5 Foodie Hen Parties

5 Foodie Hen Party Ideas

A girl's gotta eat! There are some fantastic foodie hen parties out there right now. Ditch the diet and indulge. Learn how to make everything from cupcakes and whoopee pies to sushi and authentic Indian dishes. Get some ideas for the wedding breakfast or just enjoy making and scoffing your favourites.

Here are 5 of our fave foodie hen parties.

SUSHI MAKING HEN PARTY IDEAS

Sushi making requires true skill and a steady hand! This London-based workshop is fascinating stuff and definitely ticks the 'something different' box. In Japan, it takes around 15 years to become a fully qualified sushi chef. You'll be able to whip up a classic California roll in 2 hours.

A sushi chef will show you how to prepare, pack 'n roll 4 different types of sushi. Learn all about cooking Japanese rice, cutting fish and preparing nori (that's edible seaweed to the sushi virgin!). Become sushi masters and eat the rolls you prepare for lunch.

CHOCOLATE WORKSHOP HEN DO IDEAS

The most popular of all foodie hen parties, a chocolate workshop is a no-brainer. Get the girls together and learn how to make a box of 25 Belgian choccies to take home and share (yeah right!) or scoff on the spot.

Chocolate workshops last for around 2 hours. A master chocolatier will show you how to create different truffle fillings, dip them in molten Belgian chocolate and design your own toppings. When they've set, make 'em pretty, box 'em up and finish with ribbon. Voila!

You can have a chocolate making hen party activity pretty much anywhere in the UK, including: Birmingham, Bournemouth, Bristol, Cardiff, Edinburgh, Leeds, London, Manchester, Newcastle and Nottingham.

CUPCAKE WORKSHOP HEN PARTY ACTIVITY

This is a great choice if you're looking for foodie hen parties that also provide inspiration for the wedding. There's a huge trend for homemade wedding cakes and the cupcake tower is fast becoming a modern classic. If you fancy having a bash at making your own wedding cake, a cupcake workshop in Bournemouth is a smart move.

During a 2-hour workshop led by a cupcake queen, you'll learn how to make, bake, decorate and package 6 cupcakes. Everyone in the group will get a cupcake starter kit with nozzles, moulds, an icing bag, sprinkles and toppers as a memento of the experience.

PIZZA MAKING HEN PARTY IDEAS

You'll never fancy a frozen margarita again after a pizza making hen party in Nottingham. Under the watchful eye of professional pizzaiolos, you'll learn how to whip up authentic, stone-baked pizzas with mozzarella and 5 different toppings.

It's worth it for the dough-tossing section alone, which is guaranteed to produce some classic photos. Make your own pizza and eat it for lunch with a complimentary starter and drink thrown in. What's not to love?

INDIAN COOKERY LESSON HEN DO IDEAS

Planning a Blackpool hen party for a foodie? If the bride loves bhajis and bhuna, try an Indian cookery lesson. During the course of a 2-hour workshop, you'll learn how to make 2 starters, 2 main courses and 2 side dishes. When you've cooked up a storm, sit down in the Indian restaurant and sample the goods!
