The Kougelhopf and Bredele Pastry Workshop is a hands-on baking class in Strasbourg, in the Grand Est region of France, covering two classic Alsatian sweets. Kougelhopf is the fluted ring-shaped yeast cake, traditionally studded with raisins and almonds, and bredele are the small butter biscuits baked across Alsace around Christmas. The listing does not name the operator or the kitchen address, and it does not say how long the provider has been running classes, so visitors should check the booking page for the venue and meeting point. The class lasts nearly 3 hours and follows a fixed schedule: the kougelhopf workshop runs on Fridays from 15:00 to 17:30, while the bredele sessions are held on Saturdays. The listing is valid from 10 January to 30 November 2026. Groups are capped at eight participants, which keeps the class intimate and gives each person time with the instructor. The price starts from €69 (about $79 USD) per person. Because both recipes are baked goods, the class is entirely sweet, with no savoury dishes, and the output is typically a cake or a batch of biscuits to eat or take away; whether participants take their bakes home, taste them on site or receive drinks is not specified in the listing. The language of instruction is also not stated and should be confirmed when booking. Dietary substitutions are not described. Both recipes rely on wheat flour, butter, eggs and often nuts, so visitors with gluten, dairy, egg or nut allergies should contact the provider in advance to ask whether adjustments are possible. The class suits families, couples and visitors who want to learn a regional recipe, and booking early is sensible given the small group size and fixed weekly sessions.
