The Esper Lane Baking Course
Where every recipe is tried, tested, and made with heart
If you’ve ever wished you could bake cakes that taste as good as they look, you’re in the right place.
We’re Suzanne Esper and Laura Lane, the duo behind Esper Lane Bake School — and we’re so proud to share that we’ve just won our first major baking award at Cake International, the biggest cake show in the world. It’s a huge milestone for us, and a wonderful reminder that passion, care, and consistency really do shine through.
With over 26 years of combined experience in baking, teaching, and creating, we’ve poured everything we know into this course — so you can bake with confidence, explore new flavour combinations, and know that every recipe you follow has been tested, refined, and loved by us.
Each sponge, curd, buttercream, and ganache is designed to taste incredible, hold its structure beautifully, and be perfectly suited for stacked wedding cakes too.
What’s inside
You’ll get everything you need to master delicious, reliable, professional-standard cakes at home:
30+ tried-and-tested cake recipes with mouth-watering variations.
20+ video tutorials showing you how to make jams, curds, buttercreams, and ganaches from scratch.
Flavour pairing masterclasses with over 20 videos guiding you to create your own dreamy combinations.
Lifetime access to every video, recipe PDF, and all future updates.
Private Facebook group for support, encouragement, and shared success stories.
Exclusive student discounts on tools and products we genuinely love and use ourselves.
Your free bonus (worth £50)
You’ll also receive our Digital Cake Calculator, the tool we use to scale recipes up or down with ease. It includes:
a recipe converter (round to square, 4"–14")
a cost calculator
a portion calculator
and the ability to scale from 4-layer to 6-layer cakes, perfect for double barrels.
Your baking journey, for life
Think of this course as your go-to baking companion — a place to return to whenever inspiration strikes, or when you simply want to bake something beautiful and dependable.
And because baking is always better shared, you’ll be welcomed into our warm, supportive online community — a space to connect, ask questions, and celebrate your wins (big and small) together.
With our award-winning recipes, expert guidance, and a whole lot of love, you’ll soon be creating cakes that not only look incredible but taste unforgettable too.
