"I had never taken an online cooking class and I really didn't know what to expect. Sophie did an outstanding job with each of the instruction modules. I thoroughly enjoyed the class and I'm encouraged to continue baking while also trying other German recipes. I feel closer to my mom when I bake German food and Sophie does a great job of walking us through every module and having fun, too!"

"Are you sure I can do this, Sophie?"
I get it and I’ve been there! I perfected my Plunderteig and pastry recipes because it was such an essential part of helping me feel closer to Germany.
Tasting pastries that taste just like from a German bakery is a soothing comfort when Germany is far. And being able to control the ingredients and experiment with different recipes for yourself is even better.

You may NEVER have baked much and don't even know where to start and I will teach you all the ins and outs!
But even if you have made German-style pastries and croissants before and you have struggled with:
- working with yeast
- getting your pastries to be flaky
- getting the authentic taste
- achieving the authentic look
- having the right visuals to help you understand the process
- inconsistent baking results have killed your confidence
Then ‘Plunderteig 101’ is for YOU.
I believe in you and YOU CAN DO THIS!
