We remember the cakes of our grandmothers, our mothers, the Christmas logs, the January cakes or even the chocolate cake recipes that have been passed down from generation to generation. Children love to cook, to get their hands in the dough and to elaborate desserts or dishes to enjoy. Even if you're not a professional pastry chef or if you're a complete failure at making chocolate fondants, there's still a solution: family cooking classes!
From the workshops given by great chefs to the practical classes of some brands dedicated to cooking for children, there are many cooking classes in Paris, especially designed for children. Classified by age group, you have a wide choice between sessions for teenagers (often without parents), classes for toddlers or even parent-child duo classes, to share a gourmet moment with them!
At the end of the year, you will have pastry classes to make Christmas cookies or a log, in January it's time to learn how to make a beautiful almond frangipane... Or, the rest of the year, try your hand at great recipes for cookies, brownies, choux, tiramisu or many savory recipes. Some courses even offer the opportunity to learn how to prepare an entire meal, including appetizer, main course and dessert, to delight the whole family when you get home.
Step by step, the professionals explain what the tools are used for, how to cut meat, vegetables or the cooking times to be adapted for each food, always under a pedagogical eye and in complete safety! You'll become a true cordon bleu and above all, you'll have a great time with your family in a fully equipped professional workshop, with advice, recommendations and recipes to take home and reproduce.
World cuisine, vitamin-packed snacks, gourmet cakes or generous hot dishes: there is a wide choice, and all you have to do is select the recipe you want to prepare. Ready to go? Put on your chef's hat and apron and let's go for a cooking or pastry workshop with your family! Here is our selection of cooking classes for children, teenagers or parent-child duo in Paris and the Ile-de-France region.
