About the Guest Chef: Pastry Chef Mayumi
Specialising in French pastry with an essence of her Japanese origin, Pastry Chef Mayumi creates pastries and desserts with love and truly enjoys sharing her passion with people. Mayumi is well travelled and has lived in several countries to train her palate and skills, working in Japan, France and Singapore with many passionate chefs. She was inspired by Olivier Bajard, a world pastry champion in France and worked with Olivier at his pastry school Ecole Internationale de Patisserie Olivier Bajard.
In Australia, Mayumi has worked at Lake House (2 hats restaurant) in Victoria, Kazuki’s (1 hat restaurant) in Melbourne, The Bathers Pavilion (1 hat restaurant) and currently teaches Pastry at Le Cordon Bleu. She owns a pastry business "Mimi's Pastry" making cakes to order, and event catering. You can find her most Sundays at the Tramsheds grower market.
Mayumi's motto is "Pastries for smiles". Sourcing goods from mostly local farmers, suppliers and her choice of ingredients from Europe and Japan. Always looking for something good for our body, environmentally friendly ingredients are important to Mayumi in making her sweet creations. That is also the reason she only does custom cakes to order to ensure there is no wastage, and her customers get freshly made pastries. It takes time and a lot of effort but this is important for her.
She also supports the charity organisation "Two Good" to donate her cakes regularly to share the love to women who have experienced domestic violence.
She now joins us at VIVE Cooking school to share her love and enjoyment of making these beautiful breads with you.

Hi VIVE Fam,
I need to cancel my class:

Class Name: [Name of Class]
Date: [Class Date]
Number of Tickets: [Number]
Booking Number: #[Booking Number]
Reason: [State the reason]
Thank you.

If we don’t reach that number, we may need to cancel and reschedule the session. But don’t worry, we’ll do our best to let you know as early as possible. If that happens, we’ll issue you a Credit Note, so you can easily rebook for another class.
We focus on connection as much as cooking. You’ll work in small groups with close chef interaction, premium ingredients and professional equipment. People leave with real skills and great memories, enjoying a social, hands-on experience that’s fun, supportive and designed to be recreated at home.
