Most cooking and baking classes are taught in commercial facilities using equipment better suited for a restaurant or bakery than a home kitchen.

BREADCRAFT classes are taught in a kitchen like your own, using tools and equipment that are standard in most home kitchens. No need to buy fancy gadgets and costly equipment. Even if you've never baked bread before, you'll leave class with the know-how to recreate the same delicious breads in your own kitchen using tools you already have at home.

 In order to provide an optimal learning experience and ensure that students get plenty of individual attention and guidance with the products they make, enrollment is limited to 10 students per class.
