  • I finally had the time to bake some bread and shoot some photos. And what an exceptional model I had for the session…he allowed very few shots, though😅

  • A few pics from today’s French Macarons class. We made a lot of colourful shells, including marbled ones and three different fillings: orange chocolate ganache, salted butter caramel and lemon curd. This lovely bunch put a lot of effort and enthusiasm and the result has been amazing…well done girls!

  • Let’s officially say goodbye to Summer with these lemon curd meringues on shortbread! It’s been a very warm week here in London, but weather is quickly changing and I’m getting ready to welcome Autumn and embrace new projects. And you, are you ready for the new season?

  • A few pics from my Artistic Pasta class last Saturday! We made different colours of pasta dough using natural ingredients and created lots of patterns using herbs to laminate the dough. Everything was turned into delicious filled pasta that this lovely group enjoyed at the end of the class.

  • Just come back from a short trip to Cornwall and managed to bake some bread rolls between one laundry and the other! These are a mix of white strong flour and semola rimacinata, pretty much like the ones I had when I was a child. A drizzle of EVO oil and a pinch of sea salt and they are just perfect!

  • PASTA SUNDAY. Another Sunday, another homemade pasta shape! Made with just semolina flour and water, Trofie are traditional from the region of Liguria. They are perfect with basil pesto, but any other sauce will match perfectly!

Fabulous time! I had a surprise birthday macaroon workshop for the entire family and that was such an enlightening fun!Valeria is a fabulous teacher and a great chef! My daughters (10,10 and 13) were completely engaged in the entire process. The results are delicious and beautiful. Highly recommend for any type of celebration or a family get together.

My class was French Patisserie (my second class with Valeria). Valeria is welcoming and willing to share all her secrets to make a perfect dessert. The lesson was a bit challenging but always fun and engaging and Valeria follows you step by step. At the end of the class I really felt I mastered how to make Financiers, Eclairs and, my beloved, Macarons! 
I actually tried two of the three recipes at home and they came out perfectly! Thank you Valeria!

I took one of Valeria's Baking Foundations Class.I am quite good at cooking, but baking has always been tricky for me- you need to understand the chemistry of the ingredients, learn how to use an oven and baking tools properly.Valeria is an expert baker and guides you through all these little details that make a difference. She helped me overcome a few basic mistakes I was repeatedly making.Her class was also easy to follow and fun at the same time.I highly recommend her classes to everyone, whether you are a complete beginner or you want to fine-tune your baking skills.
