If you've ever looked at stunning displays of multicoloured macarons and wanted to make them for yourself, this patisserie class in Cambridge is for you! Hosted by experienced baker Corinne at her cosy home kitchen, you'll learn how to make mouthwatering macarons that any patissier would be proud of.
Macarons: beautiful, delicate little morsels that were Marie Antoinette’s favourite indulgence. These little treats look beautiful and can take a vast array of colours and flavours, and this beginner-friendly class puts them well within your reach.
Corinne will share her expertise to help take the mystery out of macaron making, teaching you her fool-proof recipe, and taking you through the steps from French meringue to macaronage, via a variety of delicious fillings and flavour options. Don't worry if you've no previous experience, as you'll have Corinne's full support throughout the class.
At the end of your experience, you'll have picked up a wealth of new baking and patisserie skills, and you'll have a colourful box of your own macarons to take home with you.

  • 5/5 from Yunsy, attended Aug 2026: Such a lovely and wholesome experience! I had so much fun learning how to make macarons, and the class was warm, relaxed and hands-on. I even managed to make them again at home! Highly recommended:)
  • 5/5 from Gemma Evans, attended Aug 2026: Absolutely brilliant course. Corinne is warm and friendly and so knowledgable. I booked the class to attend with my 18 year old daughter for her birthday and we both loved it. We will definitely be back for another class.
  • 5/5 from Sophie, attended Jul 2026: My daughter and I attended a Macaron masterclass and had a wonderful time. Corinne is absolutely lovely and a great teacher and we were given lot’s of useful tips. We learnt a huge amount and went home with a beautiful big box of multi coloured macarons! Thanks very much to Corinne for a super day and a delicious lunch! We would highly recommend her classes.
  • 5/5 from Anna Watson, attended May 2026: Fantastic class and teacher! We made 4 different kinds of macarons, all delicious. The step by step instructions, hint and tips have given me the confidence to try them again at home. The lunch was also fabulous, I’d definitely do another course with Corinne. Merci!
  • 5/5 from Michelle Lay, attended Feb 2026: Was a really lovely day in a relaxed atmosphere - learnt how to make Macaron! Which turned out pretty good for first attempt (good teaching!) Had a lovely lunch provided and met some great people on the class Would recommend 100%
  • 5/5 from Nicola Alsford, attended Feb 2026: Fantastic day, Corinne was a wealth of knowledge, great teacher and so warm and friendly.
  • 5/5 from Chris Jones, attended Oct 2025: Fantastic course and learned so much. This was a special day for us and we enjoyed learning to make macarons. Corrine is welcoming and fun, she provided all materials and a delicious lunch. I would highly recommend.
  • 5/5 from Katya Dziuba, attended Jan 2025: I recently attended a Macaron Masterclass, and I absolutely loved it! The host, Corinne, was fantastic—she walked me through all the essential tips and tricks for making perfect macarons. Even though it was my first time making them, I ended up creating some amazing macaroons! The class also included a lovely lunch with Corinne and her husband, which was such a nice touch. I left with a big box of delicious macarons to take home. It was a wonderful experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in learning how to make these tasty treats!
  • 5/5 from Syrah Simcock-Stow, attended Jul 2024: Me and my mother had recently been to Paris and came back missing the Macarons we had. We wanted to learn how to make them and will definitely be making them again! Corinne was lovely and very welcoming when we arrived to her home. There was only me, my mother and another lovely lady in Corinne's class and throughout the whole experience we learnt a great deal about each other alongside learning about the Macarons. We were able to make two batches of Macaron's which made about 32 shell's in each, and we learnt which part of the process we needed to be cautious about. While we were waiting for the shells to dry and cook we enjoyed a lovely homemade meal by Corinne, followed by a yummy lemon tart (also homemade) which we both took home to eat later in the day. Even though the day was hot we were still able to pipe the ganache, made before hand but we were shown how to add a jam into the ganache, to which we refrigerated to keep the ganache falling out of the macarons. When we left, both me and my mother had big smiles especially because we were able to take two big boxes of macarons home with us. We have got the recipe, provided from Corinne, and will definitely be making many more to come!

My passion for cooking comes from my childhood. I was born on the island of Réunion, a small French colony off the coast of Madagascar. Although my parents moved to France when I was very small, the spirit of the island was very much alive in our home, and especially in our kitchen.
I love introducing a touch of sunshine into my cooking and often add tropical flavours from Réunion to my desserts to give a vibrant twist to the elegant French classics. All the recipes used at Gourmandises Académie are my own, and each one has been developed with time and a lot of love. I’m so happy to have been recognised with three stars in the prestigious Great Taste Awards.
I am excited to share some of these recipes with you and look forward to welcoming you into my home as a student of the Gourmandises Académie.
