    Amazing class! Instructors were helpful and engaging. Beginner-friendly. Croissants turned out to be delicious and looked just like pastries you’d buy from a cafe. Definitely recommend this class!

    Chef Jen was so funny and a great teacher! We accidentally made a mistake and ended up not being able to make any pan au chocolat and she gave us hers. Sweetest lady ever! Definitely want to take more classes here :)

    Taking this course was one of the most fun and educational experiences ever! The course is designed to concentrate a multiple day project into a few hours in which the students get to participate in every step of the process from creating the dough, doing the turns, and forming the croissants. Chef Makenna and Assistant Paola (super stars) were wonderful in presenting clear instructions, excellent demonstrations and giving individual attention. I brought home 8 super large croissants which were gladly consumed. I can't wait to take another class.
