    I’d like a different venue so we have more space to work with. The tables at the Marriott lobby were TINY and it was tough making space. The instructor should be in a central place or have a microphone so we can head over all the cooking gadgets. Would’ve also liked to see examples of macarons that have gone bad to see what we can avoid. Otherwise, the instructor was knowledgeable and personable.

    The class was okay. Our macarons seemed like they were left in the oven too long. Make sure you choose a dark color for your macarons because they lose their color while cooking. We also never got our recipes as promised at the end. Maybe they forgot. Lastly, the venue was terrible because there was karaoke going on in the background so you couldn’t really hear the instructors all that well.

    This class was very fun and very easy to follow. Making these pastries is not easy but the instructors broke it down simply and were also very personable and fun. It was a good length of time so you didn't feel like you showed up and left right after. 2 hours and 15 minutes, we had a break in the middle to get some drinks and a bite to eat if we wanted. The instructors were clearly very knowledgeable and experienced in the space and overall the class was a great time. I highly recommend this to anyone looking to add a new skill to their baking repertoire.

    It was interesting to learn how to make French Macarons. I asked a lot of questions in the beginning of class, but the response I kept on getting was, "It's in the recipes".

I do wish, however, we were able to make our own individually from start to finish. The next day I was able to make my own that turned out great so regardless of how much I was able to participate within the group, it was still successful.

    My group really enjoyed this chocolate class! The instructor was great, energetic, dynamic, and had great pointers for us beginners. I think everyone loved learning how to make their own truffles and were excited to eat them later. It would have been nice if milk chocolate was an option and not just dark chocolate. Some of us aren't fans of dark chocolate, so having the option would have been better. The toppings were all great choices and we liked getting to create our own combinations of flavors and textures. Everyone was also impressed when we walked in the room and saw Tiffany colored cups at our stations, as well as the paper bags at the end. The subtle touches were so nice and thoughtful and much appreciated.

    Though I had never attempted to make French macarons before, I left this class feeling like a pro. I brought home 12+ delicious and adorable miniature macarons. The instructor was very knowledgeable and came around often to make sure we were on the right track. She was also a lot of fun and made a lot of jokes with us as we went through the steps. I'm not going to lie, I was intimidated by the recipe since you have to do everything just right to get a perfect end result. But I walked away with nearly perfect macarons! The only reason I'm not giving this class 5 stars is the location (Bryant Park Lounge at Residence Inn Marriott Times Square). Though the location was lovely, clean, and the staff was friendly... it happened to be karaoke night and it made it very difficult to hear the instructor. That being said, I'm sure this was due to poor planning on the hotel management and not the Cocusocial team.
