Starting in the 19th Century French desserts became more popular when Marie’-Antoine Careme revolutionized pastry techniques and presentation. The French became well known for their baked goods being meticulously crafted, high-quality ingredients with a deep appreciation for culinary art. Eclairs being one of the most well-known French desserts means “Lightning” in French. Tarte Tatin is a signature tarte which will make your mouth water. Madeleines are a traditional treat from the Lorraine region of northeastern France. These cookies can be enjoyed as breakfast or as a snack. Get excited to try out your baking skills with Lisa with some French flair.

Baking with Lisa
Hello all, I started working at Kitch last year after closing my long time business You Take The Cake after nearly 20 years. I graduated from Culinary Institute of America in NY and began working for Ocean Reef Club in Key Largo, FL in their bakery. I have also worked for The Strathallan in Rochester NY, Foxwoods, Mystic Market and Thames River Greenery’s coffee shop. With so many different baking experiences I am excited to now teach and share my experience. This class will be a combination of hands on participation and demonstration by me. No matter what your skill level, we will have fun, and you will learn the baking techniques I have developed in my 20 years of professional baking experience. Class fee is $75, and best of all, you get to take home what we make! Classes are limited to 6 people, for the most personal experience. If a class gets cancelled due to lack of participation, you will be offered a full refund, or the ability choose another class. We look forward to seeing you in the kitchen, at Kitch!
