This was so much fun! Leticia was a wonderful teacher and obviously a great baker. Her wit and humor made the class a joy. A wonderful way to spend a morning in Paris with yummy treats at the end!
Gain hand-on appreciation of why croissants are so good. Vivi did a wonderful job explaining and guiding our step by step experience in making our own buttery creations. It was an enjoyable morning.
Vivi was fantastic. My wife & I had the best time ever. She was so funny, patient & very insightful. We enjoyed every part of this baking experience. Highlyyyy recommend this if you’re ever in Paris.
Had a wonderful experience! Small group size was ideal for the hands on experience. Vivienne was a wonderful teacher who took time to explain everything as well as provide us with written instructions.
Vivian was wonderful! Fun, energetic and patient haha. We learned a lot about making croissants and pain au chocolate and also pastry baking in general. Would have loved to sign up for another class but unfortunately ran out of time. Next visit :)
Our chef, Leticia was amazing! Her welcoming smile, her love for baking, stories, and guidance made the class fun while educational. She made sure that we understood why we did certain steps in a particular order by explaining the outcome if we didn't follow the sequence. I will remember this class and the techniques I learned for a very long time!
Chef Leticia was great. She was friendly, helpful and answered all our questions. The class was very well organized from start to finish. If you like to bake, it's the perfect class.. Thanks Chef..
Fantastic was to spend a morning in Paris! Laeticia was a phenomenal instructor - clear and direct and also warm and patient. I cannot believe how incredible the pain si chocolat and croissant tasted - I may be ruined from ever eating one that is not straight out of the oven.
Great class- we did every step of the croissant making process except for the waiting during proofing. Our instructor, Vivian was fantastic- knowledgeable, friendly, provided clear instructions/demonstrations and provided ndividual attention every step of the process.
My sister and I had an absolutely amazing experience with our lovely pastry chef Vivian! She explained everything so thoroughly to us and was very patient, polite, super engaged and friendly. We had such a wonderful class and was so impressed with how yummy and professional our crossiants and pain au chocolat pastries came out all thanks to Vivian. We’ve been wanting to learn how to make Crossiants for a long time and this class did not disappoint, especially as we were complete beginners! Whenever we visit Paris again we’d definitely love to come back for another class at Studio Pâtisserie especially with Vivian, 100% recommend, 10/10. Thank you for a wonderful morning Vivian!
Great fun and learnt a lot! Our chef Laetitia was excellent, very professional, fun and friendly and she walked us through every step of the croissant-making process and told us a lot of pastry-history. Can highly recommend!!
We were very lucky to have been taught by Leticia, a very talented and knowledgable Le Cordon Bleu graduate and former pastry chef for a Michelin star restaurant (as she usually teaches the advanced pastry classes. The croissants and pain au chocolat were amazing❤️🥐😋 We really enjoyed her stories about her grandmother who taught her to bake and a brief history of where French pastries and desserts originated….the class was well worth the price and we cannot wait to replicate the recipe at home❣️
Laeticia was a fantastic teacher (speaks English)! Great layout and organization. We made 4 croissants and 4 pain du chocolates. We brought home what we made! It was so much fun
If you are fortunate enough to get this same teacher it will be a must do class. She was not only knowledgeable but she was hands on and very detailed in each step. I am so glad we took this class!
Super fun experience, Stephane is awesome and the crepes were deliciously amazing!! Highly recommend this class!!
Taking the croissant class with Vivi was such a fantastic experience. The class size was nice and small, which meant everyone got personal attention. I came in with absolute zero croissant-making skills, but Vivi was incredibly patient and always ready to jump right in and help whenever needed. I never felt intimidated for a second! To top it off, the croissants turned out amazingly delicious. It was well worth every single minute—I can't recommend Vivi’s class enough!
I was so excited to take this class and it did not disappoint. Our instructor was efficient and kind while being funny at the same time. The class is well organized and keeps moving despite all the steps needed to make a croissant. You also get to go home with eight pastries which is amazing. Highly recommend this class.
Absolutely amazing! Our chef was incredibly talented, a wonderful teacher, patient and helped us all create the most amazing pastries we could. On-site proofer? Oui. 16-layer croissants? Yes. Best tasting pastries ever had? Oui oui!! We had fun and learned so much. Our wonderful host chef even had a myriad of beverages for us to enjoy along with our magnifique creations. I highly recommend!
Amazing fun, please do this if you can. Vivienne was a great teacher. The result also exceeded our expectations and can’t wait to try to make them at home.
Our chef Laeticia was fantastic! She explained techniques well and she was easy to follow. We had so much fun and was one of the highlights of our trip.
Laetecia was a fabulous instructor! There were only 4 of us in class and we had a great time. Very hands on, informative and delicious! Laetecia made sure we were very comfortable with the process so we can make croissants at home. It was a learning workshop and not just an experience. It was certainly one of the highlights of our trip. Highly recommended.
We had so much fun! And the croissants were delicious! Our pastry chef, Vivienne, led a great class. She explained and demonstrated everything. Her side-kick, Leo, was so fun. This class was a true highlight of our trip to Paris, and we've been to Paris multiple times.
Great hands on experience- with Letiticia. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes as you will be standing most of the time.
