  • I want to thank the school staff for such a fantastic macaron class! I enjoyed every minute of it! The expertise of trainer was highly appreciated! I didn’t know I could make them and now I’m preparing it for my family. I look forward to continue with the classes!

  • Before attending Tante Marie, I was already a passionate cook. I took this course with the purpose of learning the basics, but what I got was a whole bunch more like true lifelong friends. Currently, I am writing this from Portofino, Italy where I’m the head chef of a yacht. Would I have gotten here without going to Tante Marie? Maybe, but with them and the training, I certainly made it quicker.
