About this Event
Introduction to French Pastry is a hands-on Bakeshop 101 experience exploring the foundations of classic French baking taught by Chef Emma Dooley, an accomplished HCCC alumni chef. Guests will learn professional techniques behind pâte à choux with traditional fillings, delicate madeleines, rich crème brûlée, and puff pastry through live demonstrations and shaping techniques inspired by classic French patisseries.
Perfect for beginners and pastry lovers alike, this immersive class offers a delicious introduction to the elegance, precision, and artistry behind some of France’s most beloved pastries while learning directly from a talented chef who began her culinary journey at Hudson County Community College.
Guests will also be able to enjoy coffee, tea, and light refreshments throughout the experience while taking home their handcrafted pastries to share with friends and family — or simply enjoy all to themselves.