Really enjoyed the class with Vivian!! She was a great teacher! Learned a lot and had fun!! Croissants tasted so good out of the oven 😀
Vivi made this class so much fun and our treats were delicious. We all had a great time learning about the croissant making process. She made sure we all could easily follow along step by step and everything turned out perfectly. We had so much fun in this hands-on class!
Enjoyed it a lot. Chef knew exactly what she talking about out and helped us get Amazing results. I could repeat the results at home
The instructor was very nice and gave help with technique during the class. However it was pretty fast paced with many steps working backwards. I was hoping the instructions with the recipe provided after the class would be more detailed so that I would be able to make the croissants on my own. Unfortunately they are pretty vague so it will be very difficult to recreate on my own, which was really the whole point in taking the class.
The chef was great & knowledgeable. He gave us good explanations of why it’s better to use certain techniques.
Perfect ,small class size, one on one attention & instruction, hands on technique .Pur Chef was Cordon Bleu trained & kind & excellent communicator. He answered many questions & provided local stores to purchase products needed for baking !
Vivi was a delight! Funny, engaging and knowledgeable. The class was a lot of fun! I would definitely do this again!
Great time and amazing croissants. It was a fun time! I highly recommend it and Vivian was fabulous!
It was a fun and small class, the chef was hilarious. The small group (7) gave us plenty of room to roll and prepare the croissant dough, and to ask plenty of questions. Initially, we prepared the croissants from dough that had already had been prepared. While the croissants were baking, we then prepared the dough for the next class. I felt this was a convenient way for the class to flow. Felt a little rushed at times. Overall, the class was enjoyable and learned a lot about croissant making, ingredients, and technique. I would definitely take another class by this chef!
The Chef and assistant were very knowledgeable and we had a great time making the croissants. They were both very helpful as well when anyone needed assistance. Highly recommend this activity.
It was great. Our chef was so entertaining and knowledgeable and approachable. We loved it!
Amazing experience - great teacher with excellent English. We took SO many notes and learned so much. And we each got to take home 4 croissants and 4 chocolate croissants!
It was a wonderful experience and a great activity we were able to do with our teenage children. Instructor was pleasant and fun! Croissants were yummy!
Chef Leo showed us all parts of making a crossaint. Very ingeniously, these parts fit into 3 hours instead of 3 days, like normal crossaint making takes. Great directions, and we could take our baked goods home!
Excellent class! Incredibly well organized and thorough. Great for beginners and experiences bakers alike! I highly recommend.
This was an amazing experience. Chef Leo is an expert educator and made us all feel less intimidated about the art of French patisserie. Highly recommend this class to all who love butter and pastries.
I’m really into baking and croissants were the only thing I just couldn’t be perfect so I thought I’d go to a lesson to try and find out where I’m going wrong. I must say my expectations were low, as in I had assumed these classes were more aimed that tourists who just wanted to do something different. While it was just like that too (in a good way) I found the whole class really useful. She let me ask loads of detailed questions and knew the answers. And the whole vibe of the class and people were absolutely lovely. If I was in Paris for longer I would have done more classes! I now know where I might have gone wrong so I can’t wait to try and bake them at home.
It wasn’t the fun experience we had hoped for. Very dry and clinical. Croissants at the end were yummy but the 3 hour experience not what I was hoping for l. No intros. No humor. No fun.
Leo was the best!!! Very knowledgeable and funny - can’t wait to come back!
My mom and I loved this class. We do enjoy baking occasionally but never attempted to make croissants. This class was very particular and specific with instructions that make the whole process easy to follow, helping anyone to make great croissants. The teachers were very knowledgeable and made the class fun. The end results were delicious and we went home with 4 croissants and 4 pain au chocolat EACH. Would recommend this class!
was amazing, loved every minute of it. Leo was great, very good english! best croissants you will ever taste.
It was a very nice experience. We had a lot of fun with the family. We learned in a very practical way the art of croissant making and pain au chocolat. The process was delightful and we were really happy with Maria, our top chef.
It was amazing. Chef Leo was outstandingly patient, gave great directions and demonstrations and extremely personable. Good size group and just the right amount of time not too long or short. Any group of people can do it together or by themselves. You don't have to go with anyone. Fun learning. small intimate atmosphere. Price not bad either.
Wonderful experience. Leo is a very patient and helpful instructor. I loved the experience but won’t repeat at home. Hard work! Worth every euro. Easy to find studio, and Leo helped direct my husband to a nearby cafe where he sipped hot chocolate waiting to be invited in for a warm pain au chocolate..
We loved this experience. Clara was our pastry expert and she was awesome. We learned every step of the croissant making process starting with making the dough, rolling and cutting, proofing and baking. We also made some cinnamon and sugar rolls. The class was small and intimate allowing for individual attention if needed. Would recommend this
This was the best instruction I’ve ever received in a baking class! The croissants were the best we had in Paris and the instructor was fun and generous with his knowledge about baking and Paris in general!
We took Chef Leo’s pastry class and absolutely loved it! He made everything so digestible, funny, and enjoyable — and for the first time I felt like making French pastries at home was attainable. Such a fun and inspiring experience. Highly recommend!
