Grandma’s French Desserts & Snacks (In-person Class)

July 21, 2021 @ 8:00 am - 4:30 pm

- $298

Join us in this intense one-day workshop to learn and experience desserts and snacks that grandmothers and mothers make at home for and with their grandchildren and children. I found myself getting my hands in madeleine or waffle batters coming back from school. Who would end up polishing off or licking off the bowl? That was always the question for me!

You will learn how to make and bake madeleines, financiers, clafoutis, gauffres (yeasted and chemically-leavened French waffles), crepes (savory and sweet) and the famous Rocamadour walnut cake with assistance from the instructor.You will go back home with an armful of baked goods, a scallop madeleine pan, and batter so that you can impress your family and friends with piping hot madeleines.

Due to the new policy by the health department, please wear a face mask, and keep 6 feet apart from other people. We will check the temperature every morning when you come into the building.

The class will begin at 8:00 am. We will have breakfast pastries and Lunch boxes ready for you 30 minutes before class starts. (if you have any special diet please let us know in advance) We also welcome you to bring your own drink. Let us know if you have any questions feel free to contact: CustomerService@sfbi.com

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. 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.
We suggest that you dress in layers. Your chef’s coat (optional), with a t-shirt for your base layer and a long-sleeved shirt for warmth, should keep you warm when it’s cold and cool when it’s hot. You may want to bring a sweatshirt or fleece for the mornings.
