 😋
K - Caramel crunch pie is definitely my favourite!
S - I really love the cookie dough brownie!

Magical Marshmallow Hot Chocolates
We can't think of a better way to end Christmas Eve, than putting out treats for Santa and then snuggling up with a cosy hot chocolate before getting tucked into bed. Choose from our three flavours of fun, yummy, hot chocolate spoons: White Chocolate with Raspberries, Milk and White Chocolate, or Dark Chocolate with Marshmallows!
Parents, just heat up some milk and then let them (with your guidance) stir in their hot chocolate spoon until it melts! Then top with a chunky wedge of our veggie-friendly marshmallow! Again, spoiled with the flavours - choose from Toasted Coconut, Salted Caramel or regular Toasted!
Some ideas: How about a White Choc Raspberry Hot Chocolate with Coconut Marshmallow? Or Luscious Dark Hot Choc with extra Toasted Marshmallow, or divine Milk Hot Chocolate with White Chocolate Flakes topped with a sweet Salted Caramel Marshmallow.
Marshmallows - £4.50 (for a box)
Hot Choc Spoons - £3.50 per spoon

At Home: How to Make a Perfect Lychee Rose Latte
As the chill of winter draws in, we turn to snuggly blankets, cosy jumpers and delicious hot drinks. I don't know about you, but I love the festive season and the chance to unwind and take some time to myself.
In our Soho store, we have a selection of rainbow lattes made from all natural ingredients to keep you pumped during the shorter, dark days, with a favourite being the bright, sweet Lychee Rose Latte.
We thought it was so popular, it would be fun to make our lattes into a gift set, to allow you to make it at home, and also to gift to friends!
Starting with the Lychee Rose, this is a perfect gift for friends who love their superfoods, or even as a Secret Santa present as it is under a tenner.
In this post, we will take you through how to make the perfect Lychee Rose Latte. This easy, DIY kit is just six, simple steps. It can be used with any milks (making it a great gift for your vegan friend!) and each kit makes 6 lattes. Yum!
TASTE: Floral, Earthy Undertones, Fruity
STEP 1
STEEP THE TEA - add a tablespoon of tea inside the tea infuser ball and steep in boiling hot water for 2 - 3 minutes. The tea is a special Cutter & Squidge blend!
STEP 2
ADD A TEASPOON of the pink powder and stir. The pink powder is made from beetroot to give your latte that wonderful pink hue.
STEP 3
FROTH 100ml of your favourite milk, we love oat and coconut milk best!
STEP 4
POUR MILK on the brewed lychee tea.
STEP 5
SPRINKLE the latte with rose petals + raspberries.
STEP 6
ENJOY your uniquely fragrant, all natural lychee rose latte.
