“Having exhausted all our birthday options in the Bay Area, I was looking for something different and fun for my daughter's 10th birthday. I was lucky through word of mouth to discover Epic Cooking School! My daughter loves watching cupcake wars and Lizzie was able to recreate the show. She did an amazing job keeping the kids engaged and on task. She taught them how to cook everything from scratch and let them be as creative as they wanted in their designs. I cannot recommend Epic Cooking School enough!”
