In-person class: French Pastry Workshop: Fun for All Ages (DC)

Learn the art of French pastry in this fun, hands-on baking class

Join Chef Jonathan for a hands-on baking class where you'll explore the fundamentals of classic French choux pastry. Perfect for families, beginners, and baking enthusiasts alike, this approachable class is designed to build confidence while learning techniques you can easily recreate at home. With Chef Jonathan's step-by-step guidance, you'll mix, pipe, bake, and fill light, airy pastries while gaining a deeper understanding of this versatile dough.

What You'll Make:

You'll work through the complete choux pastry process, starting with preparing classic pâte à choux and learning proper piping techniques. From there, you'll shape and bake pastries until they're beautifully puffed and hollow, then explore filling and finishing methods. Cream puffs and éclairs will be the focus.

Perfect for Family Baking Adventures:

Whether you're planning a fun outing with family, a creative date night, or simply want to expand your baking skills together, this class offers a relaxed and rewarding way to dive into French pastry. All tools and ingredients are provided. No experience necessary!

Our classes are casual, approachable, and designed to be fun for everyone—whether you love being involved in every step or prefer to observe, assist, and taste along the way. Your workstation will be fully prepped so you can focus on learning, baking, and enjoying the experience.

Family Participation Guidelines:
