Thank you for voting us a winner 2 years in a row!
Our parties can take place in your home or at numerous facilities we have partnered with. We service the 5 boroughs of New York City along with Nassau and Suffolk Counties, Westchester, Rockland County, and select parts of New Jersey.
From the moment our guests put on their colorful aprons and chef hats, they are transformed into li’l chefs. Each party will last 2 ½ hours. Children ages 4-14 will be busy creating edible goodies, decorating their chef attire, playing food related games, and learning cooking essentials of food preparation, safety, and hygiene.
We enjoy customizing each party to fit the needs of our li’l guest of honor. We pay careful attention to even the littlest details. Our parties are not cookie cutter parties. They represent the individual tastes of our guests.
