Grab your friend, lover, neighbor, secret crush, mama, papa... and come make pastry with us!
In this class with Ashley, you’ll dive into what makes our flours unique through a fun pastry experience! Ashley will teach you how to make your own choux pastry from scratch, and guide you through how to choose the right flour for this delectable pastry. Choux is made using a unique pastry technique involving a cooking process (among other things) that yields a supremely tender and delectable dough. You will learn how to make and utilize choux pastry in both sweet and savory applications - after this class, you'll be ready to make sweet èclairs & profiteroles for your honey, or cheesy, herby, savory gougères as the ultimate party snack.
This class is recommended for those with moderate baking and/or pastry experience - beginners are welcome, but expect to learn a LOT and don't be afraid to ask questions! This class is BYOB for participants 21+, so bring your favorite beverage (might we suggest a brunchy mimosa? We'll supply the OJ!) We ask that all class participants are 13 and up.
Things to look forward to:
- Learn the difference between stone-milled and store-bought flours
- Have an opportunity to work with our own fresh flours, stone-milled right here at Barton Springs Mill
- Savory & Sweet Choux pastry confections! Cheese gougères, decadent èclairs, and fruity profiteroles!

- Purchase BSM products at a special one-time discount
