Baking Workshops at Fez Cooking School

Fez, spiritual capital of Morocco, is also the birthplace to the most refined and diverse cuisine. So, where better to venture than to the source itself for to discover Morocco through its food? Lift the lid on the Moroccan way of life, experiencing hands on workshops in a meticulously restored palace in the Medina, and rounding off the experience with a high tea in the gardens enjoying the pastries you have created.

This is a journey with a difference, a cultural exchange that goes well beyond the list of ingredients or a visit to the tourist sights.

Discover the authentic Moroccan way of life and sign up for a unique experience in the art of baking.

The activity starts at 3pm: prepped up with your apron and efficient recipe clipboard, hands washed and sleeves rolled up, you’re stuck into kneading and mixing some of the basic breads.

The first stage of the course is dedicated to the bakery. Once the bread is prepared, you will be accompanied to the communal oven. Most homes are not equipped and bring their daily bread in the district communal oven for cooking.

Back to the Palace for the pastry part. Once the pastries have been made, they are cooked at the Fez Cooking School. During this time, you’ll go back to the communal oven to pick up your bread. Return to the Palace with your fresh bread and get ready for the tea ceremony.

Treat yourself to a well deserved Moroccan tea and sweat delicacies by the fountain!
