Parental Guidance
By enrolling in the class, families accept full responsibility for their learner's safety which includes but not limited to kitchen materials and the ingredients.
As this is a baking class, students are required to have an adult working with them in order to complete each of the recipes and extra projects.
Class videos will be hosted on Erin’s private YouTube channel with the links so that learners can view the videos in the classroom. For Edpuzzle, learners can find additional information to enhance the learning but it is not required.
Supply List
Each week the ingredient list will be posted along with the class video. Students will need to have the required ingredients to be able to complete each recipe.

Since my twins were extremely young, they have always been in the kitchen with me cooking and creating. We learned to adapt recipes to fit our dietary needs as one of my daughters was diagnosed with severe food allergies as a toddler.
