Hi folks, I just wanted to update our schedule, so you can see at a glance our events and classes for the rest of 2025. These can be added to - if you're a company that wants to work with us, we'll happily do more crafter noon teas with you, or a lovely bake and balance event at your venue we travel across the North West - Cheshire, Merseyside, Manchester, Lancashire. . Just ask! If you would like a GIFT VOUCHER for any of our baking workshops or events just ask - we do things all year round, so there is something to choose from. Speak soon, thanks Jen x   Join us for some more bread making fun this autumn and winter.
Would you love to learn to bake real home made bread, without the additives, but the classes are at the wrong time, location or they don't teach what you want?
Room Forty bring all the bread making equipment and know how, to transform your kitchen, or the one in your holiday home (or even caravan!) into a bakery for a morning, afternoon or even an evening; and we have a range of classes we can teach you. We're patient, fun and knowledgeable, and won silver in the world bread awards for our white loaf, and with over 1500 people who have attended our classes (many have done them all!) we know that our methods and recipes really work. Invite your friends and they can take home everything they make, including the recipes and really sound knowledge. PLUS we will make pizza, so you and your guests get a free meal at the end of the class! So confident are we in our teaching methods and recipes, that we actually GUARANTEE our beginners class, so if you can't do it when you get home, we'll help you until you can. At the end of this class you will be able to make your own white bread (to our world bread award winning recipe) a wholemeal loaf, pizza and soda bread. This is a great activity for a mid week holiday break, or even a Christmas activity as we will theme it to the season. Want to see what other classes we do? Have a look on our baking workshop page here Email Jen, [email protected] to make an enquiry for your date.  Treat your dad (or your dad can treat you!) to a lovely afternoon tea in a box on Sunday 15 June.
We're actually including more savoury in this box, to make it a bit more bloke friendly, but it will still have the sweetness that we know they love too. It's all about balance! Inside this years afternoon tea in a box we'll be including.
All for just £20. It is, as always all home made from scratch, so you know it is fresh, and if you want, I can deliver to WARRINGTON postcodes for a small fee. To book please email me, [email protected] with the quantity and any.dietary requirements. Gluten free is available. Orders must close on Thursday 12 June 2025 as I need to bake. Forget the chocolate eggs, we've got scones!   Our Mother's Day afternoon tea delivery service is now taking bookings. I can deliver in Warrington, or you can collect 11-12 on Sunday (I then need to leave to deliver the rest of the boxes). All the cakes are made using real butter, not margerine, and I do not use 'flavourings' or colourings, so you know what you are eating is decadent, but delicious. Inside every individually filled ten inch box you will find. MENU SANDWICHES 3 x dainty finger sandwiches with salad and crisp garnish. The savoury items will not touch the sweet stuff in the box (eugh). SCONES Freshly baked that morning, with quality jam and Roddas clotted cream THREE CAKES 3 individual cakes, which will usually include something chocolatey, a pastry and cake, so there is a variety of choice, but fairly familiar flavours, as I try to appeal to everyone's tastes on these grand occasions. I can cater for vegans and gluten free, and will do so gladly with enough time for the additional preparation and baking. I need to know this by Friday afternoon at the latest. Afternoon tea boxes are £17pp and delivery is around £3 depending on where you are in Warrington. Collection is free from WA1 4QQ. To order please email [email protected] with your name, address, quantity, phone number (for delivery only) and dietary requirements. Then sit back, knowing that the shopping is taken care of, the food will be super fresh, your cakes are being baked for you and all you need to do is unpack the boxes and pop it on a nice plate, with a nice cup of tea. (and if you don't have nice plates we can also sort that out with crockery purchase or hire!) Thank you, Jen x

On Friday 28 June 2024 local baker Jen Perry from Room Forty will be donning her apron to raise funds for the National Brain Appeal, following hearing her friend Gary Skentelbery’s heart rending story about his wife’s fight with early onset Dementia, after being diagnosed at just age 51. Jen’s own stepfather Tony passed away from Dementia in December 2023, so she is well aware of the tragic impact that the disease has on the person, their family members and friends and is keen to help in the fight to find a cure so that other families don’t have to suffer in the future. “I asked Gary to decide on the charity that he would like the funds raised to go to and he has selected the National Brain Appeal, as they specialise in fundraising for rare dementias,” said Jen. Gary added: “I have been overwhelmed with the messages of support from friends and complete strangers and would like to say a big thank you to Jen for her very kind offer to help raise funds and awareness about these terrible conditions which are sadly becoming more common.” The event will be held on National Cream Tea Day, at JD Kitchens in Padgate. Orders for the individually boxed scones with serviette can be placed with Room Forty by Wednesday 26 June, with a few available on the day for people to enjoy in the kitchen showroom with a cup of tea. Order and collect a box of scones for your workplace, for family and friends, or just for yourself. Each scone with clotted cream and jam is priced at only £3.50 with all the profits going to the charity. Jam or cream first? It’s up to you! Orders are now being taken by Jen on 01925 357940 or email hello@roomforty,co.uk So give colleagues, friends and yourself a treat and raise money to support research and support for a fantastic charity at the same time. Jen assures those on a diet that these delicious scones come guilt and calorie free* *Disclaimer – we are not too sure about that but enjoy anyway.
