WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THESE Cooking Classes in Phoenix
08/16/2025
My wife and I had a wonderful time at this class. Neither of us had ever made pastry from scratch before, but Elena broke down the process while explaining the theory behind each step in a way that made it feel simple and achievable. Everything we made tasted incredible, and we took away enough knowledge that we feel pretty confident we could make our own pastry at home now.

Chef Elena was fantastic! She explained the cooking processes clearly and was very personable and fun! I highly recommend you take one of her classes.

Chef Elena's bread class was fantastic! My daughter and I attended while I was in town visiting for a fun, hands on adventure. Chef Elena did a great job with explaining the details of each process, and the important tips to remember. The class was engaging and very collaborative which allowed everyone to partake in the process of bread making. Most importantly... the bread was amazing and so delicious - yet easy enough for us to feel confident to go home and try baking it ourselves.

Elena did a great job. We learned some tips and the recipes were scrumptious. I would recommend her for future classes.
