The Croquembouche Class by Pierrick Boyer
No cake has gripped people's imagination in recent times quite like the croquembouche.
Since being featured on Masterchef it seems everyone wants to
get into the act and create their very own tower of custard filled profiteroles, joined with crunchy caramel and decorated with spun sugar.
Now you can learn the secrets and skills needed to make your very own croquembouche with master patissier Pierrick Boyer.
The class will begin with an overview from Pierrick, including explanation of the cooking methods and skills required.
Then it's time to get started as the group begins work on making the choux pastry balls, pastry cream and the caramel.
Finally each class participant will have an opportunity to create (and take home) their very own croquembouche!
