SHOPPERS at a Chipping Sodbury bakery are being invited to help a famous brother get in the festive spirit this weekend.

Customers at Hobbs House are welcome to a free drop-in Christmas workshop for children and adults this Saturday, December 7 (10am-3pm) where there will be an opportunity to decorate gingerbread decorations and help Tom Herbert, one half of the Fabulous Baker Brothers, to decorate and build a gingerbread mansion.

Anyone with any baking related questions are also encouraged to come along and ask an expert while enjoying glass of mulled wine.

The event takes place in the Hobbs House Cookery School, above the bakery and butchery on High Street. Donations for the Yate and Sodbury Foodbank will be taken.
