Another month, another Neff Cooking Masterclass here at Kitchen Design Centre! Last month’s mouth-watering Masterclass was held at our Manchester kitchen showroom, and was just as popular as ever!
Our Neff Cooking Masterclasses are a treat for any enthusiastic cook here in the North West. On the first Thursday of every month, we welcome food-fans to our showrooms, where they can sit back and relax while a Neff professional chef or food economist whips up a range of recipes that are bound to tickle the taste-buds!
Seated among our stunning range of kitchens, foodies were given the chance to watch as a flavoursome range of food was prepared, including Neff’s ever-popular Oat and Sour Cherry cookies, the recipe for which you’ll find below!
Neff’s Oat and Sour Cherry Cookies are invariably one of the most popular recipes at our Masterclasses – and who wouldn’t want to bite into a freshly baked cookie, full of hearty oats and juicy sour cherries?

AS SEEN ON GEORGE CLARKE’S BEAUTIFUL BUILDS: FROM DATED LAYOUT TO DREAM ENTERTAINING SPACE
When Katherine and Andrew purchased their property, they always knew a full renovation would follow.
With both the outdated kitchen and untouched garden requiring significant transformation, the project soon became part of Channel 4’s George Clarke’s Beautiful Builds – it was an opportunity they felt perfectly aligned with their vision for the property.
While searching for a local kitchen specialist, Kitchen Design Centre immediately stood out thanks to its long-standing reputation, glowing customer reviews and welcoming showroom experience.
The brief focused on creating a sleek, contemporary kitchen that would feel open, social and highly functional, while complementing the wider architectural renovation of the home.
The finished design delivers a beautifully balanced space that combines clean lines with luxurious detailing.
One of the standout features is the striking worktop design. The waterfall edge peninsula creates a bold focal point within the room, while the continuation of the material across the side panels introduces a seamless, premium aesthetic.
Functionality was equally important throughout the design process, with carefully considered storage solutions and high-quality appliances helping to simplify everyday living. Among Katherine and Andrew’s favourite additions is the Neff oven, praised for both its versatility and pyrolytic self-cleaning function.
The completed result is a sophisticated contemporary space that completely transforms how the home looks, feels, and functions, perfectly reflecting Katherine and Andrew’s original vision from the moment they moved in.
