The Art of French Pastry

Description

Be transported to Paris' Le Cordon Bleu for an evening of French Pastry!

In this memorable, hands-on class, you will learn the art of French Choux pastry. Choux has the reputation for being difficult, but it’s surprisingly simple! Our Pastry Chef Instructor will take you through a detailed demonstration, before you will be guided step-by-step in replicating how to make the perfect choux dough, piping, baking and filling to create Eclairs and Cream Puffs! Master these easy recipes and you can make many pastries most bakers are scared to try! Before you know it you will have also learnt the basics to Gougères, Churros, French Cruller Donuts and Choux Beignets!

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 cooking 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 15 minutes early to check in, especially if you’re part of a large group.  Guests in the same booking party will sit and work together throughout the class, sharing both ingredients and equipment.  Outside drinks are not allowed.  Drinks are available for purchase from the venue and are NOT included in the ticket price.  21+ only.

I signed up for this class after 3 unsuccessful attempts to make eclairs, so I went to this class thinking it was going to be smaller, more technical, and in an actual kitchen. Although it was not what I expected and the puffs didn’t turn out as I expected, chef Jessica is absolutely AWESOME! I told her about all the issues I had in my previous attempts and she gave me super helpful advice and answer ALL my questions, and I had so many! Overall, I think this was a great and fun class for beginners and people who rarely bake.

Wonderful hands-on class with fellow participants. Chef Jessica explained the steps while demonstrating them. She walked around offering guidance to each station as we completed each major instructions. She explained the possible reasons why the results desired may not have occurred. Overall, I enjoyed the class, the puffs were delicious regardless of their appearance and size. I plan to make them at home. Thank you, Chef Jessica.

Chef Jessica was very patient. She demonstrated how to make the cream puffs before we made with our group. My group consist of 3 ladies who had never taken a cooking class within this company. One of the ladies would celebrate her birthday on Monday. She plans to take the pasta cooking on Monday. Chef Jessica checked our consistency of our batter before we went to the next step. This is easier to make than the French macaron which I took with another chef in this company. I recommend this cooking class since it was so fun to make and Chef Jessica was very organized and thus it was easy to follow her recipe to make the cream puffs.
