Learn the fine art of making mouthwatering morsels in this pastry making class in Long Beach. In this workshop, you can mentally transport yourself to the patisseries of Paris as you learn how to make classic French macarons!
Don your chef aprons, grab your whisks, and let's get baking! In this fun and interactive class, you will learn a macaron recipe that is 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-Elysees 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. You will be guided 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 of course, eating! We will also explore a few flavor profiles and filling variations to make your macarons really stand out from the rest!
No experience is required! We provide all the equipment and ingredients, which are easy to find at local markets if you do not already have them in your home kitchen. Our events are casual and meant to be fun and instructive, not hardcore. You'll be in for a treat with this macaron class! At the end of class, you can celebrate your achievements with a tasty homemade macaron!

  • 5/5 from James Crump, attended Mar 2026: We had a great time, the teacher was very knowledgeable and patient with us.
  • 5/5 from Eric Michael Pearson, attended Nov 2024: This class was a very chill date night for us. Our instructor was super sweet and attentive and made everything a breeze. Vibe was casual and everybody in the group got along. There was about 17 of us. Everyone’s batch came out excellent. Would do it again.
  • 5/5 from Mary Miller, attended Nov 2024: Great class and instructor despite equipment issues which were not her fault. We learned a lot!
  • 3/5 from Anonymized ClassBento customer, attended Nov 2024: I flet there were too many people in the class. Each bowl of ingredients had 3-5 people sharing/taking turns. For the price, I would not take a class here again where I am only minimally particiapting and getting help from 1 instructure trying to juggle too many participants. Also, the class was not held in a kitchen but at a table in a conference room.
  • 2/5 from Anonymized ClassBento customer, attended Nov 2024: I think the class and instructor was nice and fun but not super organized - my group of five have to share one set of equipments where another group of two shares one set of equipment and gets to take home way more macarons. I don’t think the pricing was fair given the distribution
  • 4/5 from Elisabeth Sime, attended Aug 2024: I liked the French macaron class. My teacher Monica was great and did a great job of running the class. However I think for $65, we should only have one partner per bowl of ingredients.
