Cooking Class - 5-Day Foodie Fun Kids: Beginner Baking - Houston

What You’ll Do

Fundamentals of baking for young beginners.

These easy-to-follow classes encourage kids aged 7-11 to explore hands-on baking techniques while learning from a five-star professional chef. Kids discover new skills in the kitchen such as knife safety, using measuring utensils and the proper way to read a recipe all while having a blast. At the end of the 5-day class, participants will go home with a certification of completion and the skills needed to recreate the recipes at home.

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. Parents do not stay during the classes.

This event is suitable for kids aged 7-11

My husband and I enjoyed the evening. The chef made it a fun experience as he was upbeat and friendly. The food was delicious yet I am wondering why the dessert didn’t look like the one pictured on the web page.

Chef Lonnie was fun and informative! It was a lot of fun to get hands-on with the sushi to make veggie hand rolls, cucumber rolls, and tuna rolls. I think a little more structure to get the class's attention would have been helpful, since there was a lot of talking and missed attention at times, requiring Chef to shout over the room. But all in all, a great experience!

Really appreciate teaching the basics (safe and effective way to hold the knife) and trying something knew (pumpkin curry soup)
