I had such a wonderful experience attempting French patisserie and it’s crossed a wish on my bucket list. Valeria was so organised, enthusiastic and encouraging that it made the whole afternoon flow . It was also great to meet others from all walks of life and fun to interact with each other. My grandchildren loved eating what I brought home ( it was a Christmas present from them) . Truly recommended and I’d like to thank Valeria for her kindness and hospitality. One satisfied customer!

My daughter and I spent a very fun afternoon at Valeria’s house making shortcrust and choux pastries to create very delicious profiteroles and a fruit tart each. Valeria was really friendly and had lots of advice for baking and we really enjoyed spending the afternoon together to make such tasty treats. I would highly recommend this patisserie course
