  • My 11 year old daughter was born to cook and she had the time of her life!
    She learned a lot of cooking skills, made a ton of great food and played games in the process.
    They also gave her a very nice printed booklet with recipes, and made a wonderful YouTube video of the class.

  • I used them last week for my twins (boy/girl) 9th birthday party. It was fantastic!
    The location, decorations, etc. were all top notch.
    They handled all the details from start to finish (set up and clean up too!)

  • Best summer camp my 8 year old daughter ever had! She's comfortable and confident in the kitchen now,
    either cracking eggs, or rolling cookie dough, or mixing on the side.
    She is always so happy at the end of day talking about what they learned!

    inviting little kitchen, very clean and friendly.

  • I love to cook with my daughter.
    She has taught both my husband and her friends how to cook these dishes.
    Her confidence in the kitchen is astounding.
    This is the ONLY camp that she has asked to repeat next year.
