A flaky, sweet, buttery crust can separate a professional tart from an amateur one - and after this class, your tarts will certainly stand out from the rest! Let experienced ICE pastry chefs guide you through creating the perfect tart crust from scratch. Learn the same techniques used by ICE career pastry graduates as you make and work with pâte sucrée, then combine it with pastry cream and fresh fruit toppings to make tarts that will impress guests, family and friends alike. We'll make: pâte sucrée; pastry cream; and fresh fruit toppings.
You will work in teams to execute the class menu. At the end of class, participants gather to enjoy the food they have prepared. Wine is served with meals in most classes. All class menus are subject to change. While a snack platter is offered in both morning and evening classes, you may want to consider a light snack before joining us for class. Students are encouraged to bring a light lunch or dinner to all pastry classes.

The popularity of Korean BBQ is growing, fueled by the DIY aspect of making dinner with friends and family and eating as you cook. You don’t have to have a table with a built-in grill to enjoy your favorite flavor-packed grilled meats at home: grill pans on your stove or an outdoor grill are great stand-ins. Your menu starts with gyeran jjim (steamed egg custard); then moves to the grilling of sokalbi gui (beef short ribs) and samgyeopsal (pork belly) and assorted banchan (spicy vegetable side dishes) complete the meal.
