Made with love

You can easily see the love and passion she has for her hometown and the way she expresses it through her desserts. So happy she is here. I'm looking forward for more of her classes.

Smilyana Simeonova

I loved how unique this class is!

Learn a lot of things about whipped ganache, glaze and Algerian flavors. Can’t wait to make the Parisian flan recipe. All the flavor combinations used in the desserts are very different from what I’m used to work with but can wait to try them.

Dalimar Vega
