Unlock the secrets of mastering the macaron! In this immersive hands-on class in New York, you’ll dive into the art of creating the delicate, crisp shells and creamy fillings that make French macarons so irresistible.
This beginner baking class in NYC will teach you step-by-step how to achieve the perfect macaron shell, practicing the technique of mixing and folding. The classic 'Gerbert' or 'Paris Macaron' is a French meringue-based almond sandwich cookie. The celebrated original tea shop Ladurée on the Champs-Elysees in Paris is given credit for the invention of the classic French-style filled macaroon. However, the cookies themselves are thought to have actually originated in Italy during the Renaissance. Their name comes from the Italian word “maccherone” meaning fine dough.
Together with our classically trained Pastry Chef Instructor, we will demystify the making of these highly sought-after meringue-based sandwich cookies. Our Pastry Chef Instructor will take you through a detailed demonstration before you will be guided step-by-step in replicating the process of meringue mixing, otherwise known as 'macaronage', piping, baking, assembling, and of course, eating!
We will make a luscious French buttercream and explore flavors such as delicate almond and vanilla to more innovative combinations with matcha. This workshop will equip you with the fundamental skills and techniques needed to create these iconic treats in a supportive and relaxed atmosphere.
This class is designed for beginners, so you can have a fun and relaxed time no matter your skill level! Learn how to make macarons and take home some delicious desserts and new skills with this baking class.
