Baking and Pastry

Do your cakes come out looking funny?  Do your cookies look like you could slide them under a door?  There is nothing funny about spending all that time and effort to settle for inferior results.  We can bake some simple cakes, make frosting and learn the tricks of the trade from a professional!  You can design the content of this class to "fill in the blanks" of your existing knowledge.

With enough advance notice, we can concentrate on French breads and pastries or whatever you would like to learn!  We'll cover desserts, frostings, icings and simple things, too.  Like Tarts and quick, decadent Napoleons.  Imagine, being able to produce perfect croissants from your own oven!

We'll cover the basics, some advanced principles and a little French, too.  From artisanal breads to light and airy French Baguettes.  We'll make some doughs from scratch and proofed items will be available for demonstration.  You'll be taking home some (most) of the items we make.

We'll cook a few little things to test our skills on, so it is best that the class starts around 3:00 p.m. if possible, but later start times can usually work as well.  Let me know (on the next form) if you are allergic to or dislike certain foods and we can avoid those.
