Fun experience. Recommend I am going to do more cooler classes when I travel. Left with the recipe and the know how to do it on my own.

Such fun learning culinary techniques from Guilliame and Alyssa, and need I mention that of course the end result was the best eclair I have ever eaten? And some extras to take with also!

Chef Morgan taught us how to make eclairs using choux pastry. She gave us the chef secrets to perfect pastry. Her teaching abilities made us feel comfortable as she was engaging in her approach. This was one of the highlights of our trip to Paris. I recommend this activity as it gives you a taste of Paris.

This class was the highlight of our trip! Delphine was a great instructor. We learned so much about French baking in general and received the recipes at the end so we can make them again at home. Not to mention, the eclairs were to die for! Highly recommend.

Morgan was delightful and the class was fun and educational. My three kids loved it. Highly recommend!

This hands on start to finish cookery course on éclairs and chouquettes was universally enjoyed by the whole family. Whilst I am all fingers and thumbs in the kitchen even I found my way through to making delicious pastries under the bubbly and enthusiastic chef's guidance. We all came out with our baked treasures closely guarded in our hands and a huge smile on our faces. Cannot recommend this course highly enough.

Morgan was a great instructor and made the class fun and informative. She was very helpful walking us through the process.

This was a really neat way to experience traditional French pastries - and they were so good!! I am an experienced baker and picked up quite a few tips. There is nothing like French baking! My teenager approved as well! We had fun. You work in pairs so something to think about with the number of your party. You also get the recipes emailed to you after the class as well as a list of personal recommendations around the city from the instructors!

I got lucky and was the only one in the class that day, which means I got my own private baking lesson from the fabulous Manel. She was easy going, wise in her craft, productive, and kind.

Millie was our teacher and she was outstanding. It felt really empowering to learn some of the “secrets” of French baking. It was a fun way to spend the afternoon.
