Guidekin's take

A macaron class where you run the recipe start to finish, with the chef guiding technique at your side rather than demonstrating from a distance.

Ends with a tasting and honest Paris food advice.

About this tour, from the operator

You will be in control of your creations from start to finish, from the moment you lay eyes on the recipe for the first time to the moment you take your creation out of the oven.
I will be at your side to guide you and to teach you, with full explanations, the techniques you need to guarantee your baking will be a success!

At the end of your experience, we can taste what you have baked and chat about your trip to Paris and I’ll also be happy to give you my culinary advice, recommendations and opinions.
