Your tutor will give you support and feedback, so you know what to do to improve. Photographs will be taken of the completed Fakeaways with your permission.
What will I need?
You will require a pair of none slip shoes or covered shoe and a hair bobble for long hair. A container to take food home in. You may want to bring something to make notes. You will need to let the tutor know on the first session if you have any allergens or intolerances.
