About this tour
Learn French pastry techniques from a working chef in their Paris home over three hours. You'll mix, fold and bake alongside your instructor, crafting classic French desserts from scratch. This is a genuine kitchen apprenticeship—not a performance—where you work with real ingredients and techniques, then taste what you've made. Ideal for groups and families wanting to understand the precision behind French pastry.

What to expect
Arrive at the chef's home kitchen and roll up your sleeves. You'll spend the session actively baking—measuring, mixing, folding—under direct guidance. The chef demonstrates techniques, then you replicate them with their feedback. Expect flour on your hands and honest corrections; this isn't theatrical cooking. By the end, your baked goods are ready to eat, and you'll understand why French pastry demands precision. Bring an apron or wear something you don't mind getting messy.
