“Emily was a delight! She was a great host, a fantastic teacher, and a lot of fun. I would HIGHLY recommend this experience. Our whole group had a blast even the non bakers. It was more than just baking. Emily taught us a lot about Ireland and that rounded out the experience nicely. We could not have been happier. It was worth every penny.
