Recent reviews of Classic French Macarons Class
- 3/5 from Pamela Kasel, attended Dec 2024: we were hoping to walk away with delicious cookies, ours were hollow and seemed to be over cooked? The teacher was so nice but the class was too big, I think an assistant would have been so helpful, we were taking a baking class but weren’t in the kitchen, she was running back and forth. Also, we were seated and couldn’t see anything she was doing, it might be helpful to let the class gather round her while she’s mixing. I don’t think either make the class smaller, add an assistant, or make the class longer or all three? And use a large.professional kitchen.
- 2/5 from Uyen Huffstutter, attended Dec 2024: Class was much too large (26 students) for one instructor. Because of this, there was limited attention to students overall. I thought we’d be in a kitchen, turns out it was groups of 4 per table in the dining room of the hotel. It was difficult for everyone to see what she was doing at the head table because we weren’t gathering around to observe. Some key instructions were left out such as egg white should be room temperature and if you get egg yolk in your egg whites, it will prevent stiff peaks when beating. I took the class so I could get a better gauge about the macronage phase. My group asked our instructor to look at our batter consistency to make sure we got it right. Unfortunately, the macarons turned out hollow. It would be a lot better if they downsize the class.
