Home Cooking Academy

06/02/2026

Since school will soon be out for the summer, here is some additional info involving kids in the kitchen for summer classes.

Below is a list of prices for children and youth, accompanied by an adult.

I also have other info listed for company "team building", group celebrations and other ideas.

Here are a few reminders of other options and classes offered by Home Cooking Academy.

Gift certificates available – for the “Foodie” in your life, or for someone that enjoys group activities and socializing.

Children’s prices, I have several requests for this. Children, ages 7-11 with an adult $20.00

Children, ages 12-15 with an adult $30.00

Children’s birthday parties (limited group size of 6-7 plus one adult). $30.00 per person

Choice of “kid friendly” recipe for the party.
Group plays “food Trivia” – questions geared towards age group. Earn chips to go to the “Plinko Board” for prizes. Complimentary soda and water, and an additional sweet treat to be shared with the group (Not a cake but something fun and enjoyable to eat) plus we eat what is made in class. The “birthday person” gets to spin the “event wheel” for a possible free class, cookbook or additional discounts on future classes. Classes/parties are 2-3 hours long.

Private groups: Book the date, time and the class of your choice if you have a group size of 4-7 adults. Contact me for a list of classes.

This is a great way to celebrate a birthday or anniversary, the guest of honor gets to spin the “event wheel” for a possible free class, discounts on a future class or a free cookbook.

Not celebrating a particular event? Then just get a group of friends or family together (group size 4-7) to enjoy some fun socializing, and learn something new at the same time! Don’t forget, we always eat what we prepare in class. All classes are 2-3 hours long.

Small companies and departments. Listen up! Treat your employees to an activity outside of the work environment. Home Cooking Academy classes are great for “team building”, motivating and a morale “pick me up” or just let them know that they are appreciated. Class size limited to a group of 6-7.

Classes are $49.00 per person and ask how you can receive a 10% discount. If interested in signing up for a class or booking a private group or kids class/party, contact me on messenger through Facebook.

“Tried and True Tuesday”

Hints and Hacks for your Kitchen

June 2, 2026

Do you have kids that like to help in the kitchen? Here is a perfect way for them to get involved.

Did you know you can make whipped cream in a jar? Just pour in the amount of heavy whipping cream that you would like into a glass jar with a cover and let them shake it until it’s the consistency that you want. Add the sugar just at the end if you are sweetening it and give it a few shakes to dissolve.

Make sure you stop the kids from shaking it too long or you will have fresh BUTTER! This is also a great trick if you don’t have access to a hand mixer or on a camping trip.

This Monday June 1st 6PM, it’s Fresh Ravioli class at Home Cooking Academy!

If you’ve ever thought that this was too difficult to learn and make - guess again!

We will be making 2 varieties. Spinach and cheese and mushroom. The spinach and cheese will be served with a tomato cream sauce and the mushroom will be served with Alfredo sauce. You will learn how to make the sauces too!

The end result is - they will turn out “picture perfect”, tender and delicious!

Come to a class and “step up” your pasta making skills!

Classes are $49.00 per person and ask how you can receive a 10% discount. Classes are so much more then just learning a new skill, lots of other fun in store too! Come and find out for yourself or better yet, ask others that have already attended a class.

If interested in signing up for this class or any others, contact me on messenger through Facebook. Check out my June class schedule, 11 classes this month.

“Tried and True Tuesday”

Hints and Hacks for your Kitchen

May 27, 2026

It’s flea market and garage sale time! If you don’t already have one, time to look for one. I’m talking about a cast iron frying pan. Maybe you have one collecting dust in the back of your cabinet or maybe grandma gave you one and you just don’t know of all the possibilities and uses for it. If you see one at a sale, think about purchasing one. There are endless opportunities to use one. Everyone seems to be baking bread these days, regular or sourdough, it doesn’t matter. Cast iron is great for baking bread. Making homemade pizza. Roasting veggies in the oven or on the grill. It makes the BEST homemade hashbrowns. There is something about making brown sugar glazed carrots in a cast iron frying pan. It’s great for cooking on an open flame while camping too. Frying fresh caught fish in one of these is outstanding! Once you have one, they will last forever!

Want to make something fun and different? Come to this Thursday’s class - May 28th at 6PM for Korean Corn Dogs! Nothing like what is offered in stores or at fairs and carnivals. A Korean Corn Dog is half melty cheese and half sausage or hot dog and covered in a yeast dough with an extra layer of various flavors. These are so good!

Come and explore a totally different cuisine!

Learning is always more fun as a group!
