Fran's class was great! When we arrived, our tables were already set up with all ingredients and tools needed. She was knowledgeable and good at explaining and demoing each step and encouraging us along the way. The class never dragged on nor felt rushed. And she even had to-go boxes for the macarones we created as well as detailed printed instructions in case we forgot anything. I'd definitely take a class from her again.

This class was wonderful. Fran has an impressive background, having been taught at the Cordon Bleu in France. Her personality was charming. She really engaged us all making it fun, and even tried to engage a teenager who I noticed was less than willing to join in with her arms crossed the whole time as she seemed mad at her dad. It all flowed nicely. Next time I’d like to bring a couple of friends, so we could make them together for gatherings.

Chef Fran was a great instructor who was prepared and helped us make almost perfect macaroons on the first try! We would recommend this with Fran to anyone who enjoys cooking or baking!

Chef Frances truly demystified the art of making macarons and completely removed my fear of attempting them at home! After her class, I have a much deeper appreciation for these delicate treats. The best part about learning something new? You walk away with fresh knowledge and newfound confidence—now I can’t wait to bake my own batches! I highly recommend this class to everyone! What a great way to bond with others while learning a new edible craft!

We had a great time. The pace was good, not too difficult, and we went home with lots of delicious cookies. My 10 year old came as well and had a blast!
