L'atelier des Chefs is a well-known French cooking school with branches across the country, offering classes run by expert pastry chefs to introduce you to the fine art of French desserts.
Meet your chef, take a look at the recipes you’ll be working on (recipes vary by day) and listen to an introduction on the age-old traditions and heritage of French desserts. Then begin making your own perfect pastries, learning handy tips and tricks from your chef and asking any questions you have along the way.
You might make delicate macarons — meringue patties with a delicious cream or ganache filling — or perhaps a sumptuous summer fruit tart with berries. In the ever-popular choux pastry course, master the art of making profiteroles (cream puffs), éclairs, mille-feuilles (similar to Napoléons), tartes Tatins (caramelized fruit tarts) or chocolate soufflés. Sink your teeth into your sweet treats at the end of class.
After two hours of rolling, mixing, baking and tasting, bid adieu to your chef and take the recipes with you to recreate these delicious French treats at home.
Please note: As this is an authentic French cooking school, the class is conducted mostly in French. The chefs will translate the necessary steps into English for non-French speakers.
