Macaron Class - 26th October, 10am - 2pm

Master the Art of the Macaron

Step inside our beautifully converted countryside barn and discover the delicate art of French patisserie. Led by our resident expert tutor, Luke, this hands-on masterclass is designed to demystify the famously temperamental macaron in a warm, inspiring, and relaxed setting.

To ensure you receive tailored, personalised guidance and plenty of support and guidance at your workstation, we strictly limit our class sizes. Under Luke’s expert eye, you will unlock the essential secrets, tips, and techniques required to master this elegant treat.

During this immersive experience, you will learn how to:

Build the Perfect Base: Master the precise science of mixing a flawless macaronage to achieve that signature crisp shell and soft, chewy interior.
Colour and Pipe with Confidence: Discover how to work with vibrant colours and hone your technique with professional piping methods to guarantee perfectly uniform "feet."
Craft Decadent Centres: Whip up rich, luxurious ganache fillings that beautifully balance texture and flavour.

Whether you are a novice baker or looking to refine an existing skill, Luke’s step-by-step approach ensures you will leave the barn with a box of your own exquisite creations—and the absolute confidence to replicate them flawlessly in your own kitchen at home.
