5.00Our bakery experience today was perfect!! David, our guide, was wonderful. He toured us through the bakery, explained everything thoroughly, and let us get right in there and bake in his kitchens. We made croissants, baguettes, and madelines. Everyone in the group got to be involved in the bakery process and the end product was so good! Everyone got to take all the extras home. Such a highlight of our trip!!
Enjoyed the baking...
