  • 5/5 from Carole Chinn, attended Jun 2026: Our teacher Christine was amazing! She had clear instructions, made the class fun and accomodated kids leaving at different times. She also gave the kids time for creativity as there were two pans where they could create their own shapes. The macarons were both beautiful and tasty. What a wonderful Sweet 16 party for my daughter and her friends. Note that even though the kids were old enough to be left alone, since they were still minors, NY Cake required that I be in there. That said, i could wander the shop and sit closer to the door where there was a better wireless connection. I took photos of the various stages of their work.
