2 hours Class size 1 to 12 guests

$150 (Afterpay available)


Step into the heart of a cherished family tradition with our "Make Your Own Traditional Christmas Pudding Workshop." This special class is more than just a baking session; it's a chance to experience the magic of creating a homemade Christmas pudding, just like we do in my family every year.
For as long as I can remember, my mum, my sisters, and I have gathered for a day of Christmas baking—a day that’s filled with laughter, memories, and the delicious aroma of festive treats. Now, we're inviting you to join us and create your own holiday tradition.
In this hands-on workshop, my mum & my sister will be right there with us, sharing our secret recipe and the time-honoured techniques that make our pudding truly special. You’ll learn the whole process from start to finish, including:
  • Soaking the fruit in advance to let those rich flavours develop.
  • Mixing the pudding by hand (because wooden spoons just can’t compare!),
  • Making three secret wishes as you stir.
  • Cooking the pudding in cloth, just like we do at home, using the very same copper boiler we’ve used for decades.
Every participant will create their own pudding, which will be boiled to perfection in our copper during the workshop. Because the puddings require several hours to cook, they’ll need to hang and dry overnight in our space. You'll be invited to return to our workshop to collect your pudding the following week, just in time to let it mature for Christmas Day.
In the spirit of this family-focused activity, we encourage you to share the experience! Bring a friend or family member along to make a pudding together (limited to two people per pudding), turning this into a moment you’ll both cherish.
Our space is the perfect setting to celebrate the season together, filled with warmth, festive cheer, and a few shared stories. Feel free to bring your favourite Christmas drinks and snacks to enjoy while we create and to make it a true celebration of the festive season.
This workshop is designed to be as much about the joy of gathering as it is about the craft itself. Whether you come with loved ones or join us solo, you’ll be part of a welcoming group that loves to create and celebrate together.
Spaces are limited, so book your spot today and take home a delicious piece of tradition that will be a star of your Christmas feast for years to come!
To ensure we can cater correctly and avoid wastage, we will need to close bookings at least one week in advance.

Knowledge required
Beginner-Friendly, even if you have never cooked before we will make sure you create a pudding you'll be proud to say was "Made By Me" on Christmas Day
 
What you'll get
Everything you need to create your pudding will be provided. You will need to collect your pudding the following week after it has finished cooking and dried. Each pudding should serve approximately 8 people (depending on their appetite)
 
What to bring
In our family, we also include old coins in the mix—this adds a touch of nostalgia and surprise on Christmas Day! While modern currency isn’t suitable for cooking, we encourage you to bring your own OLD coins if you’d like to include this festive tradition (please make sure these coins are safe to cook inside the pudding).

Made by Me Workshop is about helping people to connect with their "inner creative" and have some fun while making beautiful things from quality materials in our friendly & vibrant studio space in the heart of the inner west!
Established in 2017 after Rebecca Doyle decided to take a career break and chose to revisit her childhood love for arts & crafts. Rebecca grew up in a large family where money was tight, after school activities where mostly homegrown and usually involved a sheet of cardboard, a glue stick and some glitter! It is probably no surprise to learn that Rebecca followed a creative path to study Fashion & Textile Design at University!
After a few more decades (than Rebecca will publicly admit to) and a long and varied career in the fashion industry, Rebecca wanted to get back to creating beautiful, one-of-a-kind objects - Made By Me Workshop is the result of where this path led.
Rebecca loves that moment of pride that comes over each participant's face when they look at what they have created and say to themselves "Wow - I made this & I love it!"
Made by Me Workshop run a variety of creative workshops, hen’s parties, private parties and corporate events from their warehouse space in St Peters including Resin Art, Resin Jewellery & Mould Making, Soap Making, Terrazzo Homewares, Punch Needle, Macrame and many more.
