Always dreamt of learning how to make delicious chou buns at home? Impress your friends and family with éclairs? Join this online class to learn chou pastry from scratch or improve your chef's skills.
We'll start the class with a quick intro to modern French pastry, as well as understanding the recipe, techniques and seasonal ingredients choice. Then comes the baking: chou dough, craquelin, and crème pâtissière with a seasonal flavour. I will be available to guide each of the participants as we go through the recipe's different steps.
My name is Marie, I hold the french national Certificate of Pastry Baking (CAP Pâtisserie) and have trained at Shangri-la hotel in Paris as well as other bakeries. I would love to share what I have learnt with you.
This is an online class - it is ideally crafted for you to master the use of your own oven, and make sure you succeed when reproducing it on your own, in the familiar surroundings of your kitchen.
If you want to learn with me in person, please select the other listing for a class in my Kentish Town home kitchen.
Please note:
Public dates for this class require at least 2 guests to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we'll cancel the class;
in this case we'll inform you and allow you to get a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.
This class is beginner-friendly.
 
A kitchen scale and a zip-lock bag will be needed for this class, other than regular kitchen appliances (oven, hob...). For the rest, you can work around what you have at home and we'll provide easy swaps for utensils you might not have.
For ingredients, we will send you a shopping list a few days before the class starts.
