We had three cooking camps in July 2024: two Camp Cupcakes for students ages 4-6 and one Samson Cooking School for children ages 7-11.
In our July cupcake camps, we made cupcakes and frosting from scratch. We also made “monster” cupcakes and “monster” art projects. Every Camp Cupcake student receives a custom apron and a Camp Cupcake recipe box complete with recipe cards.
In our Samson Cooking School for Kids, we focused on savory as well as sweet dishes. We made minestroni soup and mac ‘n cheese. We also practiced knife skills in preparing our fruit kabobs.
A delicious time was had by all!
June saw the first Camp Cupcake of summer 2024. This camp taught basic tools and techniques of the kitchen: mixers versus whisks, egg yolks separated from egg whites, and healthy sweets versus treats. Every day also included themed art projects and games enhancing both eye-hand coordination and the cross-lateral movement so crucial to the development of the brain, especially involving math skills. But shush! don’t tell the kids as they think it’s just a lot of fun!
