From Orchard to Oven: Dare to Pear

Sweet, savory, and straight from the orchard—this baking class is a celebration of fall’s most elegant fruit: the pear.

Join us in this hands-on follow-up to our popular Peaches and Apples workshop, where we’ll explore two deliciously different ways to bake with pears:

🍰 Pear Upside Down Cake – Tender, golden, and bursting with warm spice, this classic dessert highlights ripe pears in the most beautiful (and impressive) way. You’ll learn the secrets to perfect caramelization, even layering, and a soft crumb every time.

🧀 Baked Brie with Caramelized Pears – A rich and rustic appetizer that feels gourmet but comes together easily. You’ll master how to balance sweet and savory, and how to create a show-stopping baked brie that’s perfect for fall gatherings, holiday tables, or cozy nights in.

Whether you’re a seasoned home baker or just getting started, this class is all about comfort baking, simple techniques, and seasonal inspiration. Come ready to roll up your sleeves, laugh, learn, and leave with full hearts (and full plates).
