Meet Claudia – Your Austrian Pastry Chef & Baking Guide

I’m Claudia Miller, an Austrian pastry chef with 20 years of experience and the founder of Alpin Delights. Baking has been my passion since childhood, inspired by the rich traditions of Austrian pastry-making. I honed my craft in five-star hotels and one of Vienna’s most historic cafés, where I mastered the art of classic Viennese desserts.
Baking isn’t just a profession for me—it’s a way to share traditions, create memories, and bring people together. My husband, an American, and I share a deep love for the Alps, so much so that we chose to say “I do” on the Hochkönig mountain in Salzburg, surrounded by snow in a magical winter wedding. Now, we call Austin, Texas home, where we live with our wonderful little boy.
My mission is to make authentic Austrian baking accessible to home bakers worldwide through live online classes. I believe baking is more than just following a recipe—it’s about mastering techniques, understanding tradition, and creating something truly special.
My signature Sacher Cake Masterclass unveils the secrets of this world-famous dessert, offering a hands-on experience rich in tradition and technique. Whether you're a passionate baker, a European food lover, or someone reconnecting with your heritage, my classes bring Austria’s treasured pastries to life—right in your own kitchen.
Join me, and let’s bake, learn, and indulge in the magic of Austrian pastries together!
