After this cake-centered cooking class with Chef Crys, your homemade cakes will never be the same! Demystify the expert methods, techniques and ingredients used to create perfectly-textured, artful-looking cakes with pastry chef Chef Crys as your guide.

Start out with classic pound cake as you combine no-frills cake ingredients to create miniature old-fashioned butter Bundt cakes. Spread a heavenly homemade mascarpone whipped cream over these decadent treats before discovering the most scrumptious secret cake ingredient: olive oil. Using olive oil, you'll create an impressively moist, spongey cake infused with the bright, elegant flavors of rosemary and lemon. Create a tempting praline and pecan icing to wrap up this insightful lesson.

This class was a Father's Day gift from my sister and I, and we all had such a blast! Chef Crys walked us through the details of each ingredient--we were even able to taste them. I enjoyed learning about where to source healthier ingredients too. Definitely plan to take another cooking class from her. Thank you Classpop for being an awesome online platform where folks can find classes like this, and thank you Chef Crys for sharing your knowledge with us and helping us have a lot of fun! God Bless :D

I took one of Chef Crys online cooking classes and had an amazing experience. I learned so many new things, from how to properly wash my produce to the best way to make a smoothie for optimal digestion. We made 3 different meals and they were all delicious. I made french toast for the first time and I am hooked. Overall this was a great and educational experience. I highly recommend her services.

Just had a virtual, culinary experience with Chef Crys like no other to celebrate Galentine’s Day2022! She was awesome … very knowledgeable and patient!! We created a four course Southern Brunch! Everything turned out deliciously and I walked away with more confidence in the kitchen! She is very thorough and professional (yet personable)! I’m not a psychic but I foresee working with Chef Crys in the future! Awesome young woman, doing some awesome things in the kitchen!!

Chef Crys showed me how to use mushrooms as a meat substitute for an easy appetizer like sandwich. She gave me a lot of information on the uses for different kinds of mushrooms. The colorful presentation consisted of avocado, mushrooms and fresh herbs from her garden. She was very friendly and personable during her class. I felt right at home in her kitchen.
