Intensive Puff Pastry Making Class

Spend a full day immersed in the art of French puff pastry in a professional pastry kitchen.This hands-on intensive is designed for beginners and intermediate bakers who want to go beyond simply following a recipe and really understand how puff pastry works.Throughout the day, you’ll learn two different methods of puff pastry: classic puff pastry and reverse (inverse) puff pastry. You’ll discover the differences between the two techniques, how they are laminated, and how each method can be used to create beautiful French pastries.You’ll make your own puff pastry from scratch, learning how to prepare the dough and butter, laminate, fold, rest, and control temperature to achieve beautiful, even layers.While your own dough is resting, you’ll work with puff pastry prepared in advance so we can make the most of the day and explore a variety of classic French pastries.Together, we’ll create a selection that may include:

• Millefeuille with homemade crème pâtissière
• Apple turnovers
• Palmiers
• Fruit pastries
• Galette des Rois with almond cream

Throughout the day, we’ll cover rolling, shaping, filling, baking, caramelisation, and finishing techniques, as well as understanding why each stage of the process matters.Most importantly, this class isn't just about what you make on the day. You'll use your own dough during the training and take puff pastry you've made yourself home with you, so you can continue practising and recreate what you've learned in your own kitchen.You'll leave with a generous selection of pastries, your own puff pastry dough, and, most importantly, the knowledge and confidence to make both classic and reverse puff pastry again.Learn it here. Make it again at home. This is a full-day, small-group intensive with plenty of hands-on practice and individual guidance.
