February & Valentine’s Day

Ballyknocken letter B

Well January was certainly a fast month for us here at Ballyknocken House & Cookery School!
We were busy with Private parties and Hen parties and delighted to see a full house at our classes.

It’s coming up to Valentine’s Day and what better way to be in the good books than to treat that special someone to a romantic break to Ballyknocken House.
We have fabulous romantic packages at Ballyknocken House including a Mountain Top Picnic with overnight stay and why not take in our Delicious Italy class too! Log onto www.ballyknocken.ie for more info.

Speaking of romance we had a great time at The Bride of the Year show at the RDS. Speaking to all the brides-to-be about our Hen Party & Activity packages. The idea of being able to book Ballyknocken exclusively really appealed to everyone and taking part in Sheep Herding as an activity really turned a few heads!!!!

So as it is Valentine’s Day in a couple of weeks I’d like to share my recipe for Orange Caramel Drip Cake. It is delicious and sinful but totally acceptable for this romantic time of year! Find it in my ‘Recipes’.

I hope you all have a great month and a lovely Valentine’s Day. Keep an eye on both my website and www.ballyknocken.ie for more tips and recipes.
