This session will dive into the fundamentals of executing delicious desserts that are Gluten-Free and Vegan. Dietary restrictions and personal preferences are becoming common. Event planners and chefs are also looking for sustainable elements to incorporate into their events. This class will give an in-depth scientific approach to baking items and how they work based on chemical reactions that aid in the structure and function of the dessert. We will also explore how to use items like aquafaba to make Vegan Meringue as a substitute for egg whites and a secret ingredient that helps minimize the grainy texture in your Gluten-Free baked items.
