Baking with Honeypie Bakeshop | Chocolate "French Silk" Pies

In this pie lesson led by Honeypie's founder and Chief Executive Pie Officer, Valeri Lucks, we will we learn a shortening-based pastry crust and the how-to's of "blind baking" for the most crisp and flaky crust that holds creamy, dreamy pie fillings. While we learn how to make our own chocolate silk filling while we discuss the history of"French Silk" pie, it's variations and which French Silk inspired Valeri's life-long love of pie. You will go home with one completed 9" pie to share or to keep all to yourself.

Our classes are held at the Honeypie Bakeshop kitchen inside our sister cafe Palomino, this hands-on class will guide you through a variety of different aspects of baking and give you a peek into the life of our bakeshop. Class does have us standing most of the time and working at a table in a professional kitchen. Should you need a seated option for class, please contact us and we can make arrangements.

Ticket for class includes a tap beer, well cocktail, glass of wine, or NA beverage of your choice - all of your ingredients, a printed recipe with instructions, and your finished treats!

Classes are approximately 2.5-3 hours and are limited to 12 people. The Palomino kitchen and bar is open before class and during class serving drinks and our full dinner menu.
