About Kayleigh

I am a professional pastry chef and bakery manager based in Gauteng.

I bake croissants, artisan breads (700g rustic loaves, sourdough, baguettes), cakes and custards every single day for customers. I teach exactly what I sell - no theory from books.

I have 10+ years experience as a pastry chef working with laminated doughs, sourdough starters, chiffon cakes and professional pastry creams.

Why learn with me?

- I am a working chef, not a home baker. I know why croissants leak butter in SA heat and how to fix it.
- I have made every mistake - over-proofed, split custards, sunken cakes - so you don't have to.
- I teach in a simple, practical way. No fancy French terms without explanation.

I am now offering my knowledge ONLINE for people who can't come to my bakery. Whether you want to bake for family, start a side hustle, or upskill for a restaurant job, I will teach you professional techniques that work in a home kitchen.

I am patient, friendly, and I stay on the call until your bake is right.

Let's bake together.

All languages in which the lesson is available :

English

My lessons are 100% ONLINE via Zoom/Google Meet/WhatsApp video call. You bake in your own kitchen, I guide you live step-by-step.

80% hands-on, 20% science - I explain WHY your dough or custard or cake behaves the way it does, so you can fix it yourself next time.

Lesson structure:

1. BEFORE: I send you a shopping list + equipment list + my personal recipes 3 days before

2. DURING: Live on camera. We bake together. I watch your dough, your custard temperature, your folding technique and correct you in real time. Small details matter.

3. AFTER: You get 7 days WhatsApp support. If your croissant doesn't flake or bread doesn't rise after class, send me a video and I will troubleshoot.

What I teach:

CROISSANTS & LAMINATED DOUGH: Détrempe, beurrage, turns, handling butter in SA heat, proofing, baking for honeycomb crumb. This is a 2-day course (2 x 2 hours).

BREADS & SOURDOUGH: Rustic 700g loaves, baguettes, ciabatta, sourdough starter care. How to get crusty outside, soft inside without a pro oven.

CAKES: Stable chiffon cakes that don't sink in SA humidity, red velvet, vanilla, chocolate sponge. Levelling, layering, crumb coating.

CUSTARDS: Pastry cream, crème pâtissière, custard slices, diplomat cream - smooth creams that don't split or go watery
