“We had the most wonderful day baking character macarons in Jesse's lovely kitchen. She was a gracious host and well-organized teacher, plus the kindest human. All six of us were beginners and are so happy with how our macarons turned out. Thank you!”
“Instructor Jesse was so great with explaining and demonstrating the various techniques to make macarons. I enjoyed the written instructions of the do’s and don’ts of how to best bake macarons, and the different flavorings to use. The class size was small so people got individual attention and assistance. Overall it was such a fun experience and look forward to attending future classes.”
“Jesse is a great teacher and a skilled macaron maker! I learned a lot about macaron making and have been experimenting at home with her tips. She even gave us slices of a homemade cake during a small break in class. Lots of fun - recommended for anyone looking to up their macaron game!”
“Jesse’s Character Macaron Making Class was excellent. She provided a thorough explanation of the different types of meringues and how technique, such as over-mixing, can affect the outcome. Jesse also shared the specific ingredients and tools she uses, which was very insightful. During the hands-on portion, she demonstrated the decorating process on one macaron and then guided us as we completed the remaining ones ourselves. She also provided a detailed written guide via email covering everything discussed in class, along with a complete list of tools, making it easy to reference later and purchase anything we may be missing. The class was well-structured, highly informative, and Jesse was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and kind. I would highly recommend this class to anyone interested in learning the art of character macarons.”
“This was my second time baking macarons with Jesse and it was as fun as the first time! She is a wonderful instructor and breaks down the steps of baking macarons so it's easy to understand. If you're looking for a fun weekend activity, this is it!”
“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.”
