Cooking Class - 4-Day Foodie Fun Kids: Baking Skills

What You’ll Do

Empower your child's culinary prowess and equip them with new skills with this immersive experience.

Children 7-11 will delight in these hands-on summer cooking classes taught by an expert chef. This particular workshop focuses on the art and science of baking and these tiny chefs will work their way through measuring and mixing up doughs and kneading to develop the gluten structure, flipping crГЄpes and decorating cakes with homemade frosting and delicate lines of royal icing for expert designs. After creating a bounty of patisserie delights, participants will take home a graduation certificate and printed menu to commemorate their successful bakes.

Classes typically run for two to two and a half hours, unless specified otherwise. Group work is a key component; kids can expect to collaborate with four other students. The class involves standing, cooking and active participation throughout. Comfortable, closed-toe shoes are required and long hair should be securely tied back for safety. Please note that these are drop-off classes.В Parents do not stay during the classes.

My husband and I recently attended a cooking class led by Chef Justin, and while we appreciated his wide knowledge and the overall enjoyment of the class, we left feeling disappointed for a few reasons. First, we found it frustrating that we had to share our cooking table with other participants. This made it challenging to fully engage in the cooking process. Additionally, we were only given the opportunity to make one pasta dough collectively, which didn’t allow each of us to have our own hands-on experience. We believe that having individual stations would greatly enhance the learning process. Moreover, much of the food, like sauces, was pre-prepared by the chef. While we enjoyed learning about the techniques, we missed out on the practical experience of cooking those items ourselves. It felt more like a demonstration rather than an interactive cooking class. Overall, while we appreciated Chef Justin’s expertise, the format of the class didn’t meet our expectations for a hands-on experience. We hope future classes will offer more opportunities for individual participation and cooking.
