Superb home-style pastry workshop, supervised by pleasant, competent and caring people and shared with diligent trainees. Tasted on the spot and returned home with a beautiful box for the family. Thanks to all Pascal.

After an afternoon in a small group (7) supervised by a chef and a hostess, all in good spirits but without sacrificing the rigor that pastry-making imposes, after the basic preparations and the making of the choux, the time needed to bake the choux was ideal for a relaxing session over a cup of tea or coffee, enhanced by anecdotes on the history of pastry-making from our hostess. Then came the time to finalize the choux before tasting them, and there was nothing but happiness, Thank you both for a very rewarding experience.

We were warmly welcomed and offered tea/coffee. The workshop took place in a great atmosphere, with very good advice, and the cooking break was used by our host to give us a playful introduction to the history of cabbage. We highly recommend it!

Many thanks to Evelyne for her warm welcome and to Morgann, our pastry chef, for the "Pâtisserie & arts culinaires autour des Petits choux" workshop. We were a small group, and I was delighted with the workshop, which was exactly what I was looking for. Morgann is a great teacher, calm and attentive to our needs. We took it in turns to bake, following Morgann's methodology and correcting us if necessary👍🧑🍳. At the end, we tasted some of our creations (chocolate choux and Paris-Brest) and left with the rest, which we enjoyed as a family at home. I recommend this workshop even if you're a beginner in , you won't be disappointed 😊. Many thanks again!

The choux lesson was really great, I learned a lot of very useful things, thank you Steve, super pastry chef !!!! One small downside, the theoretical part isn't very interesting, a bit but nothing more! No big deal, the main thing is the pastry !!!!
