An upcoming baking class, to be hosted at River Green Presentation Centre, will donate registration fees to the Canadian Red Cross’s Ukraine Humanitarian Crisis Appeal.

The second in a series of five “Culture Tastic” workshops presented by Trail Appliances will take place this Saturday (March 19) from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Kids and kids at heart are invited to register at EverythingGoesVirtual.com.

“We support the idea that the virtual cooking event allows interaction without limitation on location, age, or race. More importantly, it is a medium to promote culture, understanding, and inclusivity through cooking, similar to the values of Trail Appliances,” says Trail Appliances senior brand manager Cara Kampff. “We appreciate that the event is rallying support for Ukrainians through the Canadian Red Cross’s Ukraine Humanitarian Crisis Appeal.”

The Everything Goes Virtual platform strives to achieve interaction between chefs and participants through live communication. Chefs can review participants’ progress and give live feedback while participants can ask questions “face to face.”

Pastry chef Betty Hung, a Richmond resident and co-owner of Beaucoup Bakery & Café, will instruct the session.

“I started baking at a young age and I’d like to share the experience with aspiring, young bakers,” says Hung. “In between running the bakery, writing a cookbook and a blog, I’d like to give back to the community. This time, it is halfway around the world, but I think every effort counts.” 

The participation fee has been reduced to $38 to reach a wider audience. Participants are also encouraged to organize their own bake sales after the class to continue raising donations and support for Ukraine.

Each participant will receive a box of measured ingredients. Members of the public can also participate by preparing their own ingredients and watching on the website and Facebook Live.
