This was definitely a fun experience and a highlight of our trip!
Emily was a wonderful host! We made scones and apple cakes with two other couples. It was a great experience and the scones were not as difficult as I had imagined. I look forward to making them at home and adding different flavors. Once finished we sat down for tea and coffee as a group to taste our wares. It was fun to chat with a small group and share everyone’s experiences while in Ireland. Emily was happy to answer all sorts of questions about Ireland in general and share different recipes we were interested in. It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip! I wish I had remembered to take pictures of the food before we ate it, darn it!

Amazing
The best part of our time in Dublin. Emily was an amazing host and baker. We made apple cake and scones. We sat at her dining room table and ate our baked goods with tea. Emily was like visiting with your own family. We bought a cookbook that she signed for us. We can't wait to go back and bake again with Emily. Its a must if your in Dublin...

Baking with Emily!
Emily is a wonderfully kind and down to earth host! We booked this experience because I've always had an aversion to baking. She helped me understand nothing has to be complicated. We baked scones and an apple cake. 10/10...highly recommend!
Response from the operator: Thank you for the lovely review Tad, I really appreciate it. I hope you enjoyed the rest of your time in Ireland.

An enjoyable baking experience in Dublin!
Emily is so friendly and welcoming. She is very easy to talk to, which made the experience very enjoyable. We baked delicious scones and an apple cake. We then sat at a table for tea. My adult daughter and I really enjoyed talking with her about Irish language and culture. I would highly recommend this experience when you visit Dublin.
Response from the operator: Thank you Tracy. It was lovely to meet you, I'm glad you enjoyed the experience.

Why this scores 72
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Irish Baking Class: Granny's Apple Cake, Traditional Scones: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dublin.
How much does Irish Baking Class: Granny's Apple Cake, Traditional Scones cost?
+
Prices start at $109 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Dublin usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Irish Baking Class: Granny's Apple Cake, Traditional Scones take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Dublin is not rushed.
Is Irish Baking Class: Granny's Apple Cake, Traditional Scones worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 33 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Dublin, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Irish Baking Class: Granny's Apple Cake, Traditional Scones?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Irish Baking Class: Granny's Apple Cake, Traditional Scones suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Irish Baking Class: Granny's Apple Cake, Traditional Scones?
+
Around 12 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Dublin can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Dublin and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Irish Baking Class: Granny's Apple Cake, Traditional Scones start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Dublin within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Dublin?
+
On Outty we rank every Dublin experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Dublin to Belfast Titanic Dunluce Castle Giants Causeway Tour, Dublin to Belfast Black Cab: Dunluce Castle and Giant's Causeway, Dublin to Cliffs of Moher, including Wild Atlantic Way and Galway. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Dublin?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Dublin?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
