French Macaron

Description

Be transported to the patisseries of Paris with this classic French Macaron class!

Don your chef aprons, grab your whisks and let's get baking! In this fun and interactive class, you will learn the fine art to making these mouthwatering morsels that are easy enough to be done in your own kitchen!  Together with our classically trained Pastry Chef Instructor, we will demystify the making of these highly sought-after meringue-based sandwich cookies. Our Pastry Chef Instructor will take you through a detailed demonstration, before you will be guided step-by-step in replicating the process of meringue mixing, otherwise known as 'macaronage', piping, baking, assembling and of course, eating! Fillings for your macarons will be provided, such as chocolate ganache, raspberry jam and apricot jam.

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. 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).

Guests will work in small teams throughout the class, sharing ingredients & equipment.  Please arrive 15 minutes early to check in. Drinks are available for purchase from the venue and are NOT included in the ticket price. Outside drinks are not allowed. 21+ only.

Overall, this was a fun class and I had a good time. I do wish that while we were waiting for the macarons to bake there was something for us to do or at least some music playing to entertain us. I thought the macarons were OK, I think during my class they were overbaked so they were more crispy than I expected.

Chef Felix was amazing! He takes the time to check in on the bakers and thoroughly explains the methodology. He also explains why he does things a certain way and how it impacts the final product. I would 100% take a class with him again!!
