Croquembouche Masterclass at Patisse

We FINALLY decided to try out Patisse’s infamous cooking classes on Tuesday evening! we walked in bright eyed and bushy tailed keen to learn ‘The Art of Pastry’ from none other than pastry chef Vincent Gadan.

Choux Pastry

Croquembouche consists of making choux pastry and piping 50 choux balls. You then make the creme patissiere and fill each ball. Then the tedious task of dipping each ball into VERY hot caramel toffee without burning your fingertips! Then the assembly of the tower and finished off with you own decoration.
