Master the Macaron: A 3-Part Parisian Pâtissier Residency with White Box

Bring a taste of Paris to your own kitchen. The Parisian Pâtissier is an invitation to skip the basic cookies and dive straight into the “trophy” of the French bakery: the Macaron. This three-session journey is designed for those who want to create something truly beautiful from day one. Under Rebekah’s Paris-trained guidance, you’ll master the specific, delicate techniques that usually take years to learn, all within the warm, boutique atmosphere of our studio. We believe you don’t need to be a professional to produce professional results. You just need the right mentor and a passion for the craft. By the end of this series, your signature “White Box” will be filled with the most impressive bakes of your life.

Curriculum:

Session 1: The Iconic Macaron We start with the most-requested skill in our repertoire. Instead of talking about egg whites, we’re going to master them. You’ll learn the specific “macaronage” fold and the secret to that perfect, glass-smooth shell. We’ll finish with custom-flavored ganaches, filling your first White Box with boutique-quality macarons that look (and taste) like they’re straight from the 1st Arrondissement.

Session 2: The Art of Choux Now that you’ve conquered the shell, we move to the architectural rise of Pâte à Choux. You’ll craft elegant Eclairs and airy Profiteroles, focusing on the tactile “feel” of the dough. We’ll dive into the velvety Crème Légère—the light, stable cream that defines French pastry. This session is about structure, symmetry, and the joy of the perfect “puff.”

Session 3: The Science of the Sweet In our final session, we pull back the curtain. Now that you’ve achieved the results, we’ll explore the “why.” We’ll deconstruct the chemistry of meringues and the physics of heat that made your first two sessions a success. You’ll learn the “Five Pillars of Pâtisserie,” giving you the confidence to improvise and innovate your own recipes at home. You leave not just with a box of treats, but with the intuition of a true pâtissier.

The Investment

The Foundation

What makes a White Box experience different? We don’t believe in “levels.” We believe in results. Most schools make you wait weeks to try a Macaron; we make it your first win. This “flipped” approach ensures you stay inspired by the beauty of what you’re creating while we bake the fundamentals into every step. Rebekah combines the rigorous, technical standards she learned at Le Cordon Bleu Paris with the friendly, encouraging energy of a home kitchen. Our goal isn’t just to teach you a recipe—it’s to give you the “visual win” immediately, building your confidence so that by the time we reach the science, you’ve already proven you can master it.
