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 4ย flavors of macaron to delight your taste buds. You will learn the importance of macaronage and how it will affect the results.

The Italian Meringue is a more stable method for making delectable macarons and is used by most pastry chefs including Chef Pierre Hermรฉ (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.

The prices displayed in the calendar are with fees included.

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.

Exceptional macaron class experience Sarah's macaron class was truly phenomenal! She is incredibly thoughtful, supportive, and professional, making it an exceptional learning experience. Sarah tailored the class perfectly to match my skill level, listening and adjusting as needed. Her ability to teach while allowing me to apply what I learned was impressive. Compared to a previous class I took elsewhere, I gained so much more valuable knowledge here. If you're thinking about joining this class, I highly recommend it. I can't wait to practice at home!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at the macaron workshop with Chef Serah! โค๏ธ Serah was incredibly kind, patient, welcoming, and professional. She explained everything so clearly and shared so much knowledge, helpful tips, and professional techniques throughout the workshop. We learned a lot, had so much fun, and of course, made delicious macarons! The workshop was the perfect combination of learning and enjoyment, and we truly felt that we gained valuable skills that we can take home with us. We are extremely happy with the experience and highly recommend this workshop with Serah. It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Paris! ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ทโค๏ธ

My Experience in Chef Sarah's Macarons and Desserts Classes I attended two classes with Chef Sarah, Macarons and Desserts, and thoroughly enjoyed both experiences. Each class was exceptionally well organized, engaging, and enjoyable. Although the recipes involved many detailed steps and professional techniques, Chef Sarah presented everything in a way that felt approachable and stress-free. Her calm guidance, clear explanations, and willingness to help whenever someone encountered a difficulty created a supportive atmosphere where I felt confident trying new techniques without worrying about making mistakes. What I appreciated most was learning how familiar ingredients can be transformed into refined French pastries using professional methods. I discovered techniques that I would never have learned on my own, particularly for creating elegant individual desserts and pastries with better texture, presentation, and keeping quality. The Macarons class was especially eye-opening. Before the class, I assumed that the color of a macaron shell determined its flavor. I learned that the shell itself is essentially neutral and that it is the filling that creates the distinctive taste of each macaron. That completely changed the way I think about macarons. I also liked that the finished macarons were pleasantly sweet without being overly sugary or heavy. Overall, I found both classes educational and inspiring. I appreciated the combination of technical precision, practical instruction, and a relaxed atmosphere that made even sophisticated French pastry techniques feel accessible and enjoyable.

They put a rat under a chef hat on my head! Just kidding. Would definitely recommend. The chefs Christian and Sarah were professional and handled classes with humor and efficiency. We attended the patisserie en familie (11 yo and parent) and the macaron (teen and parent) classes at the same time, and had a great time. Merci beacoup!

Amazing Macaron Class with Sarah! Sarah did an incredible job!! She said she would help us get out of our comfort zone, but won't let us fail and that's exactly what she did!!! We got to make four different types of macarons and they all turned out incredible. It was the perfect blend of science, technique, and fun. I highly recommend taking a class here with Sarah!

Great macarons class with Sarah! I had a wonderful macarons class with Chef Sarah. She is very funny, friendly but also very technical and professional. We got to make lots of different flavors from chocolate, raspberries, salted butter caramel, lemon and mint. Also the shells made with Italian and French meringues turned out really pretty. I enjoyed the class very much and I will definitely sign up for another pastry class in the future with Sarah. Thank you very much!!

Fun with macarons! Chef Sarah was a fabulous instructor and chef. She explained the process and how to correct mistakes and we ended up with fabulous macarons to share with the class and our family. I canโ€™t wait to go home and practice. This is my second class with this school and it was as great now as it was 19 years ago.

Took the 3-hour macron baking class with Chef Sarah and really enjoyed the experience. The class sizes were small enough to be manageable, Chef Sarah made the effort to remember everyone's names and provided extra instruction where needed, and our finished macrons were both beautiful and delicious. Highly recommend the course and the school!!

Love to eat? Learn to make it! I've taken a class here before, and it was so fabulous, I came back and did it again. The same class. I learned even more the second time, because it wasn't so new- and it was as much fun. Chef Sarah is a hoot: skilled, experienced, kind, clear, funny. I left with greater skill, more information, lots of macarons, having had an enjoyable Paris experience. Highly recommend. The next day, I had scheduled ahead for a one-on-one with Chef Christian to learn more about working with chocolate, gain some facility with recipes, fine-tune some of my skills. He was patient with me, showing me how to do things and encouraging me to try my hand, while also helping me to not get chocolate everywhere. (that's one of the things I wanted to learn!) The solo class is expensive, but I felt it was fully worth the cost for the time (four hours) and the experience. And bonus: I had many beautiful and delicious chocolates to take home and share. This is a great place and great crew for taking cooking classes in Paris, both for fun and skill development.

Great macaron class with Chef Sarah! She gave us lots of helpful baking info and tips and did a great job establishing a sense of community and fun among a bunch of people who didn't know each other (kids and adults)! We were actively involved in all parts of the process and I feel really confident about trying to make macarons on my own now. There are a lot of options for classes in Paris, but I'm really glad I chose this one! Highly recommended!
