Finish a 6" Victoria sponge in the classic Luminary crescent style, in our working production bakery in Hackney Downs.

Learn to level, fill and stack sponges, crumb coat, get a smooth buttercream finish, pipe rosettes and shells, and decorate with fresh berries. You'll finish by piping a short message on your cake.
