Cooking Class - Macaroons and Macarons - Brighton

Matt B. 01/12/2026

We took a class on a highly technical baking project, French macarons with Chef Lisa. It is hard to overstate what a great experience this was! Chef is part instructor, part motivator, and part scientist. She didn't just talk at us, but made sure that we were hands-on doing the work the whole time, and this gave me great confidence that I truly *can* do what we learned after the fact! She always made sure to give the feedback that we can (and are) going in the right direction, which is important. She was also super knowledgeable about the science behind the food, and gave all the details, and was able to answer any question we thought of. Being able to pick the brain of a real chef is a super useful aspect of the whole experience. I also want to say that you could tell from the little things that weren't listed in the course description that she has a passion for hospitality, and making sure her guests have a good time. 100% you will not regret one second of time spent in her classes!

We made macarons and 2 other cookies (amaretti and a no bake coconut cookie). The class was a birthday present for my 11 year old daughter and Chef Lisa was amazing with her (and even altered what she had planned to bake with us to accommodate my daughter). We had a wonderful time and learned a lot!

Chef Lisa greatly exceeded my expectations! Her vast knowledge in the culinary arts was prevalent in every answered question and explained technique. She was incredibly kind, patient, and personable throughout the class. Though it was a very educational few hours, Chef Lisa's humor made learning feel like play. I'm so happy with my experience overall and will most definitely recommend this class to everyone I know!

I had a great learning experience! It was inspiring to see Chef Lisa being passionate towards her work. Also super patient and kind. I would love to take another class sometime with the Chef. The Macaroon and macaron turned out super yummy. Thanks for this experience! :)

Lisa was so positive and knowledgeable! The class went beyond basic technique, and she really explained the "why" behind everything. We walked away with some great new skills and recipes, as well as a bag full of goodies. Truly a great experience

Chef Lisa was fantastic! I was recently diagnosed with celiac, and she was super careful with the ingredients / cleanliness of the kitchen. We had a great time learning to make three different treats and getting to know, Lisa. Book this class!

A++++. This class was amazing!!! My daughter and I had such a good time and learned so much from Chef Lisa. Lisa did a wonderful job of breaking down a pretty complicated recipe and explaining the techniques. She also gave us a little science lesson to explain why we did things the way we did. Chef Lisa has the perfect combination of expertise, teaching ability, and patience! We loved this class and will definitely be signing up for another one with Chef Lisa!

We had so much fun taking Chef Lisaâ€™s macaron class! We found parking easily, weâ€™re greeted and attended to right away, and went over our experience and questions before jumping in to cooking. Once started, all the ingredients were ready to go and she helped us with step by step instructions while providing her own tips along the way! She made the time together enjoyable with her witty sense of humor and had us splitting out tasks to get everything accomplished in the time we had together. We left with a ton of delicious cookies and were surprised WE made them ourselves! Had a blast and would recommend!

Chef Lisa was a terrific instructor. She was warm, inviting, and patient. She imparted her wealth of knowledge in ways that were readily understandable and digestible. My 11yo daughter felt engaged the entire time (and class ran longer than anticipated - in a good way). The output of the lesson were utterly delicious macarons and macaroons. We canâ€™t wait to bake our own at home. I would t hesitate to take another class with Chef Lisa!!!

We signed up for a Macaron & Macaroon cooking class, and had a blast. Chef Lisa, taught us the art of making them, as well as the science behind it. She is super friendly, knowledgeable and made the class as great as it was. The class was 3 hours long, but went by so fast because we were constantly baking, laughing and taste testing our work along the way. We are not much of bakers but after this class we have the confidence to try and make them on our own. I would highly recommend taking a cooking class with Chef Lisa. We will defiantly be looking to take more of Chef Lisa's classes in the future!

We had a wonderful time. Lisa was patient, creative and giving with her time and expertise. We're so excited to re-create these treats at home! It almost feels too easy. They turned out wonderfully and our family and friends were so impressed!

We had a great time, and would definitely recommend! Very instructive and very fun!

I took Chef Lisaâ€™s class on Macaroons and Macarons with my 12-year-old granddaughter. It was a great class; we both learned a lot and had a good time. Chef Lisa is extremely knowledgeable and easy going. She was great at interacting with my granddaughter who came home anxious to tell her mother all she learned. The end result was delicious.

Had a great experience! Lisa was amazing and took her time teaching us the proper techniques and tricks. The end result came out looking like it should be from a bakery!! Would recommend to everyone! Plan on going back and taking another class!
