French Macaron

Be transported to a French Patisserie and learn the art of making classic French Macarons.

In this fun and hands-on class, you’ll learn tips and techniques for making delectable macarons, easy enough to be done in your home kitchen. Together we'll demystify the making of these highly sought-after meringue-based sandwich cookies. You’ll be guided step-by-step through the meringue mixing (macaronage), piping, baking, assembling and of course, the eating! Plus we’ll explore a few yummy flavor and filling variations (raspberry & chocolate). Oh la la!

Macarons are delicate confections made with almond flour; perfect for those who prefer gluten-free or dairy-free treats!

No experience is required! We provide all the equipment and ingredients, which are easy to find at local markets if you don’t already have them in your home kitchen. Our events are casual and meant to be fun and instructive, not hardcore. This class is designed to be just as fun for the baking enthusiast who wants to be a part of every step as it is for the first-timer who’s happier observing and assisting (or taste testing).

Please arrive on time, wearing your mask. Please note that class will be hosted in Chef John's home with ample space to social distance booking parties from one another. Chef John is also maintaining a sanitized space, for your safety, as per CDC guidelines. Guests are invited to BYOB (beer, wine, or champagne).
