What you’ll do

In this 2.5-hour class, you’ll step into a cozy kitchen to make two desserts with a mamie—your French grandma for the day. She’ll share her secrets for the perfect tarte Tatin and light, lemon-kissed madeleines. As you enjoy your sweets, she’ll also offer her unique perspective of the city. Paris may be the capital of French haute cuisine, but mamies are the true guardians of France’s culinary heritage. Wouldn’t you rather learn to bake from someone who’s been perfecting recipes for decades?
This experience is hosted in English, Spanish, French, and Italian.

About me

I grew up in my grandmother's kitchen watching her cook, and these moments later made me realize that traditional pastry techniques were quickly disappearing. To preserve these traditions, I brought together the grandmothers of our Parisian community to share culture through pastry. Our grandmothers have since been featured in the New York Times.
