As the austerity of Lent leads up to the Easter celebrations, we stop stuffing our faces long enough to raise money to help clean up Japan.
Colourful easter eggs to welcome summer
With the approaching celebration of Easter, it’s not suprising that April sees its share of events around chocolate and baking. Sadly, the Bakers’ Market won’t be playing a part in those celebrations.
Though still officially the Winter Farmers’ Market, we’re starting to see a wider selection as Spring rears its head in Vancouver.
Apr 2 – Winter Farmers Market
Apr 9 – Winter Farmers Market
Apr 10 – Food Fight: The Battle for Brunch
Apr 12 – Evening at The BiBo
Apr 14 – Exploring the World of Chocolate
Apr 16 – Winter Farmers Market
Apr 20 – Bake for the Quake
Apr 23 – Winter Farmers Market
Apr 30 – Winter Farmers Market
Never? – Bakers’ Market
Still going strong, you’ll find the Winter Farmers Markets every weekend by Nat Bailey Stadium [map]. Check out this list of market vendors.
Conveniently pre-Easter, this mid-month edition of artisan chocolatier Edward Suter’s chocolate appreciation class will explore the world of chocolate including making a molded chocolate form and decorating it with contrasting chocolate. Maximum 18 people. Held at the Schokolade Cafe (Thursday, April 14, 6–7:30 p.m.), $45 per person. Contact Jane Suter (info@schokoladecafe.com) to reserve.
Food bloggers Melody Fury (GourmetFury.com) and Joy (Gourmeted.com) are organizing a collective bake sale to raise funds for Japan earthquake and tsunami relief. The proceeds will go directly to Doctors without Borders. Find more information about how to Bake for the Quake here, or learn how you can help with sponsorship. Goods will be on sale at the Roundhouse Community Arts & Recreation Centre from 6–8:30 p.m on April 20.
“Yay! The Bakers’ Market,” you cry. Well, no. Sadly, owing to an insufficient number of committed bakers, the Bakers’ Market will not be operating in the foreseeable future. If you have suggestions or would like to get involved, check out www.bakersmarket.com.
