Petit Gâteau & Pastry Art Masterclass

Petit Gâteau & Pastry Art Masterclass

Saturday, 17 August • 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM | R1 490

Have you ever admired those delicate, multi-layered petits gâteaux in patisserie windows and wondered how they’re made? Join me in an intimate four-hour atelier—just six seats—for a deep dive into high-level pastry craftsmanship:

• Choux Pastry Perfection: Learn Serena’s fool-proof method for piping and baking choux so they’re hollow, tender and perfectly shaped.
• Decadent Fillings: Create a rich chocolate crémeux and a velvety praline cream, mastering texture and balance in every layer.
• Chocolate Décor & Assembly: Finish your petits gâteaux with tempered chocolate shards, piped accents and artistic flourishes worthy of a professional display.

Your experience includes:

• A crisp apron & chef’s hat (yours to wear for the class)
• Unlimited Dilmah tea & locally roasted coffee at our open-bar station
• All your petits gâteaux boxed to take home—impress your friends or treat yourself
• Printed recipe sheets + an exclusive e-recipe book packed with Serena’s pro tips and troubleshooting notes

What makes this atelier truly exceptional? Every ingredient is sourced from South African artisans—flours from heritage grain growers, single-origin cacao from local farmers and house-made praline using in-country nuts. In our small-group setting, you’ll get hands-on guidance at each stage, learning not just “how” but the “why” behind every technique.

This level of pastry magic happens only once—and seats are almost gone. Reserve your spot today and transform the way you bake, one exquisite petit gâteau at a time.
