Mastering the fundamentals of baking helps develop creativity and provides kids with a foundation for a lifetime of fun in the kitchen. In this camp designed specifically for them, Sur La Table's experienced chef instructors will walk young bakers through five days of hands-on baking adventures.

First, kids will learn kitchen fundamentals like how to follow recipes, measuring, mixing, monitoring cooking temperatures, and timing—and perhaps most importantly—kitchen safety. Then, they'll teach them all about the wonderful world of baking, including the techniques professionals use to ensure jaw-dropping-delicious cakes, cookies, pies, tarts, breads and more.

On the last day of class Sur La Table will divide students into teams and host a baking competition to show off what students have learned. Parents are encouraged to join Sur La Table at the end of class that day and watch them crown the winning team. And, at the end of camp, each child gets to take home a Sur La Table apron, a Kuhn Rikon Deco Pen and a copy of The Children’s Baking Book!

Who will be the next celebrity pastry chef and what dish will win? This summer, share your love of cooking with your little one with an experience they’ll never forget.
