There is one window every summer when Georgia peaches are at their absolute peak — fragrant, juicy, and impossibly sweet — and this class is built around it. Join Chef Michelle Pellegri, creative owner of Roswell Baking Company, for an immersive, hands-on evening dedicated entirely to the freestone peach at the height of its season, explored through both stunning dessert bakes and vibrant savory applications.
This is the class for home cooks who want to move beyond the recipe box and truly understand the art of balancing sweet and savory profiles with peak-season fruit. Chef Michelle will guide you through fresh pastry technique, tender cake structure, and the kind of seasonal cooking that makes the most of summer's most beloved ingredient while it lasts. Come July, there is no better place to be.
What's on the Menu:
- Bellini — Peach & Prosecco Cocktail: The evening opens on a celebratory note with Italy's most iconic summer cocktail. Fresh peach purée meets chilled Prosecco in a drink that is as effortless as it is elegant — and the perfect introduction to an evening built around one extraordinary fruit.
- Peach Pie with All-Butter Flaky Pie Crust: The crown jewel of the American summer table. Chef Michelle walks you through the art of building a truly great all-butter pie crust from scratch — tender, flaky, and deeply flavorful — filled with peak-season freestone peaches that need nothing more than a little sugar and spice to shine.
- Peach, Vanilla Bean & Citrus Cake: Delicate, aromatic, and beautifully balanced, this cake showcases Chef Michelle's pastry expertise at its finest. You'll learn the techniques behind an incredibly tender cake structure while exploring how vanilla bean and bright citrus elevate fresh peach into something truly sophisticated.
- Peach & Tomato Panzanella Salad with Crispy Prosciutto: The savory showstopper of the evening. Sweet freestone peaches and ripe summer tomatoes come together in a rustic Tuscan bread salad, elevated with shatteringly crisp prosciutto and a vibrant vinaigrette. A stunning reminder that the best peach dishes aren't always dessert.
Whether you're a passionate home baker, a seasonal cooking enthusiast, or simply someone who believes that peak peach season deserves to be celebrated properly, this class delivers the techniques, the recipes, and the inspiration to make the most of summer's finest fruit.
