“An international community of bakers is forming. We’ve had students from across the globe in our first virtual classes – home bakers are tuning in everywhere from Israel and India to Germany and New Zealand,” said Sara Molinaro, principal and lead instructor of BAKE!, in a release.

“As much as we’ll always love our in-person classes, it’s been so fun to instruct and encourage our students virtually.”

BAKE! has been offering hands-on baking and cooking classes for 15 years. Virtual classes are intended for the whole household so that everyone can participate.

Classes range from french baguettes and Black Forest Torte to BAKE!’s popular “Fancy Schmancy Holiday Cookie” class.
