Thank you for the lovely feedback, Gaelle! Dealing with a heat wave during a patisserie class is definitely a challenge, but I'm so glad you enjoyed the session and loved your final creations. It was a pleasure baking with you and I hope to welcome you back to the kitchen again soon! x
Extraordinary cooking class!
We had an incredible cooking class with Valeria! All the ingredients and equipment was immaturely organised for us in advance and Valeria was a fantastic teacher! Everything we made was delicious and there was plenty to take home. Would highly recommend this and we plan to go again soon!

Thank you so much for the lovely review, Kitty! I had such a fantastic morning baking with you all and I'm so glad you enjoyed the recipes and the extra treats to take home. You all did an amazing job with your bakes! I'm already looking forward to our next class together. See you again soon! x
An amazing class!
My friend and I had a lovely afternoon learning French patisserie at the Sweet Bit. Valeria is very calm and knowledgeable and made everything seem so easy, giving lots helpful tips along the way. By the end of the morning we had all made choux and short crust pastry and produced amazing profiteroles and a beautiful fruit tart. The class is very relaxed and I didn't feel rushed at any point. I would love to do another in the future and would highly recommend The Sweet Bit. Thank you again Valeria! x

Such a lovely experience!
Such a lovely, fun activity to do on the weekend! I booked for myself and for my friend, for her birthday present and we both had a great time with Valeria. Valeria is super friendly and knowledgeable, and it was great to cook and eat together at the end. Thanks so much Valeria, and I’ll be sure to book for another different class!

A fun baking afternoon
My daughter and I had a really fun afternoon baking profiteroles and a fruit tart each. We made both shortcrust and choux pastries and a crème patissière. Valeria was amazing and demonstrated everything step by step and helped us when we needed it. The pastries are delicious. A highly recommended course

Today’s macarons training was a wonderful experience. The time was spent very pleasantly, with lots of useful knowledge gained. Most importantly, the macarons baking techniques were clearly and thoroughly explained. The teacher Valeria, as always, was very kind, supportive, and helpful throughout the entire session.

Hi Ernesta,
Thank you so much for coming back for another class! It was such a pleasure to have you in the kitchen again. I’m thrilled to hear that you found the macaron techniques easy to follow—they can be tricky, but you did a wonderful job. And thanks for your kind words about my teaching style; I always strive to create a supportive environment for my students and it's great to hear that I managed to achieve my goal. Happy baking! xx
This class was fantastic
This class was fantastic, a 10/10 experience. Valeria was incredible: patient, attentive, and never made us feel rushed. She offered help whenever we needed it while still giving us the freedom to work independently. The desserts turned out amazing, and we had plenty to take home. I can’t wait to return for one of her other classes!

Valeria fostered a wonderfully warm and inviting atmosphere, with a cosy setup that felt more like a gathering of friends than a formal class. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with a delightful spread of homemade madeleines and a carefully chosen selection of teas and coffees, setting a relaxed and cheerful tone for the day.
Before the lesson began, Valeria provided a clear and engaging overview of the session, outlining the techniques we’d be learning and the pastries we’d be creating. The class was thoughtfully structured, striking a perfect balance between demonstration and hands-on practice. We explored a range of pastry types—from rich, buttery shortcrust to the light and airy choux pastry—each introduced with expert guidance. Valeria shared invaluable tips on everything from achieving the right dough consistency to mastering baking temperatures and timings.
Throughout the session, she was attentive and encouraging, offering personalised advice and answering questions with patience and enthusiasm. We also had the opportunity to experiment with seasonal fillings and decorative finishes, which added a creative and playful element to the experience.
I thoroughly enjoyed the day—not only did I gain practical skills and newfound confidence in pastry-making, but I also appreciated the thoughtful touches and genuine hospitality that made the experience truly memorable.

Dear Anna,
thank you so much for this incredibly thoughtful and detailed review - this is what makes it all worthwhile! I'm so happy to hear that all the little touches, from the madeleines and tea to the balance of demonstration and hands-on practice, made the experience feel more like a fun gathering of friends than a formal class. That's exactly the atmosphere I strive to create.
I'm glad to know that you enjoyed the creative elements and left with both practical skills and a newfound confidence in your baking.
I really appreciate you sharing your experience, and I truly hope to see you back in the kitchen again soon! x

A wonderful first time baking class experience
A great, easy going, inspiring French patisserie class. Valeria herself is quite cool and calm, knowledgeable, and seems to have the patience of a saint. This was a totally enjoyable few hours that I'll recommend to anyone wishing to take their first steps into baking!

French patisserie class
This class was small and very homely, taking place in Valeria's flat. I learned a lot and how to make shortcrust and choux pastry, and this helped my confidence to bake more generally. I also picked up a few tips on baking techniques. A highly recommended experience.

Happiness is handmade... especially when it's pasta
I learned so much today! I've tried making pasta a few times before, but could never quite get it right.
That all changed thanks to The Sweet Bit and her wonderful, intimate pasta-making class 👩🍳✨ Her guidance made everything feel approachable and fun—she broke it down so simply that, by the end, I felt like a pro! 💪🍴
Valeria was warm, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable 🧡 The class was the perfect mix of demonstration and hands-on experience, and the pasta we made? Absolutely delicious 🤌😋
I’m genuinely inspired to never buy shop bought pasta again 🙅♀️🍝
I can't recommend this class enough! Thank you so much for having us—already looking forward to booking the next one! 🥰🍷👩🍳

Fantastic class
We absolutely loved Valeria’s patisserie class. We had so much fun, and we all learnt a lot. We were so impressed with the delicious cakes we made- we never thought we could make these things, but with Valeria’s in depth knowledge and supportive guidance we were able to pick up new skills and gain in confidence. The class was very well organised and perfectly paced, the ingredients, equipment and location were all great. We all had a lot of fun and sincerely hope to book another of Valeria’s classes soon.
