We wanted to offer an experience for those people who may not have the time to take one of our longer courses or who are looking for a more specialized topic. We can focus on certain themes and those who seek more, you can enroll in future classes when they are ready.

If you have very minimal skills, this is for you. If you have pretty good skills, the course is still structured to improve them and give you the aha! moments to level up.

The first day will be focused more on preparations of recipes. While the second day will concentrate on finishing products.

The person who is curious about pastry arts in general, for the pastry lover who wants to level up their skills closer to professional standards, or even someone looking to drill down on a particular topic. All age groups take this course – from 18 year olds to seniors. Typically, the class is usually split 50-50 male/female.

The most important tool for you is your pastry/bench scraper. But also important are a good set of knives and towels. As well, you should probably bring a container to take your goodies home.

Because these classes are almost always full, we can’t offer you to remake missed classes at a later date. However, we encourage you to have your spot filled by friend. We’ll take good care of them.

Maybe not both nights. But guaranteed there will be tasty treats coming home with you. As mentioned above, the first night of the week tends to be focused on production and, as a result, you may not have anything until night two.

Most likely, yes. Each of the courses we offer have different instructors based on their particular focus and passion.

It is advisable for you to bring a deep box/container to take product home.

Best to talk to your instructor about alternatives. So, while you may need to make products that contain ingredients you cannot consume during class, your instructor will hopefully be able to give you guidance on making substitutions that meet your dietary restrictions.

If you have specific allergies please let us know.

To be clear, this is not a nut or gluten free facility.

The school does not have a parking lot, but there is plenty of free parking in the neighbourhood between 12-14th Street, Main and Ontario. There is metered parking in front of the school, and free parking on 12th, both after 6pm (which is why we begin classes at 6:15pm).
