Cooking Club - High School - Smart Sweets - Thursday, February 19th

$0.00

Explore healthier dessert options that keep all the flavour while using more mindful ingredients. Students will make sweet treats naturally sweetened with honey or maple syrup and learn simple ways to lighten up classic desserts. A great class for understanding balance without giving up taste.

Date: Thursday, February 19th

Time: 4:30pm-7:00pm

*While this class is designed for high school–aged students, we also welcome confident Grade 8 participants with some kitchen experience, as well as youth up to age 20. To ensure fun and safety for everyone, it’s important that skill levels remain fairly equivalent. Participants will prepare the dishes together and then sit down to enjoy the food they have made. Each class is led by a professional chef.

*NOTE: These classes are made possible through the generous support of the Huff Family Foundation, the Municipality of Prince Edward, the Stark Family Fund, and The County Foundation. While we are deeply grateful for their contributions, additional funding is still required to ensure the program’s success. The cost to deliver the program is approximately $350 per participant.

Cooking classes have become increasingly popular in recent years, and for good reason. These classes offer numerous benefits that go beyond just learning how to cook. Here are some of the benefits of cooking classes:

  1. Develop life skills: Cooking classes teach participants important life skills, such as following directions, measuring ingredients, and time management. These skills not only help them in the kitchen but also in other aspects of their lives.

  2. Promote healthy eating habits: Cooking classes can encourage participants to try new foods and explore healthier options. They can learn about the importance of using fresh ingredients and making balanced meals.

  3. Boost self-esteem: When kids learn to cook, they have a sense of accomplishment and pride in their creations. They can gain confidence in their abilities and feel a sense of independence.

  4. Encourage creativity: Cooking classes allow participants to experiment with flavours and ingredients, and to create their own unique dishes. This can inspire creativity and a love of cooking.

  5. Provide a fun and educational activity: Cooking classes can be a fun and educational activity for all ages. They can learn about different cultures and cuisines, and the science behind cooking.

Overall, cooking classes for kids are a great way to promote healthy habits, develop life skills, and have fun in the kitchen.
