Paris Authentic French Bread and Baguette Baking Class

3 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

In this hands-on class, you’ll prepare traditional French baguettes, rich brioches, and beautifully twisted babkas from scratch.

Each recipe introduces different techniques and textures, giving you a broader understanding of bread making than a class focused on a single product. Guided by our professional chef, you’ll learn how to knead, shape, proof, score, fill, and bake each dough, while understanding why every step matters.

The class is designed for all levels and takes place in a welcoming Parisian studio. You’ll work in a small group, receive personalized guidance, and enjoy a friendly, relaxed atmosphere.

The experience ends with a tasting of your freshly baked creations, accompanied by a selection of French products. You’ll leave with practical techniques, greater baking confidence, and delicious breads to enjoy.

What to expect

Welcome to our Authentic French Bread & Baguette Baking Class, where you’ll discover the secrets of French bread making in the heart of Paris.

Your experience will begin with an introduction to the ingredients and techniques used to create different types of dough. Guided by our professional pastry chef, you’ll learn how to mix, knead, and handle the dough to achieve the ideal texture and structure.

You’ll then get hands-on as you prepare three breads from scratch: a classic French baguette, a rich and buttery brioche, and a beautifully twisted babka. You’ll practice techniques such as shaping, rolling, filling, proofing, and scoring, while learning how each step affects the final result.

Throughout the class, your chef will share practical tips you can recreate at home, from understanding fermentation to achieving a golden crust and a soft, flavorful crumb.

Once your breads are baked, you’ll enjoy a tasting of your freshly made creations accompanied by a selected assortment of French products. Take in the aromas of the bakery, share the experience with your fellow bakers, and leave with new skills, memorable moments, and delicious French breads.
