Cooking & Baking Classes

If you want to learn how to cook, bake, or make something new, you’ve probably scoured the Internet looking for the best possible way to do so. Recipe cards, articles, and instructional videos can only take you so far without the personal touch of a cooking or baking instructor. You may have tried these recipes only to have them not turn out the way you thought, or perhaps it just wasn’t as much fun to learn without someone to share the experience with.

At The Eclectic Chic Boutique, we believe cooking & baking classes–whether in-person or online–are the best way to expand your knowledge and create something uniquely “you.” Whether you want to learn how to bake the perfect dessert for your family or wow your coworkers with an expertly mixed cocktail, there’s something for everyone within our cooking & baking class offerings. Our cooking, baking, mixing, and brewing instructors are handpicked for their experience and results. We also determine everything you’ll need to complete the workshop beforehand, even for virtual cooking & baking classes, which takes the stress out of following a recipe even if you’re doing it at home.

Our workshops can be booked individually or as a group. Many of our courses are suitable for children 8 and up; however, please read the course description before booking as some are designed only for adult participants. 

Learn a new skill with cooking & baking classes & workshops at The Eclectic Chic Boutique, located in Montclair, NJ. You can also take our virtual cooking and baking classes online.
