Many people come to Paris to learn to cook and the city offers a variety of courses to fulfil that ambition. Courses may concentrate on a particular aspect of French cooking, like bakery or classic cuisine, but the art of the patisserie has always been considered one of the most demanding of disciplines. A macaron course in Paris from Le Foodist, is designed to unravel these mysteries and provide our students with the knowledge they need to make great patisserie at home. Conventional wisdom has it that accuracy is the key to successful pastry making and our course looks at what works and what doesn't in patisserie.
