Embrace the dessert queen or king in you at Flourish, the baking institute at Hotel Vellara. Their one-day workshops delve into the art of macaron making, fondants, cupcake decor and whatnot.

Love baking and want to nail your next dessert? Flourish, an up and coming baking institute housed at Hotel Vellara on Brigade Road, will help you out! Every month, Flourish hosts a series of workshops aimed at improving the pastry skills of budding bakers in town. The workshops are sprinkled all through the week and each of them are dedicated to a different skill. For the month of July, Flourish has a series of baking and cake decor workshops planned out. In the first week, you can master choux pastry (think eclairs and churros), dive into the world of classic desserts, and finish off with lessons in vegan bakes. In the following days, you can also learn bread making, the basics of fondants, and how to make delightfully chewy macarons. Cupcake decor, cakesicles, and cookies are also part of the jam-packed calendar. The workshops cost INR 2500 onwards and you can give them a call to book your spot.

Apart from conducting classes, Flourish also takes up orders. If you are looking for a cake that looks delicious and tastes even better, this is just the place for you. You can get red velvet cupcakes (INR 60 each) or cake pops. They also have themed cakes for kiddie birthday parties and delicate tiered ones for weddings and engagements. These begin at INR 1500 per kilo.
