Celebrate the arrival of a new year with a spectacular French pastry showstopper! In this indulgent two-day croquembouche workshop, participants will discover the art and science of choux pastry, mastering professional baking, filling, caramel, and assembly techniques to create an elegant tower of golden profiteroles — the perfect centrepiece for a New Year’s Eve celebration or any special occasion.
On day one, participants will learn the secrets to preparing light, crisp choux buns, developing the perfect texture and structure for a successful croquembouche. They’ll also prepare silky-smooth pastry cream in two classic flavours — vanilla and chocolate — before chilling it overnight, ready for filling and assembly the following day.
On day two, the magic continues as participants fill their choux buns with luscious pastry cream and learn the techniques behind constructing a beautifully balanced croquembouche tower. Using traditional assembly methods and elegant decorative finishes, they’ll transform their individual profiteroles into an impressive French pastry centrepiece, complete with those signature showstopping details.
From mastering the perfect choux bun to building a towering masterpiece, this workshop is a delicious way to welcome the New Year in style! Leave with newfound pastry skills, professional filling and assembly techniques, and your very own beautifully decorated croquembouche — an elegant, celebratory dessert designed to be shared and enjoyed with four people.
