If you missed Chef Alex in February, we have managed to get him back for an encore performance to teach a one off Mexican Cookie class! A California native, a former Marine, a passionate Master Baker, trained culinary chef, and a professional bread scientist, Alex has a passion for traditional Mexican baking and is going to share favorite cookie recipes in his Polvorones & Galletas Class.

Polvorones & Galletas class will cover;

• Polvoron de Canela (cinnamon powder cookie)

• Polvoron de Chocolate (chocolate powder cookie)

• Galleta Tri-color - (tricolor butter cookie)

• Polvoron de Almendras (almond powder cookie)

• Polvoron de Boda (Mexican Wedding powder cookie)

• Galleta de Molde (Vanilla cut-out cookie)

Polvoron de Canela, a cinnamon powdered cookie that holds a special place in history as one of the earliest recipes introduced during the Spanish conquest. Its delicate texture and warm, spicy flavor evoke memories of Moorish and Basque bakers who brought their expertise to Mexico, where it was further refined with French influence.

Polvorón de Chocolate, a decadent variation infused with the rich flavors of cocoa powder. Polvorón de Boda, also known as the Mexican wedding cookie. With its roots tracing back to the Russian tea cookie, this delicate butter cookie infused with toasted walnuts and lemon zest symbolizes purity and celebration. The Polvorón de Almendra, substituting walnuts with toasted almond pieces and infusing it with almond emulsion for a modern twist.

Payasos or clown cookies in Spanish, featuring layers of pink, chocolate, and plain dough, pay homage to the vibrant colors and festive spirit of Mexican culture.

The Galleta de Molde, an open-face cookie that invites endless possibilities for customization. Topped with chocolate chips, sprinkles, or flake coconut, these delightful cookies showcase the versatility of traditional recipes, allowing bakers to experiment and express their creativity.
The students will take home a variety of celebratory cookies to share with friends and family.

La brioche con la panna a cui nessun romano può rinunciare. It’s a bold statement, but after your first bite, I’m sure you will find it hard to renounce them too.

If you’ve ever visited Rome, you will hopefully have experienced the exquisite cream filled breakfast pastry that is the Maritozzo con la Panna (Maritozzi Buns.)

Maritozzi are fragrant, sweet dough buns flavored with orange zest and cardamon, sliced in half and filled with smooth, fresh whipped cream.  They are a staple in Rome’s pasticcerie, and commonly found during the breakfast hours in coffee bars around the Eternal City.

Join Mary Storey for a wonderful evening recreating these amazing buns. You’ll start by dividing and learning to shape a batch of dough that we’ve prepared for you. While your buns are rising, you’ll make a batch of dough to bring home so you can enjoy even more Marizozzi whenever you like. Next, we’ll bake the buns, and while they are in the oven you’ll make the delicious syrup that the buns are soaked in immediately out of the oven. Finally, you’ll create your cream filling- you can go traditional and use fresh Chantilly Cream (or if you are a bit daring, try Mary’s delicious Mascarpone Cream) and split and fill your buns! Best of all, you’ll get to enjoy Mary’s buns so you can bring all of your beauties home to share with friends and family!

Pan de Muerto, is a fragrant sweet bread that has deep roots to ancient Aztec rituals and Spanish symbolism.

The multi-day holiday, known in Latin America as El Di´a de los Muertos is celebrated on November 1st and 2nd.

Pan de Muerto, meaning bread of the dead in Spanish, is made up using a sweet dough. The buttery dough contains orange peel and additional Agua de Azahar (orange blossom water). The breads are typically made up to represent a tomb or in some cases a corpse; our focus will be the tombs. Tumbas represent the bones and skull of the deceased loved one.
Students will learn about the process and techniques behind Tumbas (tombs), made in different sizes and using different decorating techniques. During the fermentation stage of the yeast-raised dough, students will learn how to make Polvorones de Naranja (orange flavored butter cookies).
