Meet Your Instructor

Molly Wilkinson, Pastry Chef and Founder of MollyJWilk Pastry

Bonjour! My name's Molly! I'm a pastry chef living in Versailles. In 2013 I left my hometown of Dallas, Texas to change careers and follow my passion by moving to Paris and studying pastry at Le Cordon Bleu. After working at several bakeries in both France and the US, I now teach pastry out of my 18th-century apartment just 5 minutes walk from the Versailles Chateau. I released a cookbook called, French Pastry Made Simple in June 2021. My method is all about making French pastry easy by breaking down recipes and showing you lots of tips and tricks to help any baker achieve extraordinary results.

I'm in the midst of making my first batch ever of croissants right now! The videos are so methodical and engaging. Being able to start and stop along the way to take notes, go try out a technique, or go back to review something is so helpful. It brings the recipe on paper to life and makes what seemed overwhelming immediately accessible. I didn't expect making croissants to be so straightforward but should have known it would be. Because one of Molly's many gifts is how confidence inspiring she is while you're learning something entirely new.

This recipe is a challenge as there are lots of moving pieces. But Molly uncomplicated it by her simple directions and talent for explaining each step thoroughly. Loved the history that comes along with this galette and enjoyed learning how to make the puff pastry.

Testimonials

What they're saying!

Molly's Pastry Courses are Incredible!

by Annette Anderson

Not only does Molly make delicious french pastries easily accessible to the home cook, but she also does it in an extremely organized fashion. NO SURPRISES! The recipes are thorough, with easy to get ingredients, informative instructions, links to helpful tools, and her tips and tricks will get you successfully on your way to making your own french pastries at home! Best investment ever!

I love the online school!

Kedrin Simms Brachman

The videos are easy to understand and the close-ups on some of the technical stuff (like the piping bags) are great. It is like we are cooking with Molly in one of her live classes! I really like how we can watch the video to get a feel for what we need to do in small snippets. For several, I have just watched them first, but will be going back to bake them later. I cannot wait for more of them!

Ooh La La!

Lisa Davis

I discovered French Pastry Made Simple and liked the book. Next came the virtual cooking classes and I loved them. That was followed by the Online Pastry School. Ooh la la. I absolutely love it! Molly takes you through the basics and makes it personable doing things like showing us her tart pan collection. Fun! But, what I really like and appreciate about the course, is that she teaches you how to mix and match the basic recipes to create over 60 pastry creations! I also like that the videos can be watched over and over and there isn't a one week time limit on the recordings. The course is fun, creative and you end up with delicious pastries! I highly recommend it!!

I highly recommend it

Mary W

I'm so happy I enrolled in Molly's pastry school and I highly recommend it! The lessons are a great supplement to her amazing cookbook. Molly is a fantastic instructor. She is very engaging and explains the recipes and steps clearly. Her easy-going manner and helpful tips make the recipes very approachable. I've successfully made macarons, caramel sauce, meringues, and puff pastry based on her lessons and I look forward to trying all of her recipes!
