Book a class for the kids and introduce them to the joys of baking or equip your teens with newfound skills to build their kitchen confidence. Have a special event coming up? There are classes you can check out to celebrate birthdays, anniversaries and more.

What should I expect during a typical class?

In a typical class, you can expect a fun, hands-on experience where the goal is to enjoy learning new skills and rediscover a love for baking. Whether you're revisiting a classic recipe or stepping out of your comfort zone to try something new, classes are designed to be engaging and beginner-friendly. You'll also receive plenty of guidance, so feel free to ask questions and don’t worry if you're not an expert. Ingredients and equipment will be provided — all you have to do is show up eager to craft some delicious bakes! Once your scrumptious creations are ready, you'll have time to enjoy them, savoring every bite of your hard work alongside fellow baking enthusiasts.

What Baking techniques and skills will I master?

When you take baking workshops in Orange County, you’ll pick up useful skills like cake decorating, pastry shaping and perfecting flaky, buttery crusts. You’ll learn how to work with different doughs, balance flavors and create desserts that wouldn’t be out of place at top spots like Portos Bakery or Moulin. Ever wanted to pipe buttercream with a steady hand or bake the perfect soufflé? These classes will show you how. Whether honing your skills is the goal or just having fun, you’ll leave with new baking tricks, baking confidence and, of course, some seriously delicious treats.

What are the benefits of taking a Baking class?

These bakery classes are not only incredibly tasty but also come with plenty of benefits. Aside from inspiring you to dust off your apron and preheat the oven, these classes provide a delicious avenue for connection, fun and the chance to learn valuable baking skills, both fundamental and advanced. You'll have a great time bonding over sweet treats in family-friendly classes, catching up with friends in adult baking sessions and even meeting like-minded bakers during the session. Plus, you’ll explore recipes from different cultures that you can easily bring to life at home and keep the baking fun going long after class has ended.

What types of Baking classes/menus can I choose from?

When it comes to baking classes, you’ll find menus that cater to all kinds of tastes and preferences. Choose from classic options where rustic, homemade bread takes center stage or dive into tantalizing British baking to master scones and sticky toffee pudding. If you're craving something more modern, there are classes focusing on French pastries, macarons and delicate desserts. Want to spend quality time with the family? Look into family-friendly baking options where spring-inspired cupcakes await. There’s a class for every craving, whether you’re into traditional or more adventurous treats.

Where do the classes take place?

You’ll find baking schools scattered all around the city — just pick a location that suits you. You can choose to join a class at the chef's own space or if you prefer, have the class come to you! If the chef comes to your place, they’ll bring everything you need — ingredients, equipment and all the tools to make your baking experience seamless. If you’d rather step out, there are premium third-party venues available in foodie hotspots around town, like Costa Mesa, Irvine and Anaheim. Check the class pages for maps and further details on the location near you that works best for you.
