Cook Academy at The Essex Resort & Spa

In this hands-on class, you’ll learn the essentials of making pâte à choux—the delicate French dough behind airy, golden cream puffs. Guided by a chef instructor, you’ll mix, pipe, and bake your way to perfect puffs, and then fill them with rich pastry cream.

We’ll cover pro tips for mastering the dough, troubleshooting common issues, and elevating your presentation so you can recreate these classics at home.

This is a hands-on class; no prior experience is needed.
