I moved here earlier this year near Knoxville and could never seem to find any chocolate shops that…read moresell melting pieces. I called asking if they sell melting chocolate that doesn't have to be tempered, but high quality. Unlike wilton melts that are synthetic and terrible. I came in and asked if it was "Gazebo Party and Gift" because it was the same address. The girl told me that they had taken over the shop and changed it to a chocolate shop. They had a ton of different gift baskets perfect for Christmas gifts. They had different kinds of melting chocolate, chocolate bars, treats etc. I'm glad I found this place. It was pretty busy. Yes it is pricey, but you get what you pay for.

How amazing that the owner, Jorita Clayton, of this lovely cake-supply shop has continued it's…read morelegacy in downtown Kingsport. As far as I know, it has been downtown for MANY years. Not only is she incredibly helpful, but she is a very sweet & will share any of her extensive knowledge with you. That is probably the best part. When I leave, I have learned something new every time. She offers a range of classes as well. She has kept the shop fully stocked with must-have items for both professional and amateur bakers and treat-makers. You can find things here that you just can't find anywhere else.{+ TONS of disco dusts, pearls dusts, Americolor food colorings, hard-to-find ingredients, and MUCH, much more} And if you can't find it, she will surely order it for you! She also carries a HUGE array of molds and has an amazing selection of Mercken's chocolate. If you are using any store-brand chocolate wafers for candy-making, I urge you to pay Gazebo a visit. I for one, am so grateful that we have this shop in our town, as my cakes and treats are always MUCH better with the amazing supplies I can purchase at Gazebo. Recommended to anyone I know.

It soon became apparent that Emily's love of baking and her many years living in NYC made her the best teacher for this bagel aficionado! From the moment we arrived the entire class was well prepared, organized and meticulously planned. She's a natural teacher who kept the class moving, patiently answering questions while guiding us through the entire bagel making process with plenty of hands on experience. Catherine, who assisted the class, is also an experienced baker who worked tirelessly to help make the class run smoothly and shared her wisdom. We loved every minute of the class; from making the dough to shaping the bagels to boiling to adding toppings to baking and then making our schmears. We had the choice of sesame, poppyseed and everything toppings and I was eager to load them up! We made two schmears: scallion, and honey with chopped pecan cream cheese. It was so satisfying to eat the mouth watering bagels with fixings at the end of class. We were given very detailed and clear instructions to take home with us along with bagels to boil and bake at home. I'm so glad we took this class. I recommend the Asheville Kitchen and look forward to coming back for more foodie adventures. It's a local treasure. Keep up the great work!
