Love Baking?
Me too!
Hey! I'm Maggie,
Mum of 2 crazy kidlets , baker and teacher of all things delicious.
​
Adelaide Bakes was born in 2016 after the birth of my son because I wanted to teach the skills, techniques and recipes that I'd spent the previous 12 years perfecting.
I had no idea I would find my absolute passion in teaching and mentoring bakers!
​
After 4 years of teaching hands on classes to hundreds of students I knew it was time to move online, to reach more amazing bakers, to share my knowledge and skills and impart my passion for the baking industry on those who are just coming in.
​
Adelaide Bakes Academy is where I blend the best recipes, techniques and passion for teaching from my hands on classes with the ability to create the best and most supportive baking community from around the world.
​
My greatest goal is to inspire and encourage bakers of all levels to try new techniques and impact and support those who are in the business of baking to maintain high standards in the industry.
Here's what previous BBF students have to say!
Gloria, Gloriousgoodies
My first two tier cake!
Thank you Maggie, not only for your recipes, but your lessons, videos and guidance!
Belinda
Before BBF I struggled to achieve consistent results.
Your recipes are now my go-to! So many clients rave about their taste!
There are no words to express how much I have learned.
Kez,
My skills have improved 100%,
the Academy and the BBB sessions are amazing and fill in all the questions I've had. The tips and advice Maggie offers are tried and tested
Allison, AllysSweetTreats
The best vanilla cupcakes!I have tried so many but have found it difficult to find one that isn’t dry and/or stale after the first day. Yours are so moist and still fresh for as long as they last before they’re all eaten
Marisa
BBF truly exceeded my expectations
I've tried recipes and methods I never would have tried before
Sharee
