Saoirse Ronan, a captivating actress known for her roles in “Atonement” and “Little Women,” has recently delved into the world of cooking. Alongside her co-star Timothée Chalamet, she took a cooking course, focusing on desserts like sticky ginger cake. During a week-long class in Edinburgh, Scotland, they learned various baking techniques and how to prepare a traditional Sunday roast. Saoirse expressed her excitement about the sticky ginger cake they made on the final day of the course, likening it to a classic sticky toffee pudding but baked in a loaf pan. Despite the type of pan used, the dessert turned out delicious. It seems Saoirse’s culinary skills are as impressive as her acting talent!
