Celebrate strawberry season in this hands-on baking class! Young chefs will begin with a tasting of freshly prepared local strawberries to explore flavor, texture, and ripeness. Participants will learn foundational baking skills as they mix and bake their own mini cakes, whip fresh cream from scratch, and assemble a beautiful spring strawberry dessert using locally grown berries. Along the way, kids will practice measuring, mixing, and kitchen safety, while celebrating one of the sweetest spring harvests. By the end of class, each child will enjoy their dessert and gain new baking confidence to bring home to their own kitchen.
