WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THESE PASTRY CLASSES IN SAN DIEGO

Pastries for Fall Review Photo from Cooking Class in San Diego

Pastries for Fall Review Photo from Cooking Class in San Diego 2

Pam W.

Booked the class Pastries for Fall with Chef Donna in Carlsbad

This was a great class. 6 students learned 3 different pastry bakes. So many unknown baking lessons. Mary, the chef, was wonderful. She made us feel so comfortable and welcome. I would definitely take another class from her.

Grace S.

Booked the class The Magic of French Pastries with Chef Donna in Carlsbad

Fantastic! So much fun!

Jasmin F.

Booked the class Cream Puffs, Eclairs, and More! with Chef Kim

Chef Kim was great. She asked if we preferred to watch or if we wanted a hands on course. When we said hands on, she walked us through each step and let us do everything. I would give it 4.5 stars if I could, because she left about 45 minutes early and we didn't get to the profiteroles or the gruyÃ¨re. We made a ton of Ã©clairs and cream puffs though! She added a merengue option as a filling that I wasn't expecting, but I was bummed about missing the savory option. If you've never taken a pastry class this was a great first step. It's not like cooking where you can eyeball ingredients and cook and taste, cook more and taste again. You'll measure everything by weight or else it won't come together. Overall exciting class and amazing cream puffs and Ã©clairs.

Kirsten F.

Booked the class Cream Puffs, Eclairs, and More! with Chef Kim

Chef Kim is experienced, knowledgeable, and so sweet. She knows what she's doing and can tell you exactly why it all works together but if you just want to come in and learn how to make AMAZING light and delicious cream puffs you can with this class.

Maesa H.

Booked the class Mastery of Homemade Tarts with Chef Adina in San Diego (Tierrasanta)

I would not repeat this experience unfortunately. And the reasons are below: 1. For the amount of money paid, this was not organized very well. Ingredients were brought so only one person could do anything at a time and all three recipes were being partially cooked simultaneously which led to some confusion. The end results were just ok. The onion tart was so soggy, it was inedible. The rose tart was good, the other tart just ok. 2. Did not give us the recipes beforehand. It would have been nice to look alongside so we could follow along or knew what to expect. I also had asked for the recipes after thru CozyMeal but we never received those. 3. The ingredients were not the best quality. We only used two apples in all of the recipes and one of them was ready to toss in the bin. Everything was brought pre-measured in other containers which I understand is for efficiency.. but for over $300 i think it would've been reasonable to bring yogurt, cream cheese and the other ingredients in their original packaging. Overall, the whole thing felt a little rushed. Chef left 45 min earlier than our intended stop time.

Roberto F.

Booked the class Pie Baking Fun with Chef Donna in Carlsbad

The Pie baking experience didnâ€™t really live up to my, very beginner, pie making expectations. Chef Mike was a nice guy but he was very open about the fact that he was a savory chef not a pastry chef. He didnâ€™t have much to add to the process of baking other than to say he wasnâ€™t into measuring very much. This was evident in the prep for the class. We made one full size pie of peaches and blueberries. After getting things mixed, we pored the filling into the crust and it was about 1/3 the amount it should have been. Not a huge deal but it doesnâ€™t show any attention to basic prep. When doing the lattice on the pie the sous chef (who claimed to be a pastry chef) didnâ€™t know the process for weaving the lattice. She instructed us one way and was corrected by, Iâ€™m guessing, the manager of (the store where the class held. The kicker was that the ovens apparently werenâ€™t baking our pies as fast as they should have been. So, our pie came out almost baked by the end of the class. The chef instructed the sous chef to take it out of the pie tin and put it in a cake box, for us to take home and finish baking. Well this assumes we have a pie tin at home and also assumes that weâ€™ll be able to get a fully loaded pie, sitting in just the crust, off of a cardboard box and into a pie tin. Not easy for an experienced chef Iâ€™m sure, let alone a couple of novices. I would have guessed working ovens or better prep with timing would be a basic feature of a class like this. There was so much down time waiting for the pie to slowly bake that the chef started teaching us how to cut onions and mince garlic. Nothing wrong with that, just a lot of standing and waiting that seemingly shouldnâ€™t have happened. The one thing everyone on staff seemed prepared to do was push sign-ups for their other classes and products in the store (for which we were given a 10% off coupon). All in all, I was disappointed. This was supposed to be a nice gift for my wifeâ€™s birthday but it turned out to be a big let down. I would not recommend the Cozy Meal classes.
