This was a wonderful way to spend a special birthday with friends and create our own special treats! Chef Stacy was an exceptional host/instructor. Her location was clean, welcoming, and she was very well prepared. The thought of making macarons was intimidating but Chef Stacy was great at explaining each step of the process, why to use certain techniques and how it affected quality. We also loved that she answered all related (and a bunch of semi-related) questions. Our dessert-making will definitely be improved after this baking experience!

My fiancé and I took the Mastering Macarons class with Stacey, and it was so much fun. She walked us through everything, explaining what we were doing and why at each step. She made tackling macarons very easy and not as intimidating as macarons are known to be. It is well worth the time to take a class with Stacey, she’s great!

Chef Stacey was so great! She was fun and informative. It's a great space and a nice atmosphere. I feel like I should be able to recreate the macarons we made in class today on my own now. And I promise to never make an American buttercream again! I intend to take other classes from Chef Stacey because I really enjoyed both her and this process.

Stacy was an excellent teacher. She was very thorough and went over all the little details that would help my guest and me make the best macarons. One of the reasons I wanted to take the class was to learn all those little tricks to make the best macarons ever. She had everything measured out and ready to start as soon as we got there.
Stacy was fun, which made the class very enjoyable. She even provided little snacks and water for us. We just had the best time and our macarons turned out so good. I would definitely take another class from Stacy.

"Elegant" eclairs did not describe the appearance of my first attempt (check out picture), but can I make them more elegant next time? YES! Stacey was absolutely wonderful. I learned a lot, and what I learned can apply to other kitchen adventures as well.

We had a great experience making Eclairs with Chef Stacey . My 14 year old granddaughter received such positive encouragement from Stacey, which was just a great boost for Maggie. She loves to bake and says she can now replicate this at home, her confidence was boosted by Stacey's encouragement. I enjoyed the experience, not being a baker. All in all, the eclairs looked great, and tasted amazing! Thanks, Chef Stacey!

Chef Stacy was a delightful hostess. She was very organized; all ingredients were pre-measured and ready to use. Stacey explained every ingredient, why it was used and gave hands on experiences which helped this older woman to understand and remember what to do when we tried it at home. (We did go home and made some great cream puffs on own)
I enjoyed every minute with Stacey; time flew by. My sister and I plan to take more classes from her.

Chef Stacy is very knowledgeable and a great instructor! In this class, we were paired up and were able to actually make the pastry dough ourselves and participate in making the fillings.
