Cupcakes are all the rage and it’s a trend that’s clearly here to stay! 

If you’ve ever been curious about how the pros make those cupcakes so precious and ornate, and if competition is your middle name, then this is the week for you! We’ll spend three days on cupcake basics -measuring, mixing, baking, and frosting, and then finish the week with two days of baking battle! Small teams will face off with one another to compete for the title of “Best Cupcake!”

May the best cupcake win!

American cuisine is inspired by cultures around the world but has become uniquely and deliciously its own! 

For most Americans, nothing says summer like hamburgers, hot dogs, and potato salad. And while some of those items are definitely on our All-American Summer Menu, we are also going to explore American cuisine from sea to shining sea, from Southern BBQ to California’s twist on the BLT to the countrywide favorite Strawberry Shortcake! 

Come dive into summer with Tiny Chefs-- It will feel like the 4th of July all week!

Kid cooks, bakers, and chefs have joined the ranks of elimination-style cooking contests, and here at Tiny Chefs, we are getting in on the action! In this exciting session, campers will be separated into rotating teams, and each team will create recipes that are judged by the instructors in a blind taste test with preset criteria. Each day the teams will create three items; two recipes will be a head-to-head competition making the same item. The third item will be recipes that are similar but have slightly different ingredients—Farmers Market Pasta Salad vs Pesto Pasta Salad with Summer Veggies, for example. May the best team win!

Cupcakes have been the baked item of choice for several years now, and the Tiny Chefs’ version of Cupcake Wars has been so popular we have had to create a “sequel” to introduce new recipes and competitions. 

In Cupcake Wars 2.0 we have gathered cupcake recipes that double as breakfast foods or drinks (what?!!?), and that explore regional and international cuisines. On top of that, we have included savory cupcakes! Don’t worry, campers will still be competing in rotating small groups and learning decorating techniques.
