This is a fun, informative session. We got lots of tips on how to make the perfect macaron. Our patisserie chef was so helpful had a great sense of humour. I would highly recommend the experience.

Absolutely fun and a must do. Our chef (Lancelot) was fantastic with the kids. Macaroons tasted amazing. Whole family has a blast

The whole experience was fabulous. The instructor was so engaging. The class was educational & entertaining. We would take the class again. Lorenzo did a fabulous job of explaining the steps, and modeling what needed to be done. It was the perfect way to start a day in Paris.

It was a wonderful and yummy experience. Had my 12 year old granddaughter with and she loved it. Very organized and easy instructions. Our instructor was amazing

This was a fabulous experience. The baker was friendly, efficient and helpful. My daughter and I did the class together and it was a highlight of our trip to Paris. The macarons were so yummy! Would do this again and based on this experience, I would take more cooking classes in the future…

Me and my daughter’s favorite thing we did in Paris. It was the perfect activity to do during the day especially during the heat wave. Classes were very personal and light. Our instructor became my daughter’s favorite person in France. Would highly recommend to anyone. Myself (36) and my daughter (11) would absolutely do this again at the same place and make something new next time.

My 20 year old daughter loves to bake. I signed us up for this class after reading great reviews.
The class is 2 hours long and you simply show up at the address. Rosalie was our pastry chef and she was a phenomenal instructor. She explained the instructions and demonstrated for the class. She would walk around and check everybody's work. This lead to all of us successfully baking macarons! Rosalie is patient amd delivered instructions so thoroughly.
There were only 5 people in our class. After baking our macarons, Rosalie showed us some inspiration that she saved photos of. Everyone in the class created their own designs amd we all swapped colors to get creative. This was so fun!
At the end of the class, my daughter and I each left with over 29 macarons. I chose vanilla flavor, she chose lemon. She gave us a box and we were able to choose a sticker.
We can make macarons amd so can you! I highly recommend this class! My daughter said it was one of her most favorite activities in Paris! Merci mille foisted Rosalie!

Very fun and informative! I’m an avid baker, who has attempted macarons many times. I believe this gave me what I needed to be successful at home!

The Viator platform completely dropped the ball on this booking and sent me and my daughter to the wrong address. Had to call an Uber at the last minute to drive us across Paris to the right address, and missed a big part of the activity. This caused us immense stress, extra fees and ruined the experience.
Joyce_J, Jun 2026
A great experience. Not as complicated as expected as Nickolas explained each step in detail. One of the best things we did while in Paris. The studio was very clean. Nickolas was very friendly. Showed amazing patience as we had 3 children under age 10 in our class.
Stephanie_S, Jun 2026
So much fun and there were two classmates the same age as my granddaughter s
Which made it more fun for her!
Melissa_B, Jun 2026
Alice was terrific! Take the class in the beginning of your trip and save money buying other macarons! You will have about a dozen to take away to share or enjoy!
Liana_B, Jun 2026
We were really looking forward to a fun, engaging baking experience. Unfortunately, what we got was the opposite. The instructor was unfriendly, unpleasant, and brought very little energy or enthusiasm to the session. The class felt flat and unengaging — our kids were bored, and our friend, who is an avid home baker, left feeling uninspired and unmotivated to ever attempt macarons at home. That really says it all.
We wanted to leave with happy memories, great photos, and a story to tell when we got home. Instead, we left wishing we had spent our time differently. I rarely write reviews, but I feel compelled to share this so others can make an informed decision. This class was a significant miss!

The filling ganache was flowing all over. The macroons were hard - it was very unfriendly and rude experience. It was not a personalized experience it was like let's get through and move to next

This fun class will teach you how to make your own amazingly good small macaroons. They are better than ones I later bought in Paris. Hint: only buy small macaroons; the large ones are very disappointing after taking this class. You will go home with a box of delicious macaroons to enjoy during your time in Paris.
The recipe is provided so you can reproduce the macaroons at home to amaze your family. Or hold a macaroon making party and amaze your friends!

This was a perfect activity in between all the museum tours! Rosalie was our pastry chef and had patience and knowledge. She made this hands-on baking class so much fun. The macarons were delicious!
MaryJane_D, Jun 2026
Connie was a highly fun, engaging and knowledgeable. Our group of 6, consisting of teens, pre teen, adult and senior, was well-catered to, regardless of age. Her expertise ensured that we did not miss out on any of instructions and received an we all email of recipe. As a grandparent traveling with my granddaughter in Paris who needs constant activities. I would highly recommend Connie as your instructor for the Macaroon baking class. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I did this baking class for my 17 year old daughter. It was great. Our patissiere was Clara and she was a great teacher. I'm excited to try my luck at home now!

A must do adventure when you are in Paris

Anissa_S, Jun 2026
This is such an amazingly cool thing to do!! Our baking chef, Leslie, was spectacular and knowledgeable! My macarons were tasty and beautiful! I'll be making these back home! Thanks for a great class!
Kat_L, Jun 2026
Me, my husband and our 8 year old attended the macaron class today with Felix as our chef. We had such an amazing time! Felix made it fun and easy for us, and the end product was really impressive. Great family activity; I’d do it again in a heartbeat! My only regret is not booking the croissant class as well!
Jennifer_H, Jun 2026
We booked this class not having any idea what to expect nor having the slightest idea how to make macarons. There were 8 people in our class (one child, 2 teens and the rest adults) and the instructor worked well with all of us. She was very patient and gave us lots of pointers. We each went home with a box of macarons that we made ourselves. Fun activity for the whole family. Highly recommend!

One of the highlights of our trip, we went with our 5YO son and he was engaged and entertained the whole time. I couldn’t believe how good our macarons came out!
Marcia_M, May 2026
The instructor Leslie was friendly, knowledgeable, and patient with everyone. She explained the process step-by-step and assisted everyone in the group meeting their individual skill level. She was patient, engaging, and the entire process was fun. We laughed and made the most delicious macarons..
Margaret_R, May 2026
Creating macarons is delightful! I really enjoyed the experience! And so did my adult son! It was really a great way to spend time in Paris!
Gary_J, May 2026
It was amazing. Everyone needs to experience this. So much fun not only making them but also eating them. The Baker was amazing.
pam_H, May 2026
Great fun! There were 8 of us in the class from 4 countries. Our teacher was Alice. The ingredients were pre measured. Alice helped us through all the steps. Yummy macarons when we were done!
Vicki_S, May 2026
This was such a fun baking experience. It took place in a baking school and they had three other classes going on. My particular class was for Macarons. The class was only 4 people which was great. Our baking instructor made the experience fun!!
We made traditional macarons and then had enough pastry left over to make some Freeform shaped macarons. While they were baking, we then made the cream filling. I was so surprised how well they turned out.
After we were done, they gave us our macarons to take home with us. 😋 😋 I would absolutely recommend this class to anyone!! It was a great way to spend a couple of hours on my birthday in Paris!!
Karla_L, May 2026
This was so much fun. The instructor was friendly and an excellent teacher. She helped when needed and was very encouraging. It was a completely different technique I can’t wait to try at home. I highly recommend.
