  Amazing experience
My 12-year-old daughter and I took an éclair-making workshop with Sara, and it was such a wonderful experience!

Sara was incredibly patient, warm, and a true professional. The atmosphere throughout the workshop was fun and relaxed, her explanations were clear and easy to follow, and she made us feel like real pastry chefs!

We were honestly amazed by the éclairs we made — they looked beautiful and tasted absolutely incredible. In fact, they were some of the best pastries we had in Paris!

Thank you, Sara, for such a special and memorable experience. We loved every minute of it!

  3 Classes That Were Incredible
Over the past two days I took three classes.: A baguette and brioche class with Christian, and a choux class and croissant class with Sarah. In all three classes, we made multiple types of baked goods. Both Christian and Sarah, we’re extremely talented and knowledgeable and able to teach us the techniques that one must have in order to make these baked goods. But that’s not all… These teachers are also a lot of fun.
I tried writing individual reviews for Christian and Sarah, but this site would not allow that. Therefore, I am combining in one review my experience at the school.
No matter what your level of expertise is in baking these items, you will learn a vast amount and, without question, improve your technique – which is the most important part in successful baking.

  We had a fabulous time at the Eclair and Choux class with Chef Sarah! All the steps were clearly demonstrated, and we got plenty of hands-on experience at every step to feel comfortable making the pastries at home. And we got a delicious to-go bag of pastries we made to take home! Can't recommend this baking class with Chef Sarah enough!!!

 Verified great time! learned a lot
We loved the Eclair class we took with Chef Sarah. I do a lot of baking but still learned so much from this hands-on class that took us through multiple choux delicacies that finished with an all-we-could-eat bonanza.

  Baking eclairs (Chef Christian)
My experience was wonderful! I had a great time and the staff members were all very kind and welcoming. Our chef, Chef Christian, was a great teacher! He walked us through each step carefully, as well as explaining exactly what we were doing and why we were doing it. Our chef also spoke English very well, which was helpful for someone such as myself who is not fluent in French. The results were also surprisingly delicious coming from someone who is not used to baking on an higher level. Overall, this experience was great and I would definitely recommend it as someone who enjoys baking/cooking!

  Tasty Choux Pastry Class
My husband and I took the Choux Pastry class with Chef Sarah. It was great. She made certain everyone got to participate. We made cream puffs, chocolate eclairs, chouquette, gougeres, and craquelin. We got to take lots of yummy treats with us. None of it was difficult and I feel confident in repeating these recipes at home.

  Fabulous pastry-making experience!
We had an absolutely amazing experience at the Eclairs & Choux Pastry Class in Paris! Chef Christian was outstanding—his detailed explanations and professional tips went beyond just following a recipe. He made learning both educational and incredibly fun. The pastries we made turned out fabulous, and it was such a memorable part of our trip. We can’t wait to return and do it again. Fabuleuse! Merci, Chef

  My wife and I took the Choux class with Sarah. The only problem is that you have entirely too much food to take with you! Otherwise it was a fun time and Sarah did an excellent job making it fun while still teaching us about shoes. I mean Choux.
