Bespoke Workshop
Your workshop, your way.
Every great workshop starts with a conversation. Tell me what you want to create, who you are gathering, and when. I will design a session built entirely around you.
No two workshops at VLJ Pastry are the same. Whether you dream of mastering a specific French classic, want to celebrate a birthday with something truly memorable, or are looking for a creative team experience, each session is crafted to fit your group, your goals, and your date.
You choose the pastry. I bring the expertise, the ingredients, and the joy of doing it together.

How it works
01 Tell me your vision : Fill in the quote form with your occasion, preferred dates, group size, and any pastry you have in mind.
02 We design the session together: I will come back to you with a tailored proposal : the recipe, the format, the location, and a personalised quote. We refine it until it feels just right.
03 We create, together: On the day, everything is prepared and ready. You simply show up, roll up your sleeves, and enjoy the experience. The workshop include a tasting break midway, because that is non-negotiable.
04 You leave with more than a recipe: Every participant takes home their creations, the techniques behind them, and the confidence to recreate French magic in their own kitchen.
