The chef guides students through making the dough; forming it to filling it to designs for the top and then baking it in class. Learn decorating techniques such as lattice work and other options for decor. Each student will be working with their own dough to create two separate filled tart to take home. Various toppings and ingredients will be provided for students to choose from such as fruit jams and compotes for their filling choice. During class the instructor will prepare a tart with the class as an example and lead a discussion on techniques followed by guidance of how to do lattice work and design work for the top of the tarts. Each student will be making tarts from start to finish in this class. The class will include tastings of a sample tart completed during the class with coffee or beverage as part of the demonstration on finished product.
