It all starts with a warm cup of tea or coffee before jumping right into the crafting of your own Buttery Croissant, Pain au Chocolat (or chocolate croissant) and the Pain au Raisin ! Small groups of 8 allow the chef to follow closely how you learn new skills and knowledge.
First, discover the equipment, the ingredients, and the theory behind the making of the croissant. You will be making it from scratch with quality ingredients we selected from our local producers.
Then kneading the predough is where it all begins. You will provide the last ingredient with the rolling pin as you roll out the finished dough from which you will shape your own pastries! Time will do the rest while they rest and bake.
It all ends well with the tasting of what you have baked and the always instructive chat about your trip to Paris. We, as chefs, are very happy to give you our culinary advice, recommendations, and opinions and also learn from you. Don’t forget to take away the leftovers!

The croissant baking class in Paris was fantastic, fun, and absolutely delicious! 🥐 The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and our wonderful instructor made the experience both educational and enjoyable. I learned so much about real French croissants and loved every minute. The only small downside was the plastic apron, which didn’t feel very authentic or eco-friendly. Otherwise, a truly memorable and delightful experience — highly recommended!

My wife loves baking. Usually, my job is to eat. So happy to learn together and know that I can make croissants and pain au chocolat that actually taste pretty good. The instructor was funny and very helpful.

Traveled with my best friend and 2 nieces and Mateo was the most amazing teacher! The class was organized, inviting, informative, and delicious! We worked in a small group of eight learning the art of making croissants. We learned every step, common mistakes, and the skills and techniques necessary in making the perfect croissant, pain au chocolat, and postier. They were so yummy! Too many to eat while there so we took the rest with us! Arrive hungry! Again, we cannot thank Mateo enough for the wonderful experience!
