Learn to make macaroons

A fun experience for our family. Very hands on in the actual bakery we had a wonderful teacher/ chef who guided us through each step. She was attentive to each in our group. In the end, We all appreciate the effort it takes for all the beautiful pastries we see in the Paris windows.

It was ok.

Haley_R, Jul 2026

Was much more for adults than kids. Our kids got bored so that was disappointing. Chef was very knowledgeable and kind.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Dear Haley, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear that the class didn't meet your children's expectations. While many families have told us their children thoroughly enjoyed and stayed engaged throughout the experience, we understand that every child has different interests and attention spans. We're glad to hear you found the chef knowledgeable and kind, and we truly appreciate your comments as they help us continue improving our experiences for guests of all ages.

We had a great experience! Macarons are tough to make and the class set up made it approachable. We enjoyed being able to go through all of the steps with the instructions on how to perfect the techniques at home. We had an 11 year old and a 16 year old and both were engaged.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

We're thrilled to hear that you and your family had such a great experience. It's wonderful to know the class made the art of making macarons approachable and gave you the confidence to recreate them at home. We're especially glad that both your 11-year-old and 16-year-old were engaged and enjoyed the experience. Thank you for your wonderful review!

We had the best time at the macaron baking class!! It was the perfect thing to do on a hot day in Paris. My daughters (16, 14, and 12) loved it too! Jessita was wonderful and did a great job teaching us and helping with the process. We got to bring home our delicious macarons too! Fun day!
