Return of the emotive Summer Street Party

After becoming a firm team favourite, this June sees the Social Club host the return of our cherished annual Summer Street Party to celebrate everyone’s hard work in the first 6 months of 2019!  The emotive team took a break to enjoy a delicious team lunch followed by samples of the incredible bakes entered in our Great emotive Bake-Off.  

This year, the Bake-Off saw some highly ambitious delicacies including a Bailey’s Cheesecake, lemon, blueberry and almond teacakes and raspberry coconut chocolate bites. As in previous years, Nick introduced the team to a new vegan bake, this time a sweet potato brownie which was met with interest as the bakes were presented to the judges. Alongside the Judge’s Star Baker, this year we introduced a People’s Star Baker category – with votes cast by the team to choose their favourite bake! 

Our esteemed judges, Silvana, our delightfully delicious resident Mary Berry, and Andy, our devilishly quick-witted (and impeccably dressed) Paul Hollywood, agonisingly deliberated over the bakes, providing some constructive criticism on presentation and flavour before revealing the winners.  Star Baker this year was Aaron with his alcoholic, Bailey’s-infused cheesecake with a coffee mirror glaze and the People’s choice was Claire with her wonderfully Italian amaretti biscuits. Nick’s vegan contribution unfortunately scored few points this time, but he took it all in good humour.  The party was a wonderful way to end the week; a lot of laughter and a lot of cake!
