It was a very fun and informative class. Would have enjoyed actually whipping up the meringue ourselves instead of watching. We piped the wafers and mixed the fillings though. Taste testing was the best! Left with 4 macrons each. Would recommend this activity!

Lovely knowledgeable teacher, shared some great tips. You don’t actually make the macarons, just the filling, while the teacher talks you through the process of making the shells. Really nice relaxed atmosphere and suitable for younger children to have a go!

My 15 year old daughter and I enjoyed this class. It’s located inside the big Galeries Lafayette department store so you can shop before or after the class. Very easy to find. The teacher was very nice and spoke English well, no trouble understanding her. We learned some great tips that were looking forward to trying when we get home. At the end we each assembled four macarons and took those home. My only small wish was that we could have practiced piping the shells more. We only got to practice two per person. The class was full (15 people), all American. Overall, I’d recommend this class although I would say it would be more ideal for younger teens like 12-13.
