What to expect

Guests will be welcomed into a professional kitchen space overlooking the Douro River for a relaxed pastry and wine experience. The experience takes place in a dedicated culinary setting designed for small groups and hands-on baking.

We will begin with a short introduction to éclairs and the ingredients we will use. Guests will learn how to prepare pastry cream, understand the basics of choux pastry, and discover how éclairs are traditionally filled and glazed.

While the éclairs bake and cool, guests can relax, enjoy local wine, and take in the beautiful Douro views in a warm and intimate atmosphere.
