2.5 hours Location Denver Class size 1 to 10 (public classes), 16 to 30   $65 - $89 ($65 for Public class; $89 for Private class)

Be transported to the whimsical patisseries of Paris as you learn how to create the irresistible classic French Macaron! Don your chef aprons, grab your whisks, and let's get baking!
In this fun and interactive baking class in Denver, you will learn the fine art of making these mouthwatering morsels that are easy enough to be done in your own kitchen! The classic 'Gerbert' or 'Paris Macaron' is a French meringue-based almond sandwich cookie. The celebrated original tea shop Ladurée on the Champs-Elysées in Paris is given credit for the invention of the classic French-style filled macaroon. However, the cookies themselves are thought to have actually originated in Italy during the Renaissance. Their name comes from the Italian word “maccherone” meaning fine dough.
Together with our classically trained Pastry Chef Instructor, we will demystify the making of these highly sought-after meringue-based sandwich cookies. The class will take you through a detailed demonstration before you will be guided step-by-step in replicating the process of meringue mixing, otherwise known as 'macaronage', piping, baking, assembling, and most importantly enjoying! We will also explore different filling variations and what it is about these delicate confections that make them so special.
No experience is required! We provide all the equipment and ingredients, which are easy to find at local markets if you don’t already have them in your home kitchen. Our events are casual and meant to be fun and instructive, not hardcore. This class is designed to be just as fun for the baking enthusiast who wants to be a part of every step as it is for the first-timer who’s happier observing and assisting (or taste-testing). You will work with other students in groups of 2-4. Please arrive 15 minutes early to check-in, especially if you’re part of a large group.
Drinks are available for purchase from the venue and are NOT included in the ticket price. Outside drinks are not allowed. 21+ only.

  • 5/5 from Gg Johnston, attended May 2026: Loved our afternoon with Chef Maria. My granddaughter and I took the class together. She’s 9 and loved it. Lots of personal interaction and guidance. Very fun and I learned a lot.
  • 5/5 from Brittany Young, attended May 2026: This class was very fun! The teacher was fun, informative and very kind. I would definitely take it again!
  • 5/5 from Joan Silvestr, attended Mar 2026: My daughter and I took the French Macroon class and it was an excellent class.! The instructor was friendly, funny and very informative. I would highly recommend this class to anyone wanting to learn how to make these!
  • 5/5 from Alleluyah Williams, attended Mar 2026: the teacher, Maria, was fabulous! i would totally take another one of her classes. she made it so fun and easy to learn. she explained everything perfectly to follow and helped when we did our own batches.
  • 5/5 from Alahna Waters, attended Mar 2026: This class was so much fun to do! I went with a group of friends and we all had a blast making Macaron. The teacher was so sweet and great at giving instructions. She also was very helpful and helped students when they needed help. The recipe was super delicious and easy to recreate at home - the teacher even gave advice for how to improve our macarons for next time.
  • 5/5 from Tayler Re, attended Feb 2026: Absolutely loved this macaron-making class! From start to finish it was equal parts fun, informative, and delicious. Maria was an incredible instructor—she broke everything down in a way that felt approachable (even for first-timers), shared pro tips you don’t get from recipes alone, and patiently answered every question. The class was hands-on, well organized, and full of those “aha!” moments that finally make macarons feel doable at home. Plus, the atmosphere was warm and encouraging—no stress, just learning, laughing, and a little sugar rush. I walked away with beautiful macarons, a solid understanding of the process, and a huge confidence boost. Highly recommend this class to anyone who loves baking, wants to learn a new skill, or just wants a really fun experience. I’d take it again in a heartbeat! ✨
  • 5/5 from Noel Dantzler, attended Feb 2026: This was such a fun class! Chef Maria is energized and full of wisdom so she is an excellent teacher. Macarons are definitely fussy to make, mine didn’t come out as I’d hoped, but I’m excited to keep practicing at home! And they tasted delicious despite how they looked haha. Also the hotel the class is hosted in is really cool and an awesome vibe. I loved the location. Also Chef Maria had pre-thought of everything we’d need and was included in the class, she was so organized! Highly recommend doing this as a couple or with a small group of friends!
  • 5/5 from Jenessa White, attended Feb 2026: We had an excellent time in this class! Maria’s demonstration and tips were exactly what we needed to make perfect macarons. She was delightful and answered any and all questions; we will be looking to take more classes with her in the future!
