About this Event
Warm your winter heart with this knotty, twisted and wickedly fun workshop! In class, each ticket holder will receive a demo ball of chilled pretzel dough to learn how to portion, roll and twist into pretzels. We’ll make traditional twists, unusual twists, and your creations. Our spring 2026 classes are emphasizing animal shapes like an octopus, a turtle, a snail, or a snake!
The in-class demo will cover:
• How to make spent grain pretzel dough using the Grainbakers method
• How to make hot cheddar cheese pub dip for your pretzels
Each ticket holder will leave class with:
• 4-6 ready-to-eat hot soft pretzels
• Recipe cards for the Grainbakers Soft Pretzels, Grainbakers Hot Cheddar Cheese Dip and our Pretzel Dipping mustard
• A new dough cutter/bench scraper
