“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.”
“Highly recommend doing this class! Jesse created a welcoming, approachable, and cozy environment for learning. She is very organized and prepared. First, she walked us through the basics of macarons, then taught us a Swiss meringue with demos and tips + tricks. We practiced our piping before applying it to the templates she made herself. While the macarons dried and baked, we learned how to make a buttercream filling with multiple flavors. The class was well-paced, with lots of opportunity for teaching, practice, and feedback.
It was easy for any experience level to learn about the basics of making macarons, get comfortable with piping, and create delicious and beautiful macarons. Can't wait to take another class :)”
“We had a great time! Jesse is super detail oriented and it's obvious that a lot of thought and preparation went into how she wanted the experience to be for the students. The instructions were easy to follow yet thorough, setting us up with the skills and knowledge to make macarons successfully at home too.
The small class size (6 people) also allowed for Jesse to come around to each student and show us examples of piping technique, give feedback, help fix any mistakes, etc. She is very knowledgeable and patient- made for a very fun class!”
