  • Hands-On Vegan Desserts

    Reviewed by Jae W. on 8/29/2022
    I took the vegan desserts course here and it was a wonderful experience. Unlike other "hands-on" cooking studios, I learned a lot in this class and was able to actually BE hands-on with the ingredients. The instructors were patient, knowledgeable, and most importantly, were very open about the fact that we were all learning some new things together. It's a shame there weren't more folks in the class, I'd love to do more vegan cooking classes!

  • Hands-On Vegan Desserts

    Reviewed by Andrew D. on 6/26/2017
    This class was so fun and everything we made was delicious. 3 recipes in 3 hours, and so many leftovers to take home! Expect to sample a lot!! Most of the basic ingredients were already prepared and portioned and the only complaint I have is that because we made so many items I can't remember all of the steps for each. But the recipes were provided for us to take home. Overall really great. Highly recommend!
