We can feel the love in the air!
In our kitchen today, Stephanie Drewry, Owner of Sprouts Cooking School and her daughter Grace, show us how to make a Valentine’s Fondue and some yummy pink heart-shaped Cinnamon Rolls.
Sprouts Cooking School is Indiana’s only dedicated kids cooking school, featuring cooking classes for ages 3-13.
We’re located at 13190 Hazel Dell Pkwy, Carmel, IN 46033 (near Main Street and Hazel Dell Pkwy).
We are peanut and tree nut free cooking school. Additionally, we do our best to accommodate any other allergies if given advance notice at the time of booking.
We’re passionate about nurturing adventurous palates, building a strong foundation for a lifelong love of cooking and encouraging all families to cook together. Sprouts features:
· single session cooking classes
· special family fun cooking classes
· an exclusive MemberChef® program featuring skill-based culinary curriculum
· seasonal cooking camps
· and cooking themed birthday parties (currently with a birthday box virtual party option)
Our MemberChef® program is modeled after culinary school and is intended for students who have a true passion for cooking and want to elevate their skills in the kitchen. Each month our curriculum focuses on a specific culinary skill. Students attend 4 classes per month and work to hone and master the particular culinary skill outlined that month. At the end of the four weeks, classes commence with a family dinner where students show their parents what they learned and teachers present students with a custom-designed pin to display on their exclusive black Sprouts Cooking School chef coat.

At Sprouts Cooking School, the safety of our customers and The Sprouts Team members is our #1 priority! Sprouts has worked hard to develop the following measures and procedures to be proactive in light of COVID-19. Here is what we are doing:
Safety measures The Sprouts Team is taking:

· Increasing the frequency and extent of our cleaning practices with EPA-approved disinfectants
· Washing hands frequently with soap and hot water for at least 20 seconds
