Forget everything you thought you knew about French pastry being intimidating -- this pâte à choux class is here to change your mind, one cream puff at a time! Led by Chef Shereen, this hands-on pastry class in New York City walks you through the magic of pâte à choux, the classic French dough behind light, airy cream puffs and elegant éclairs. You will mix, pipe, bake, fill, and decorate both pastries from scratch, leaving with real skills and a very full stomach.
Here is how to make cream puffs (and éclairs) without the stress: your workstation arrives fully prepped, the pace is relaxed, and there is zero pressure to be perfect. Whether you are an enthusiastic beginner or someone who just wants to finally understand what pastry cream actually is, this class meets you exactly where you are. You will whip up a silky vanilla pastry cream and fresh sweetened whipped cream, then finish your creations with a glossy chocolate glaze -- the kind of detail that makes people think you trained in Paris.
If you are searching for fun things to do in New York City, a genuinely memorable date idea, or a way to finally tackle that cream puffs recipe you have been eyeing, this is your sign. No experience is necessary, and the best pastries in New York City just might turn out to be the ones you made yourself!
