From using pre-ferments in viennoiserie to different styles of lamination techniques, we will learn to make various products, including interesting Danish shapes. The finished products include poolish croissant, kouign amann, cinnamon sugar snails, pain aux raisins, bear claws, twice-baked croissants and more.

Course Materials

Listed below are the items you must bring to class.

• Pens or pencils. You will use these to take notes in the classroom and the lab.
• Permanent marker. This piece of “equipment” is invaluable in the labs.
• Hair restraint. For safety and sanitation, you must restrain your hair if it’s long.

Attire

• Closed-toe, comfortable shoes. Your shoes must be closed for safety. They should be comfortable enough to stand in all day.
• For safety, your pants must cover your entire legs. For your comfort, we recommend breathable pants. Checked chef’s pants are popular because they don’t show flour spills or stains.
• White chef’s coat. This is optional item. However, we strongly recommend chef’s coats because they look professional and protect your body and clothing. Most importantly, they keep you warm when it’s cold and cool when it’s hot.
