This was truly one of the highlights of our trip! Chef Christian was absolutely next level and made the entire experience feel so special. We all got to make croissants from scratch, including six different variations, and every single one was incredible. I couldn’t recommend this experience more! The rest of the staff were also amazing and made us feel so welcome. Such a fun, memorable, and delicious treat! 🥐✨

We had a wonderful experience with chef Christian, he was so informative! We had a little extra time so we were able to make a few extra pastries. He was also very funny and kind! His English was excellent! We hope to come back!

Express Croissant Class For my daughter and my second class at Cookin' with Class in Paris, we attended a Saturday morning croissant express class. We learned so much from Christian in five minutes than if we'd read about how to make puff pastry from Julia Child! I'll never buy store-bought again! I highly recommend this cooking school to anyone visiting Paris and wanting to immerse in their cultural cuisine.

This was my second time attending a cooking class here and will probably do it again on my next trip to Paris as well. The first time I did the market class and most recently I did the express croissant class with Christian who is an incredible instructor and has great energy and is extremely knowledgeable. We learned so much and hope to recreate the croissants and pain aux chocolats at home

Best baking class I had a fantastic experience at Cooking with Class Paris. I did the Croissang express class with chef Sarah. It was good on all levels. The food we made was delicious. The instruction was great. And it was extra convenient to be able to have my daughter in the chocolate making class at the same time. Chef Sarah had real experience baking in French Boulanger and it showed. A gem of a place.

We had a fantastic experience with Chef Christian during our family croissant making class. We were lucky to be the only family that happened to book that class on that particular day and time. Chef Christian was wonderful with our daughter, gave great instruction and was very encouraging. Best of all, the croissants and chocolate croissants that we made were absolutely delicious. The class was definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Paris, and we would love to return on a future trip.

Book one of our express baking classes in Paris directly online and take part in one of the best learning experiences you could have during your Paris vacation.

PS Parents, don’t leave your kids out of the fun, we have a kids’ chocolate class that runs on the same dates and starts at the same time (for 2 hours) as the express croissant class. They’ll become little chocolatiers while you’re learning the essential French breakfast pastries.

If you’re craving more practice time and preparations, we suggest joining our regular 3-hour classes. In the 3-hour croissant baking class you’ll learn not only pain au chocolat and croissants but also the kouign amann, pain aux raisin, and French pastry cream. Or our 3-hour Macaron class which will bring you four seasonal fillings for your little bites of heaven, and you’ll learn both the Italian meringue and French meringue for those crunchy shells.
