The Holiday Croissant Workshop

Learn the art of making croissants at home! Pastry Chef Thanh Tang will take you step-by-step through the croissant making process. Your guests will be left wondering if you took a quick trip to France for them! In this hands-on class, you will make the détrempe and beurrage, then learn how to properly shape, fill and bake to achieve flaky, delicate croissants. Topics and techniques explored in this class include dough composition and lamination, yeast fermentation, gluten development and flavor formation.

Recipes in this class include:

  • Croissant Dough Master Recipe (Butter Croissant)
  • Pain au Noisette et Chocolat  (Hazelnut Chocolate Croissant)
  • Croissant au Jambon  (Ham and Cheese Croissant)

You’ll take home baked croissants from dough the chef pre-makes and you shape, as well as the prepared dough you make to shape and bake the next day! Shaped dough can also be frozen.
