Macaron Workshop

Have you always wanted to learn to make Macarons, but something has held you back?

If the answer is yes, then this workshop is for you!

It is geared towards beginner bakers, so no experience is necessary. The only thing you need to be successful is a willingness to try.

At The Salted Pepper Academy, our motto is, "We Learn Better Together." So, let's join together and learn to make some beautiful macarons!

Before you register, please look over the details of the workshop and the recommended supplies and only register if you plan on participating and making the macarons during the workshop.

Plan on about 2 hours each week to learn about making Macarons and about 4 hours on baking day.

Don't Delay!

Registration for the Workshop Closes on Friday, March 8th or when all the spots fill up!

Workshop Details

This is a 3-week workshop that has both written instruction and video instruction. The workshop starts on Sunday, March 10th and and ends on March 31st.
There will be 2 LIVE sessions each week. One is a cooking class and the other is a Q&A and troubleshooting session. *Attendance is not mandatory and replays will be available.
- LIVE Orientation is on March 10th at 3pm US Central Time
- Weekly Cooking Classes are March 16th, March 23rd, and March 30th at 3pm US Central Time
- LIVE Q&A and Troubleshooting are on March 13th, March 20th, and March 27th at 6pm US Central Time
Participation in group discussions is expected and the group is similar to how a Facebook group works. I will be posting information ongoing throughout the workshop and you can participate and ask questions on days and times that work best for you.
The workshop is held inside The Salted Pepper Academy in a private area so only registered attendees can see the videos and participate.
The workshop is free to attend or you can choose to pay whatever you think is fair as a way to support future workshops. Please do not feel obligated to pay, the option is there because people have requested the option.

Kitchen Tools for Workshop

There are a few basic kitchen tools that you will need to participate in the workshop.

A stand or electric hand mixer
Parchment Paper or Silicone Mats
Baking Trays
Kitchen scale (I will provide volume measurements, but a scale is more consistent)
A piping or decorating bag (can be disposable) with a large round tip. (A plastic ziplock bag may work)
Oven Thermometer (optional, but oven temps are key in baking the Macaron shells)
Oven to bake in. This can be a countertop oven or a regular oven.
Basic Ingredients for Macarons are:
- Almond Flour
- Egg Whites
- Sugar (white and confectioners)
- Flavored Fillings like ganache, buttercream, and fruit fillings (We will explore the various options during the workshop and you can decide which you want to make)

A Note from Louise

I am so excited about this workshop and can't wait to learn the basics of making macarons with friends. It's going to be a great experience!

Making macarons isn't for everyone and if this workshop isn't the right fit for you, no worries at all!

There are more to come! My goal is to do one a month that range from a few days to several weeks in length. Here are some of the topics I plan to cover.

Sourdough Starter
Basic Bread Making for Beginners
Making Homemade Pasta

And, that is just the beginning!

These workshops are limited in size to keep them personal and effective, so the best way to stay up to date and be the first to get notified when registration opens is to join our FREE private community, The Salted Pepper & Friends!

I'm looking forward to seeing you inside our community and in this workshop or future ones!

All My Best,

Louise
