A two day, hands-on course, with a light meal served with wine and beer. Day one is Thursday, May 23 from 6:00pm – 9:30pm, and day two is Friday, May 24 from 6:00pm-10:00pm. Class is limited to 12 students. Review our registration and cancellation policies here.

Croissants, danishes, kouign amann, oh my! These buttery, flaky, mouthwatering gems of your local bakery’s case are within your reach as a home baker! To fully delve into lamination, the technique that creates the flaky layers that define these pastries, we invite you to a two day workshop with Jennifer, our resident baking instructor.

On Day One, you will work in teams to learn how to laminate a yeasted dough and allow your dough to rest overnight. Return on Day Two, and transform your doughs into Kouign Amann, a Breton treat with a crunchy caramel crust, Croissants, both classic and filled and Danishes, shaping and filling them to make snails, bear claws and other classic shapes. You will walk out of our classroom with the knowledge and confidence to make these treats out of your own home, and a tummy full of sweet treats as proof!
