Class Experience

Learners will prepare and serve four fancy French desserts throughout the week (Monday-Thursday), in this fun four-day camp! We will be exploring French baking staples and creating a yummy dessert every day, along the way! Here is the dessert menu for the week:
Monday: Creme Caramel
Tuesday:  Sweet Palmiers
Wednesday: Raspberry Buttercream Mille Feuille 
Thursday: Lemon Souffles

Please note: Although the class time says 50 minutes, the class lengths will vary depending on the recipe. I also encourage the learners to ask questions and discuss what we are doing, which may also extend the time a little bit more. If your learner has a class following this class, please let me know beforehand! 

Please note: All transfers to another time must be done at least 24 hours before. Please ensure that the class time(s) works with your schedule.

I have been baking for so long! I have made everything from cookies and cupcakes all the way to soufflés and apple tarts tatin. I love watching baking competitions and I’ve always wanted to be in one.
