Flour-dusted counters, warm ovens, and the kind of confidence that follows you home -- this is your invitation to fall in love with French baking! In this hands-on pastry class, you’ll learn how to make French pastries in a relaxed, friendly setting that’s designed to ease nerves and build real skills. You’ll bake alongside your instructor from start to finish, learning the “why” behind every step, whether you’re mastering a classic lemon tart recipe, exploring a crème brûlée recipe, or shaping delicate choux.
Each session focuses on one French favorite -- think sablés, apple tarts, crêpes, or puff pastry treats -- so you can truly understand the techniques and recreate them at home. This isn’t about perfection; it’s about confidence, curiosity, and joy. Small group sizes keep things comfortable, and there’s always time for questions, laughter, and taste-testing.
This mobile bakery class comes to you within 18 miles of Lafayette, making it perfect for cozy gatherings, creative celebrations, or sweet date ideas. Ingredient lists are shared 24 hours in advance so you can arrive ready to bake. If you’ve been craving a warm, welcoming way to learn, this is your sign!

Maison Blandine Wartel
Maison Blandine Wartel

female Women-owned

I’m a French home baker and pastry instructor based in the Bay Area, passionate about making French baking approachable, relaxed, and confidence-building.
I grew up in France with traditional home baking, where pastries were about understanding the basics, using good ingredients, and enjoying the process rather than chasing perfection. Over time, baking became a way for me to slow down, reconnect, and share something meaningful with others.
What I love most is helping people realize that French pastry doesn’t have to be intimidating. With the right guidance and clear explanations, anyone can learn to bake a French classic at home. Teaching allows me to focus not just on recipes, but on technique, gestures, and the “why” behind each step — so participants leave feeling confident and empowered.
Many people are surprised to learn that French pastry is often built on simple principles, repeated with care. That’s what I enjoy sharing in my classes, along with practical tips you won’t always find in cookbooks.
I teach small, hands-on classes in a warm and encouraging atmosphere, adapting to each group’s pace and level. I’m registered as a California Cottage Food Operation (CFO), and I bring the same care and attention to teaching as I do to baking.
If you’re curious about French pastry and enjoy learning by doing, I’d love to welcome you in one of my classes.
