Step into the heart of Bordeaux for a 3-hour immersive pastry class dedicated to the art of the choux pastry. Guests will make the famous chocolate éclairs and choux à la crème, filled with light and airy chantilly cream. This experience takes place in a professional kitchen inside a charming local pastry shop, giving you an authentic behind-the-scenes taste of French pâtisserie culture. This activity is hands on, educational, intimate and open for all ages. This experience is guided by a local self-taught baker with extensive hands-on experience in the food industry and a deep passion for French pastries and gastronomy.

Set in a beautifully restored 17th-century space in the heart of Bordeaux, this workshop offers a rare chance to craft the city’s iconic pastry—the canelé—from scratch. While canelés are sold across the city, including at the famed Baillardran and local favorite La Toque Cuivrée, few places invite you to make them yourself using traditional copper molds. Led entirely in English by native speakers—who are also locals able to translate life in France—this class blends hands-on technique with cultural insight into Bordeaux’s rich culinary heritage. Offering a warm, immersive setting where guests connect with local traditions, ask questions freely, and savor what they’ve made, this experience goes beyond baking. Guests enjoy not only a taste of Bordeaux but an insider’s view into French culture—all in a space designed for comfort, creativity, and connection. Ideal for food enthusiasts and curious travelers alike.
