We arrived to make a basic layer cake, and we left with a spectacular dessert. It was fun to make, interesting, but a bit challenging with his French accent. Overall, an enjoyable cooking class!

Jean Yves is no doubt a master at his craft. He is extremely knowledgable about french pastries, especially sugar. I asked several questions about eggs and whatever intimidated me about pastries and he delivered clear and scientifically-backed answers which I will forever carry with me on my baking journey. I enjoyed the chocolate flourless cake so much that I'm trying it on my own now!

Chef Jean Yves responded to me quickly and kept me informed about the status of the class. Unfortunately, the class had to be cancelled because there weren't any other students that signed up. He requested that I join a later class. But I am not able to do that as I am in San Francisco for only a few days on a business trip with my husband. The cost of the class was removed from my account and I haven't seen a refund to my account yet.

This was a birthday present for my fiancee, she loves baking and creating a layer cake would add a new level to her baking. Chef Jean Yves exceeded all expections. He brings 46 years of experience where it's not just about the recipe and measurements but technique and feeling. He is truly a gem!

Good Experience. Loved the small size class- we were only 3. even though it was an observation class we got to do some stuff. Now need to try at home.

Bake a Bûche de Noël
with Chef Jean Yves
in San Francisco (Richmond District)
Chef Jean Yves was very entertaining, knowledgeable, and attentive to detail. He explained several baking techniques and the reasons behind them. He taught us with humor, which made the class so much fun! Not only did we learn how to make a Bûche de Noël, we also learned how to make a cake carrier from a cardboard box. I would definitely take a class from him again.

My son and I had a great time with Chef Yves. Loved meeting in his home - very personal. He gave us lots of opportunities to help, answered a thousand questions, taught us cool techniques, and the cake we made was incredible. Plus, we loved all his stories. You’ll have a great time!

Great learning experience for home baking with a professional teacher. The chef's funny and approachable, demystifies French baking with step by step explainations and had us help along the way. We also got to eat the delicious product and take a slice home for our family!

My daughter and I had a first rate experience baking with Chef Jean Yves. Not only is he an expert at his craft, but he is engaging and funny too. We learned some valuable techniques we can use at home when working with chocolate and sponge cake. I would highly recommend the experience.
