This class was a great family activity with my 11 and 9 year old. Jesse is patient and so sweet. My kids shared all the macarons with their friends who all loved the cat macarons. I definitly recomend.

My friend and I went to the workshop to spend some fun time together. We both love baking and have a sweet tooth, so the class was a perfect fit for us The workshop took place in a small group and in a beautiful setting, which allowed the teacher to give us individual attention. Even though some of us had no baking experience whatsoever, she managed to explain everything at a very understandable pace. At the end of the day, everyone went home with 12 beautifully designed macarons (using her own designs). We didn’t have to make the mixture all by ourselves—it was a group effort, which I actually loved, because piping the macarons was already quite a bit of work. Everything was great! The only thing I didn’t like was that the mixture we used for our first piping practice was thrown away. In my opinion, it could have been baked instead of discarded. Other than that, I highly recommend the workshop to anyone who’s into sweets, baking, or simply wants to learn something new. Unfortunately I wasn't able to add some pictures to do technical issues.

The class was great! It was a lot of fun and the teacher shared all the tips and techniques. She is clear and kind and helps us fix our mistakes as well. And in the end we get to make beautiful and yummy macarons!!

Jesse was a patient and motivating instructor. The idea of making macarons was always intimidating. However Jesse made my first macaron experience fun and manageable. Not only did I make macarons, I made fun and adorable shapes! The class was a great way to spend a Saturday morning! My only regret is I didn't bring my daughter!

Jesse explained difficult macaron techniques in such an easy way, and I loved learning how to make the super cute designs too! I’ll definitely join your other classes!

I took the “Cats & Flowers” macaron-making class with Jesse this past Saturday in San Francisco and had such a wonderful experience! The class was thoughtfully streamlined -- ingredients were pre-measured and sifted for us, which saved time and allowed us to focus on the techniques that really matter. I especially appreciated the opportunity to practice piping with macaron batter before jumping into our actual designs. Jesse also gave a super helpful overview of the differences between French, Swiss, and Italian meringue -- something I’ve struggled with before, so it was great to revisit with such clarity. As our macarons were drying, Jesse treated us to the most delicious strawberry macarons alongside a rich dark chocolate-flavored cold brew. Such a delightful touch! Every detail of the class felt intentional and cozy, from the house slippers she provided to the custom boxes for storing our finished creations. Jesse’s warmth and attention to detail made this class not only fun but truly confidence-boosting. I’m walking away feeling like I might finally be able to tackle macarons on my own! Highly recommend this experience!

This was a fun and informative class. I enjoyed learning about how macarons are made, tips and tricks for perfecting the technique, and getting to express my creativity. Our teacher was very welcoming and hospitable. I learned a lot and had a great time. I highly recommend this class.
