Learn How to Bake the Iconic Macaron in Paris

Elegant, colorful, and tasty. The macaron is a sweet Paris icon loved by locals and tourists alike. Behind this meringue-based treat lies a series of sophisticated tricks and techniques which you will learn and practice during this 3-hour class in the heart of the historic Latin Quarter. Our limited group size allows one-on-one assistance from your professional instructor: you will learn how to confidently whip up Italian meringue, add in colorant correctly, learn piping techniques for perfect shells, and create several delicious fillings. After making your macarons, we will gather at the table to taste them served alongside tea or coffee and we will share some of our stories about French culture and how these unique treats have helped shaped the face of Paris. 

At the end of our time together, you will receive a box to take your macarons home with you. Whether you choose to share them or enjoy all to yourself is up to you!

FAQ

  • Expand/Collapse Can you accommodate my special dietary needs?

    While we will try our best to satisfy any special dietary need, we do not guarantee we will be able to do so, and ask that you let us know about those at least 72 hours prior to the class. Failure to do this might result in not being able to accommodate your needs but will not warrant a refund.

    If on the other hand you let us know at least 72 hours prior to the class, and for some reason we can not fulfil your specific needs on the day of class you have chosen, we will provide either an alternative date or a full reimbursement.

Macaron Baking Class Reviews

Macaron Baking Class   is rated 5.0 out of 5 by 6.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Four Paris trip highlights I was in Paris from July 9 to July 15 with two fourteen year old granddaughters to celebrate their birthday. We booked four events through Fat Tire Tours and they were the highlghts of our trip. The guides were all wonderful: attentive, knowledgeable and fun. Grace led us through the Gardens of Versailles. We learned about the Louis (sun, fun and done), and how the garden were used. Grace professionally and carefully dealt with another rider who fell and still kept all of us busy with finding lunch at the market. Thomas gave us an overall perspective of Paris on our Best of Paris tour. He kept us all moving through the Paris traffic safely which was amazing. He had good information about Notre Dame and the Louvre. He was full of suggestions from a locals perspective. Bianca taught us how to ride a Segway (and how not to ride one) and ensured we could do it safely. When a young boy fell (I am not sure he practiced what she had taught him), she provided first aid to both he and his sister who was riding close to her brother and also fell. Bianca got support from other Fat Tire staff to return the boy’s Segways and then worked to make sure that we would still get our full tour, which we enjoyed. .we also did the Macaron Class at le Foodist and it was excellent. I am not sure I would have found it if Fat tire didn’t list it We had a great trip and I am sure my granddaughters enjoyed the activities AND their history lessons. Thank you so much!!! I have one thing to confess... I took one of your rolls of toilet paper on our last day. I won’t get into the explanation. I don’t do things like that, but I did! Sorry!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Highlight of our trip! This was an amazing class that I did with my Husband. It was so much fun and Amanda was great! Loved sharing with the other groups over tea at the end of the Class. We will take another Class next time in Paris! We will remember forever.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wonderful afternoon activity I chose to do this activity Autumn 2016 as a solo event, and what a great afternoon it turned out to be! A real highlight in both the actual activity and the people I met from around the world who'd also signed up for it. A very hands-on class in a professional--yet relaxed--environment with an excellent instructor. You will learn tips and tricks to ensure you get the "perfect foot" on your macaron discs. Followed by a sharing tea party, you'll go home with a box of your group's creations... I did this at the end of my trip, so I was able to bring my macarons home to Toronto to share with friends, and now that I have the confidence, I've made them at home a couple times. Highly recommended!
