Who You Calling a Cream Puff?

A savory gougeres sits on a marble surface in front of a light mint bowl of more gougeres.

Ever wonder how to make those tender hollow little cream puff shells? Well, join us to find out in this hands-on class! We'll share the history and teach you the basic techniques of creating sweet and savory pastries from Pâte à Choux (pronounced, pot-a-shoo) dough. You'll make your own Craquelin-topped Cream Puffs, along with our Vanilla Bean Pastry Cream to fill them, and savory cheese Gougères. These recipes will kick your entertaining up several notches.

You'll leave the BAKE! class with our recipes, the knowledge to recreate them at home, and everything you made in class, including cream puffs, pastry cream, and savory gougères.

In-Person: We'll end class with a tasting of what we made and you'll also leave with some great coupons. 

What our guests have to say about this class:

There are so many different uses for this dough. I didn't realize you could make them savory. —Betty L.

This class was so much fun and informative. I can use the knowledge from this class in so many ways. —Patrice M.

I never thought I would feel confident to try these at home, but now it seems doable. All of the baking classes are fun and make things that appear difficult on TV much easier in practice. This has been my favorite course yet. —Anon.
