Get ready to channel your inner pâtissier in this special French baking workshop led by Chef Melissa Walnock. Unlike our traditional pastry classes—which are strictly bake-and-take, this experience combines the best of both worlds: you’ll enjoy some items fresh from the kitchen and take beautifully crafted pastries home to share (or keep for yourself… we won’t tell).

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll make three classic French treats:
🥞 Crêpes — Eat In Class
Perfect your crêpe technique and enjoy them warm with a variety of fillings and toppings.
🍮 Soufflé — Eat In Class
Learn the secrets behind achieving an airy, beautifully risen soufflé. You’ll savor this delicate dessert right away—because soufflés don’t wait!
🍰 Napoleon — Take Home
Build crisp layers of puff pastry and silky pastry cream, then assemble your own elegant Napoleon to take home.

This hands-on class is perfect for baking enthusiasts of all levels who want to build confidence with French techniques in a relaxed, small-group setting at Watergrasshill B&B.
*Please note: we do our best to accommodate dietary restrictions with advance notice; however, due to the nature of our cooking classes, we may not be able to accommodate all needs.
We are offering this workshop on Monday, January 19th and Tuesday, January 20th. Please be sure to register for the correct date as your tickets are only valid for that day.
