Ladurée SoHo

First, Ladurée SoHo brought the best of Parisian pastries to New York City, and now you can bring them to your very own kitchen. The acclaimed Manhattan pastry house is now offering a special pastry class with their executive pastry chef at their SoHo location, where anyone can learn how to make an ispahan, and other classic French pastries.

The ispahan is a rose-flavored macaron with rose petal and lychee cream, topped with deliciously fresh raspberries. In other words, heaven in your mouth. The class–which is offered for both children and adults–is one hour long and it includes a glass of champagne (for mom and dad), or a virgin cocktail for the kids.

With step-by-step instruction and the opportunity to mix your own ingredients, you will leave Ladurée with a new dish in your recipe book to make at any time. It’s great for aspiring kid chefs and pastry-loving adults, so bring the whole family for a classic culinary class, then take home a complimentary gift box of macarons along with your new-found cooking skills.

The class is $200 for adults and $150 for children, so it’s great for a special occasions, birthdays, anniversaries, and holidays. Whether you always cook with your kids, or baking is a strange word to them, this class will jump start a lifelong love of baking. Plus, included in the price is an afternoon of high tea in one of Ladurée’s three dinning rooms or outdoor garden.

Since coming to America from its Paris home, Ladurée has wowed New York families with their delicious desserts and appetizing breakfasts. Their Soho location is new in 2016 after their first store in New York simply had too long of a line!
