Perfect for your budding Pastry Chefs (Age 12+), this 5 day immersive Patisserie Summer Camp is designed to introduce a wealth of techniques. Each recipe can be adapted in a hundred different ways and with our extensive selection of Organic and Natural Flavors and Extracts, each student can create their own unique masterpieces!

Each day will be devoted to mastering a selection of different techniques, so good listening skills, a moderate level of dexterity and an adequate attention span are necessary. Some prior baking experience is required for this course. If your camper has attended one of our previous summer camps, they should be skilled enough to attend, but if you are in doubt, please email [email protected] before booking.
