Looking for the perfect holiday present? Treat someone special to a homemade three course meal that’ll leave a strong impression.

This December 10, Chef C**t Patin will be guiding a class through creating a full Italian meal perfect for date nights, friends, and anyone looking to try their hand at traditional, Italian cuisine. Guests will first ripen their appetites by preparing garlicy, oven-baked Parmesan Focaccia. Then, they’ll indulge in a savory Chicken Marsala paired with Creamy Parmesan Risotto as their main course. Save room for dessert or pack it up to take home as you wind down the evening by layering a Tiramisu cup that perfectly balances the bitterness of espresso and cocoa with a sweet, creamy mascarpone.

Louisiana is beloved by culinary enthusiasts and experts around the world for our cuisine. However, lesser known than our savory gumbos and jambalayas may be a much sweeter dish straight from the heart of New Orleans: the Chantilly Cake.

Join Chef C**t on December 5th to create your own slice of home in this new addition to Chef C**t’s Pastry Techniques series. You’ll first spend the morning learning how to mix and bake a delicious vanilla sponge cake designed to hold moisture without sacrificing the Chantilly’s signature, airy lightness. Between the cake layers, you’ll spread your rich, homemade Chantilly cream and fresh fruit mixture. Next, you’ll create an external finish that is just as tantalizing as the flavors inside as you learn to decorate your cake with your cream and berries. When you’re satisfied with your carefully garnished pastry, enjoy your afternoon with a dessert that represents Louisiana greatness straight from your own two hands.
