Pastry Week is your excuse to toss on your apron, try something new, and discover just how do-able French pastry can be! We’ll make a fabulous Gâteau Breton, a butter cookie cake from Brittany, with homemade salted caramel sauce, practice piping, learn how to scale your favorite recipes, play with natural food coloring, and so much more.
Live classes twice every day at 1 PM & 6 PM EST. Pick and choose which classes you join! Can’t make either time? Every session is recorded, so you never miss a bake.
I created Pastry Week to give you a real taste of Le Baking Club, our baking membership, before enrollment opens for the one time each year in September.
Whether you’re newer to French pastry or you’ve got a few ganaches under your belt, come ready to learn, experiment, and most importantly, have FUN!
Ready to go beyond your usual bakes and create something beautiful, impressive, and very French from your own kitchen?
A virtual week of live baking, new recipes, special guests, and plenty of reasons to toss on your apron and make something fabulous from your own kitchen.
We’ll start with a silky salted caramel sauce, then use it to assemble a beautiful Gâteau Breton together.
PLUS you’ll get a Beyond the Cake guide with more filling ideas, individual cookie versions, and ways to use the recipe as a base for other bakes.
Learn how to scale recipes up or down, join a fun, low-pressure piping class, and get downloadable guides you can keep using long after Pastry Week ends.
Join Molly live online almost every day to learn, ask questions, and bake together. Can’t make a session live? Catch the replay when it works for you.
Come for one fun week of baking — leave with techniques you’ll use again and again.
Bake along live, catch the replays when you need them, and walk away with new skills, new recipes, and a whole lot more confidence.

Bonjour! I’m Molly, an American pastry chef living in Versailles, France. In 2013, I left my marketing career to pursue my passion for baking, earning my Pastry Certification at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris. I worked in French pâtisseries, bakeries in the US, a château in the South of France, and a Parisian cooking school before shifting to teaching.
By 2019, teaching French pastry became my full-time job, blending my American background with professional French training. I specialize in helping home bakers make pâtisserie-level pastries with accessible techniques and ingredients, and showing you just how do-able French pastry can be!
I want Pastry Week to feel like the most fun week you could have in your kitchen.
We’ll make something fabulous, play with new techniques, learn from special guests, and show you just how do-able French pastry can be.
Whether you’re brand new to French pastry or you’ve got a few ganaches under your belt, toss on your apron and come have a ball baking with us!
You’ll discover just how do-able French pastry can be while trying new recipes, practicing new techniques, and having a BALL in your kitchen! By the end, you’ll be able to:
Absolutely! Whether you’re newer to French pastry or you’ve got a few ganaches under your belt, you’re welcome. I’ll break everything down to make French pastry approachable, accessible, and fun.
Yes! There are live virtual sessions on Zoom almost every day from September 13-20, so you can bake, learn, and join in from your own kitchen. We start at 1 pm EST / 12 pm CST / 11 am MST / 10 am PST / 7 pm Paris.
No worries! Most sessions will have a replay at 6 pm EST with Molly in the chat answering any questions, so you can still follow along if you can’t make the original time. You will also have access to the replays until September 24th.
Not at all! Bake as much or as little as you’d like. Pick the sessions that sound fun to you, or join us for the whole week.
No fancy pastry school setup required! Pastry Week is designed for home bakers baking from their own kitchens.
Completely online! You can join virtually from wherever you are.
Pastry Week is $15 for non-members. Current Le Baking Club members can join at no extra cost.
You’ll have access to the Pastry Week Facebook group and class replays through September 24, giving you plenty of time to catch up. All recipes and downloadable guides are yours to save or print.
