Lovely morning! - Pierre was excellent and very engaging with our children ages 10 and 7. It was a lovely way to spend a few hours in the morning and really gave us an appreciation of the process.

Easy and fun - My daughter and I did Rachel’s baking class. It was easy and fun. Don’t be thrown off on arrival when they don’t know what to do with you. She uses the space inside Chez Manon but it is not put on by the bakery. The class is hosted inside a working bakery that makes everything from scratch. Some Parisian bakeries buy their pastries from a wholesaler because they don’t have space to bake everything on site. You leave with a ton of bread and pastries.

Great experience! - This was such a fun outing! Pierre was an excellent host, very friendly and helpful throughout our baking experience! He gave us a tour through the kitchens as well as many interesting bits of information about their procedures and helped us through the steps of the recipes! The tour was fun, easy and not too long and we even got a free pastry afterwards!

Parisian Baking Experiance Highly Recommended - The experience enabled us to be in the heart of the bakery, working in the same space as the pastry chefs. Our guide explained the different flours, yeasts, and processes. We created baguettes, financiers, and croissants. It was fun, educational, and TASTY!
