I learned so much from Paolina and in the setting of a traditional boulingerie to boot! It’s a truly unique experience to learn and experience the inner workings of a boulingerie while also learning about baking. I highly recommend this experience as it’s not a traditional class where you’re off in a kitchen on your own. Time flew by and I was even able to take a few treats we made with me!

Clara was great! We rolled our own baguettes and made financiers. We also learned about the history of the baguette, financiers and croissant. She really engaged with us and made the whole experience lovely.

it was wonderful having this experience in a small group with just my friends. Our instructor was very knowledgeable, funny, easy to talk to and learn from. The bakery itself was busy and the workers in the back were so nice to let us observe a working bakery!
Response from Host, Jun 2026
We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the small-group setting and that it made the experience feel even more personal and engaging. It’s great that your instructor was able to keep things both fun and informative, and that you also got a glimpse into a real working bakery behind the scenes.

You’re in a working bakery, be flexible and aware of coworkers. Could be longer but you get the experience and a better understanding of the process. The dough is clearly critical.
Response from Host, Jun 2026
It’s great to hear you got a hands-on sense of how the bakery operates and how important teamwork is in keeping everything running smoothly. It sounds like the experience also gave you a better appreciation of how central the dough is to the entire process.

This was such a great experience. It turned out that I was the only person who signed up for the class, so it was a 1:1 baking experience. The class took place in a working bakery, so I had the opportunity to see where they made some amazing pastries.
I was given some history of the baguette and how this particular artisanal bakery made them. I helped form several baguettes and then went downstairs to the other part of the bakery and made financiers from scratch!! Once everything was done, they gave me everything to take home. It was super fun and yummy!!
I would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone. It was also very informative and a great way to spend a few hours on my birthday. 🎉 🎂
Response from Host, May 2026
What an amazing birthday experience! We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed such a unique and personal baking session in an authentic working bakery. It’s wonderful that you were able to learn about the history and techniques behind traditional French baking while getting hands-on experience making baguettes and financiers from scratch.
We’re especially glad the class became such a memorable part of your birthday celebration, and we truly appreciate your recommendation!

We had an amazing time baking with Valentina! Not only did we get to see all the steps of bread baking in a real French bakery, but we got to bake breads, make financiers and roll some croissants. We got to take home everything we baked, too. I highly recommend!

What a fun, educational experience. We learned all that goes into making a baguette, then made them along with financiers, round 'bowls', braided baguettes, and more. Valentina was a great teacher and I left with a lot of breads. They were also very accommodating as I am handicapped. I would highly recommend this class.
Response from Host, Apr 2026

We loved the idea of baking in a real French bakery. We had a wonderful instructor who showed us the basics of baguettes and also taught us how to make Finances, which were delicious! We left with plenty of bread, treats and coffee too.
