We are pleased to inform you about our upcoming classes starting in January 2025.

In our Baking Masterclass, you'll discover something exciting: with just one batter, I was able to create five 6-inch cakes and four 4-inch cakes!

We aim to show you how to keep costs low while maximizing your profits.

You'll be learning from our experienced Cordon Bleu Chef, a four-time Great Taste Award 🏅 star winner, and the only holder of PME qualifications in Wales.

We are here to support you in achieving your baking goals.

To make our classes more accessible, we are now offering sessions on weekends, ensuring that more people can join us.

Additionally, you'll have the opportunity to take home everything you create during the class, along with any extra products you bake to share with your family and friends.

We look forward to welcoming you to our classes!

Our Story

Nichola Ferron owner and head pastry chef at Cake Academy Wales, based in Neath, South Wales is a cake school run by the multi-award winning renowned New York pastry chef Nichola Ferron.

As a classically trained chef from the Arts Institute of Seattle, Nichola brings the culinary expertise that is second to none. Always having a deep interest & skill in the baking aspect of the culinary arts, Nichola, while on maternity leave started a business from home that could combine both her love of baking with her love of art, whilst also affording her the freedom to raise a daughter and started creating bespoke couture wedding cakes.

Having such a talent led Nichola to further her studies and gain the PME Professional Diploma and subsequent Masters Certificate in the discipline. Furthermore, Nichola regularly pushes the boundaries of her discipline and has won numerous awards at internationally recognised events as well as most recently in 2017, a Great Taste Gold Star Award.
