About this activity

Behind the doors of a traditional Parisian boulangerie, flour, fermentation, and craftsmanship come together in this hands-on French baguette masterclass. Alongside a local baker, you will learn how authentic baguettes are made — from preparing the dough and understanding fermentation to shaping, scoring, and baking using techniques practiced daily in French bakeries. Throughout the experience, you will create three different baguette styles while discovering the secrets behind a perfect golden crust and open, airy crumb. Each style highlights a different aspect of the bread making process, giving you a well-rounded understanding of the craft. Hosted in a working neighborhood bakery in Paris, this small-group experience is limited to 10 guests, ensuring a personal and truly hands-on atmosphere in a real boulangerie. Whether you are passionate about food, curious about French culture, or simply love fresh bread, this masterclass is authentic, immersive, and educational.
