BAKE THE BORDEAUX CLASSIC
→ Discover the iconic canelé in this hands-on pastry workshop devoted to Bordeaux's signature specialty.
→ Work with the techniques that give a canelé its distinctive contrast: a deeply caramelized, crisp exterior and a soft, custardy interior.
→ While the canelés bake, turn to another regional favorite: Gâteau Basque. Each participant prepares and decorates their own, choosing between pastry cream and jam.
→ The workshop concludes with a tasting of both pastries and a beverage. Enjoy your Gâteau Basque at the atelier or take it home.
