This advanced cooking class has been created for the keen, confident home cook who is looking to enhance their skills to a higher level. In each class, we’ll focus on key techniques used in advanced patisserie.
On our Patisserie day, you will learn how to master the classic choux pastry. We also cover skills such as the making of a cremeau and the French classic, Madelines. Upon finishing the class you will be heading home with:
-Miso Caramel, Lime & Chocolate Choux Buns
-Glazed Brown Butter Madelines
Both of these recipes demonstrate great patisserie techniques and the art of piping.
Please be aware, this menu will change with the season.
You will also learn how to plate, garnish and finish your food like a chef, taking detailed notes home so you can recreate the dishes to impress family and friends. This masterclass promises to be a fun-filled, inspiring day.

Class structure
Cooking with your classmates is an integral part of your Leiths experience. You will cook some of your recipes in pairs, and some independently – whatever the ratio, there is always more than enough food, and often food to take home too.
Your day will comprise of a mixture of hands on cookery and demonstrations performed by the chef who is running the session. The exact format will vary from class to class depending on the style of cuisine and, in the case of visiting chefs, their individual teaching style.
Unless otherwise stated, you will be eating the food that you have cooked during your class for lunch, usually with wine or elderflower cordial around a communal table. If your class does not involve cooking lunch you will enjoy delicious sharing platters prepared by the school.
Allergies and dietary restrictions Please call the school to discuss any relevant allergies with a member of staff. You can read our full policy on allergies and dietary restrictions here.
What you'll learn A Masterclass at Leiths: Patisserie
These are fast paced, intensive classes, suitable for experienced cooks who are already confident in the skills covered in each class (such as pastry making and patisserie, fish and shellfish preparation, etc.) and are keen to refine their skills whilst learning some high-end techniques. The classes are not suitable for beginners or those with little experience of the specific skills covered. Beginners will find classes such as Leiths Ultimate Afternoon Tea or The Secret of Souffles more suitable.
