Step Inside the Craft of Cornish Pasty Making

Step Inside the Craft of Cornish Pasty Making

Have you ever wanted to master the perfect crimp, learn how to season your filling just right, or discover the ingredients that make a truly great Cornish pasty?

At St Mawes Bakery, you can do exactly that. Proudly crafting pasties in the same place, the same way since 1912, we invite you to step behind the scenes and experience the art of traditional Cornish pasty making for yourself. Led by Patrick, a third generation master baker, alongside his wife Jane, this hands on workshop offers a genuine taste of Cornish heritage.

Your experience begins with a warm welcome and a drink as you learn about the rich history and traditions behind this iconic dish.

Then it is time to get hands on. We provide everything you need to create your own pasty from scratch. You will roll your pastry, prepare your filling, and learn the skill of crimping just like a true Cornish baker.

At the end of the session, you will take your handmade pasty home, along with simple instructions for baking and storage, so you can enjoy the results of your work.

Join us for a warm, friendly, and truly Cornish experience, and discover the craft behind one of Britain’s most beloved foods.
