Workshops For Individuals

Circular Experience

For individuals curious to learn about our unique circular recipe development process.

At Baking Lab, we try to look at ingredients in a more fundamental way, like notes and chords on a music sheet.

You will be invited to start by making one of our Baking Lab Specials: a croissant pudding, a quiche, a batch of cookies, a fermented drink… learning to understand how the various ingredients respond to each other, how they complement flavors and enhance texture of the final product. From there, we will invite you to design your own variation. The bakery will turn into your personal laboratory and playground, while the teacher will turn into a coach at the service of your vision.

The Circular Experience is also suitable for a small group of 4-6 persons.

Learn about:

• Learn the fundamentals of baking by making a Baking Lab recipe
• Design your own variation of a recipe using science and artisanship
• Discover Baking Lab’s Research and Development process

Cost: €95
Duration: 2 hours, 2PM to 4PM
