Description

Welcome to our Classic French Baking Summer Camp! In this hands-on camp, you will learn the key techniques for baking croissants and pain au chocolat. We will delve into working with a yeasted dough, creating a butter-laminated dough (layering the dough with butter and folding it over), filling, proofing and baking. You will leave with my croissant recipe, the knowledge to recreate croissants and pain aux chocolats at home, the pastries you make in class, and maybe some croissant dough to bake at home later! NOTE: You may want to bring a container to class to hold/store your bake-at-home croissant dough on the ride home or a small cooler if you are traveling more than an hour to attend. That way it will stay chilled and not begin to rise on your trip home. Camp is open to ages 13+
