Valeria is such an amazing teacher and this class completely exceeded my expectations! She was so knowledgeable and taught in a way that catered simultaneously to more and less experienced chefs which was great. The outcome was take home knowledge of creme pâtissier, short crust pastry, choux pastry and filling choux, as well as all the ways you can customize it to add in different flavors or for savory dishes. The food was delicious and enjoyed after the class with friends!

Loved this class. Like that there is a small number of people. The teacher was great, explaining everything clearly with plenty of detail. She created a relaxed atmosphere that encouraged questions. Learned a lot of new skills and picked up some tips that I can use for other recipes.

I recently attended a French patisserie class with Valeria, using a gift voucher I received — and it was an absolute delight! We learned how to make choux pastry, crème pâtissière, and shortcrust pastry from scratch. Valeria was a wonderful teacher: patient, knowledgeable, and full of helpful tips to perfect each technique. The class was hands-on, fun, and left me feeling confident to try these recipes at home. A truly memorable experience — highly recommend!
