Triskell Bakery's Discovering the Art of making French Croissants:

Join us for a three hour class to learn how to make authentic French croissants from scratch.

Alain Marec, your instructor and founder of Triskell Bakery, is a French-born food scientist and home baker who will teach you how to create French croissants and pains au chocolat (chocolate croissants).

During the class, you will create your own croissants and practice all the steps in the making, including:

making croissant dough,
making the butter block (beurre de tourrage),
learning and practicing folding techniques (laminating the dough)
dividing the dough and shaping the croissants,
baking croissants.

While the process is 3 days long, we will be able to practice every step of the process. Alain will prepare ingredients and materials ahead of time to make sure you explore and practice every step.

Students will go home with:

A small box of medium sized croissants/pains au chocolat to take home (made by Alain ahead of time and baked on premises).
A tray of croissants they will have personally shaped during class to proof and bake at home the next day.
A hand out of the presentation given in class and Alain's contact information for future questions and troubleshooting.
