French Pastry Workshop: Learn to Make an Elegant Fraisier

Light, fresh, and beautifully refined, the fraisier combines soft sponge, silky cream, and fresh strawberries into a dessert that looks as stunning as it tastes.

In this hands-on workshop in Lisbon, you’ll learn the essential techniques to recreate this classic at home, even without professional equipment.

This is a practical, hands-on experience where you’ll make your own fraisiers from scratch.

You’ll learn how to:

• Bake a soft and airy génoise sponge
• Prepare a smooth and stable crème mousseline
• Assemble and decorate a fraisier with a clean, elegant finish

I will guide you step by step, sharing professional tips to help you understand not just how, but why each step matters.

This workshop is designed to give you real pastry skills you can reuse at home.

✔ Small group for personalized guidance
✔ Clear, structured method (no stress, no guesswork)
✔ Focus on technique + confidence
✔ A balance between learning and enjoyment

Whether you're a beginner or already love baking, you’ll leave with new skills and a beautiful result.

Over 2h30, we’ll go through the full process of making a fraisier:

1. Génoise preparation – mixing and baking the sponge
2. Crème mousseline – explanation + hands-on preparation
3. Assembly techniques – layering, positioning strawberries, clean edges

Some elements (like the crème pâtissière base) will be pre-prepared so we can focus on key techniques and make the most of our time together.

I’m a French pastry chef trained in Paris, specialized in classic French pastries techniques.

I previously owned my own French pastry shop in Lisbon, where I had the chance to fully explore traditional French pastry, play with flavors, and introduce locals to both iconic classics and original creations.

Today, I focus on teaching and sharing this craft. Creating these workshops is a real pleasure for me, I love passing on professional techniques, seeing people gain confidence, and watching them enjoy the process of making beautiful pastries themselves.

Whether you’re a beginner or already baking at home, I’ll guide you step by step.
