Bake chocolate madeleines and coat them in moulded festive chocolate shells.
fromUSD 125per person
This French baking class in New York puts a festive spin on madeleines, the shell-shaped sponge cakes, in a two-hour workshop. It takes place in the teaching kitchen of a family-run cake and baking supply business, founded in 1991, whose Manhattan flagship on West 22nd Street also houses a café and shop.
You bake tender chocolate madeleines with their signature hump, then pipe green Christmas tree designs into moulds, fill with white chocolate and press the cakes in for a glossy shell.
Instructors explain how chilling the batter creates the hump and how to get a clean release from the mould, then guide you through each batch. All ingredients and supplies are included. Wear casual clothes you don't mind getting sugar on and flat closed-toe shoes, and tie back long hair.
Beginners and francophile bakers wanting an elegant holiday bake. Every class is hands-on and interactive, so expect to be busy at the counter; please tell the team about any allergies or dietary needs before the class starts.
