Baking 101

Learn the basics of baking from noted pastry chefs, authors, and entreprenuers Matt and Allison Robicelli in the intimate setting of their Bay Ridge bakeshop. These classes aren't meant to make you a better cake decorator or cookie artist- they're meant to make you a better baker! You'll learn the science behind the dishes, chefs secrets you won't find on television, and technique that will forever change the way you cook at home.

This class is meant for your to build a solid repertoire of baked goods to whip up at home. You'll learn not just how to follow a recipe, but how these dishes come together, and why they occasionally fail. You'll leave the class with a solid understanding of pastry, a full belly, and some sweet treats to bring home.

We'll be making:

• Chocolate Chip Cookies
• Vanilla Cupcake Cake with Chocolate Frosting
• Quiche with Bacon, Gruyere, Caramelized Onions and Herbs

Classes will be a mix of chef demo and hands on work from selected students, with everyone getting to bring home a little something. Fee includes two hours of instruction and all materials. All students will recieve 10% off all Robicelli's baked goods purchased after class.
