Culinary Chemistry: Out of the Lab and into the Tent

Join us for this special fundraiser event with Dr Josh Smalley — chemist, science communicator and 2023 finalist on The Great British Bake Off — for a talk and Q&A at Science Creates.

From the lab bench to the Bake Off tent, Josh will share his journey as a scientist and baker, how he blends his passions for chemistry and food through science communication, and what it was really like to be a GBBO contestant.

There’ll also be a live demo and dedicated Q&A, so come curious and ready to ask your burning questions — whether chemistry or cake related.

Plus, enjoy a complimentary spread of sweet and savoury treats, generously provided by local baking legends Cakesmiths. Drinks will be available to purchase from the venue bar ahead of the talk.

All profits from this event and any additional donations will support Science Creates Outreach — Science Creates' independent STEM charity, dedicated to immersing young people in hands-on science experiences with the mission to inspire, empower and diversify the next generation of scientists and innovators.
