  Chef Clémence has lots of tips and techniques to share about making macarons, the French method. I enjoyed learning about the science behind the food and explanations in general. I came in knowing next to nothing and left feeling more confident and encouraged to make macarons at home. I recommend this class to all interested in making and eating macarons. A sweet skill to have under your belt.

  The instructor is wonderful and I learned a lot about dairy products. Unfortunately none of my products worked out, even the easy ones like yogurt and creme fraiche. I've been making these at home for years and never had a problem. Well equipped kitchen but terrible acoustics. Maybe my expectations were too high.

  It was a fun class. Very informative and hands on the whole time. Clemence is is not only knowledgeble but humorous and very passionate about bread baking. In the course of the day we made several different kinds of breads, chocolate chip cookies that were the best I have ever had and we made butter from heavy cream that we spread on the bread we baked, stawberry jam and it was fantastic.

  Highly recommend this class. I suck at baking any pastries or desserts. I can rotisserie a chicken, make great steaks but can't do desserts. So, as a part of my resolution this year I set out to fix those problems in my culinary skills or lack thereof. This class will take the intimidation out of making macarons. I loved this class and if you want to learn without having to do any type of trial and errors, TAKE THIS CLASS.

  Chef Clémence is a fantastic instructor. She thoroughly explains the science and history behind the making of cheese as we learn to make it. It felt like I was getting a quick college lesson as well as a cooking lesson. We made butter, crème fraîche, ricotta, goat cheese, burrata and mozzarella in pairs and there was plenty to take home!

All of the cookies we made were delicious and the cake box for taking home extras (there were many!) was very much appreciated! The only down side....we weren't able to take home the salted caramel ice cream!

  Nice, but the instructor worked too fast,this is the first time I bake, the instructor thought everyone has baked thousands times like her already. Too many people in this class, I had to share my work station with other girl, and she wanted to do the way she wanted, she did most of the work. I had not experienced enough for me to learn in this class. Now I still have no idea what happened last night. Last time coursehorse.com also said they will give me $15 off for my next class after I wrote my reviews, but I didn't receive anything. I sent email to customers services. They said they would apply the discount after I register their classes, but so far I didn't receive anything from them. I love taking classes to learn more skill, so I still taking many classes even I have no discount, but it is so fun when course horse offer discounts to their clients and they do not keep their words.

  We found our class very disappointing. The class was advertised to have Pastry Chef Clemence Gossett. We got some guy named John instead, who failed to introduce himself very well. He was a very poor teacher. He would constantly mix up words and was unable to explain things. He even skipped steps in the recipes and failed to add ingredients. The cheese making process was a disaster. He didn't teach anyone how to toss dough even though the class description said we would learn that.
