When it comes to French pâtisserie, most of us would agree that macarons are in a league of their own. This French macaron class combines technique and precision in creating perfect Italian meringue and French meringue “cookies”, filled with innovative seasonal fillings to give a sweet and delicate result!
In this macaron-making class, you will learn how to prepare from start to finish 4 flavors of macaron to delight your taste buds. You will learn the importance of macaronage and how it will affect the results.
Learn how to match crunchiness and sweetness: you’ll become a true macaron expert!
The Italian Meringue is a more stable method for making delectable macarons and is used by most pastry chefs including Chef Pierre Hermé (you can try out his macarons after joining your class with us in Montmartre at his new location) but we will also teach you how to make macarons using the French meringue method for a complete understanding of the sweet possibilities of macaron crafting.
We can thank an Italian pastry chef (pastry chef to Catherine de Medicis) for bringing over this tasty cookie from Italy to France. But you can love the French for making it what it is today, an irresistible treat for just about any occasion. While we stick to the sweet fillings for our macarons in this class, you can find savory macarons in numerous pastry shops in Paris.
In our 3-hour macaron class, you’ll not only delve into the patissier’s favorite Italian macaron method but also the essential art of crafting French meringue—a fundamental component of macaron mastery, further boosting your pastry-making skills.
Learn how to make classic macarons so that you can feel comfortable recreating and even customizing them in this French macaron class in Paris.
Examples of Macaron flavors:
- Chocolate Macaron
- Raspberry Macaron
- Salted Caramel Macaron
Each season will bring in a 4th flavor of macarons to add to the above-mentioned.
Note: This class is a team effort. Small quantities for each participant are difficult to work with and we want you to get results so it’s all hands in! Don’t worry, you’ll leave with plenty of goodies to take home.
If you are short on time, join us for a 2-hour version of our macaron class with Express Macaron Baking in Paris where you’ll make 2 flavors in 2 hours using just the Italian meringue.
