What To Expect
Macarons are incredibly popular, pricey and one of the most difficult pastries to master. When I started, it took months of trial and error with the recipe, preparation, baking and temperatures. We limit classes to 10, this ensures our classes highly instructional and completely hands-on.
You begin with learning what a great macaron is and then exactly how to create them from scratch. All the tips and tricks and common pitfalls are discussed. The idea and aim is that you should be able to create beautiful macarons at home!
We create macarons from the 3 basic ingredients (eggs, almond flour, sugar) and discuss how your macaronage (macaron batter) should look when it is ready to be piped.
We move on to how to perfectly pipe your macarons and how they should feel when properly cured and ready for the oven.
We then fill our macarons discussing flavors, others types of fill. In all, about 1.5 to 2 hours of solid, professional instruction.
Macaron Kit available for purchase - includes: Silicone baking mat, piping tip, macaron piping bag, buttercream piping bag and recipe. Once you sign up, message me and I will have a kit ready the day of your class.
