The bakery introduced classes for the first time last year, and the “response was overwhelmingly positive,” but there was limited space.
“Encouraged by this success, we have chosen to expand our class offerings this year and enhance our learning environment,” said owner Dan Freeman.
“While conducting macaron making classes last year, we faced space constraints. The creation of this new area aims to accommodate more students in a more open and spacious environment,” he added.
This year’s first class was held on Jan. 11. The schedule, which was created at the end of last year, includes six classes exclusively focused on macaron making. However, the classes have already reached full capacity within two weeks of their announcement.
Freeman said more classes will be introduced at a later time. The schedule and details for the classes have not been made yet, but they will include things such as pastry, bread, cake decorating, pizza and more.
“We understand that there is considerable interest in the potential classes. It’s important to note that we are in the initial stages of class development and are actively working to create a comprehensive schedule. We kindly ask for patience as we progress in this process.”
