From Engineering to the Art of French Pastry

Hi, I am Vanessa! My journey started in a very different world working as an IT Engineer in France. While I spent my days solving complex problems, my true sanctuary was always the kitchen. Baking has been my lifelong passion and my favorite way to relax while raising my four children.

When we moved to Australia four years ago, I decided to turn my passion into VLJpastry. My mission? To teach you how to achieve professional results using standard home kitchen equipment. You do not need a high tech lab to bake like a French chef!

Authentic Boutique Workshops at My Studio

I believe the best way to learn is by doing. That is why I host small, intimate groups of 1 to 4 people in my cozy Frenchs Forest kitchen. This ensures you get my full attention and a truly personalized experience.

I do not just do demonstrations; I offer a full hands on experience where you will do everything from A to Z. We always take a break in the middle for a tasting session, allowing us to relax and enjoy the moment de détente together. It is not just a class; it is a connection.

Team Building, Parties and French Immersion

Building on this intimate experience, I also offer boutique Team Building sessions and private events. Baking together is a fantastic way to foster communication and creativity within a team all while having fun! I can host these at my studio or travel to your office or home kitchen for birthdays and corporate gatherings.

For those looking for a cultural twist, I also provide a total French immersion. Having hosted several groups wanting a day in Paris vibe, I can conduct the entire workshop in French. It is a wonderful way to practice the language while whisking a chocolate ganache!

My goal is simple: to give you the skills and the confidence to recreate French magic in your own home.
