Overview

Hone your cooking skills in Paris with a 3-hour dessert-making class. Hosted by a professional chef in a private apartment, this cooking class will teach you to make two or three desserts, some of which are typically French and others that are more global. It’s the perfect experience if you have a penchant for all things sweet!

Numbers are limited to eight people in this small-group class, ensuring you’ll enjoy a more intimate cooking experience.

What Can You Expect?

Over the course of three hours your chef will welcome you into their home and you'll work together to create two or three different desserts (selection varies based on the season, what's available, etc). You'll learn the techniques popular in the French baking world, and how to adapt them to your own kitchen once back home; and your chef will be able to send you the recipes of what you prepare after the class! Discover some tasty French savoir-faire during this fun-filled afternoon in Paris.

In case of delay of more than 20 minutes, access to the class will be refused and no refund will be granted.

One of the best vacation experiences in our entire life. Chef Frederick was terrific. Hands on and educational, not to mention delicious. Highly recommended for any visit to Paris - there is no place better for a baking class!!

Chef Dominic Dury was a wonderful host and welcomed us into his apartment for the day’s lesson (3 hours + a bit more). The class size was 4, which was perfect for the room we were taught in. Anymore than that would have been tight. He taught us 3 desserts that were easily explained and made, which we ate there as they were finished and cooled. There were a few hacks (shortcuts) that I had never heard of as well. I would recommend this class to any baker who enjoys baking as a hobby.

I wasn’t sure what to expect with this class. For the price we paid ($350 for 2), I don’t think it was worth it. We were taught how to make 3 pastries, but we mostly watched. Frederic was an engaging host, but when we arrived there were no introductions or refreshments. We had to ask for water. Overall we ate some delicious dessert, but bring your own bottle of champagne if you want anything to drink!

We enjoyed the intimacy of a real Parisienne apartment and learned some awesome new recipes for novices like us!

I didn’t learn anything and didn’t love the recipes. It was just to follow a recipe and not to learn anything
