It was great working with Chef Sharon. Chocolates turned out much better than I was anticipating just looking at the recipe and because I could not get all of them.

Sharon is great! She shared lots of information about the process of making chocolate so we have ideas for the future, and had plenty of substitutions so it was accessible to everybody. The length of the class and number of recipes were also perfect.

This is our second class with Chef Sharon, and she is FABULOUS. She is friendly, bubbly and full of knowledge that she imparts throughout the class — about the importance of choosing quality ingredients, the reasons for the cooking steps, etc. Sharon is very welcoming to all of the participants, and encourages questions throughout the class. (Plus, the ice cream we made was delish!) We're signing up for another class with her now. :)

My booking experience was easy and quick. I found Chef Sharon very easy to follow and she shares her enthusiasm for cooking and for the recipe choices as well! Her enthusiasm is contagious! She presents with confidence and ease and is great about encouraging (and answering!) questions as well. She checks in with each guest often and is very interactive. Before her class, I was intimidated with the thought of making ice cream. By the time class was not even half way though, I was asking questions about substitution and sharing some creative ideas with her as well. She recommends which pots and ingredients to use and what NOT to use and explains the reasons why! Which I found extremely helpful and will use this knowledge in the future for other foods I cook too. She gave us many tips on the ingredients we were using, ones which work better than others and also explained why. Ie., you can use corn syrup to lessen the likelihood of crystallization when making caramel; but, you do not have to use the corn syrup at all if you don’t want to! If you don’t use it, your caramel very well might crystallize. This is especially helpful for first time chefs trying their hand at the process of making caramel for the very first time! Chef Sharon also explained about how the cold milk could harden the caramel too quickly. So, taking the chill off by microwaving for half a minute or waiting for it to get to room temperature were both options of our own choice. Then, she explained that the butter could be added cold, and that there was an option of no butter, which would change the consistency of the caramel. Overall, I feel Chef Sharon is one of the very best Chefs I have had a class with! I felt like I was in the kitchen cooking with her! She is warm and bubbly and imparts her own wisdom in cooking! I feel like anything is within my grasp when cooking with her! Chef Sharon, with CocuSocial, is definitely in my upcoming event plans!!!

I thought Sharon was well educated but was disappointed that she jumped around so much that we didn't know which recipe we were working on at any time. Also, the recipes were incorrect. It looks like she updated them since the class but they are different than what was presented in the class. i.e. The peppermint bark is now just all chocolate and in the class it was white and dark chocolate. Makes for repeating the recipe on my own difficult.

When you put together in one kitchen great ingredients, an amazing chef and a team that wants to learn and create, you easily get delicious food and an amazing evening. Chef Sharon is experienced, loves to create and even more important, loves to teach. Everything is done with tons of patience and with simple explanations. I would have put some pictures, but nothing was left until I took out the camera :) Thank you for a great session! Definitely waiting for the next one.
