Camp Description:
Join us for a fantastical 4-day summer cooking camp for Junior Chefs (ages 9-14) who love the journey of Harry, Ron, Hermione, and all the kids at Hogwarts School as you learn how to make enchanting foods fit for a wizard. Professor Tracy Blizman, a self-professed Potterhead, is super excited to teach this magically awesome cooking series. You’ll gather in the CCKC Great Hall Kitchen where she’ll teach dazzling culinary wizardry (what the Muggles call essential cooking techniques). You’ll learn an array of enchanting dishes like Hagrid’s Rock Cakes, Chocolate Frogs, Potter House Cakes (think Gryffindor, Ravenclaw and the like) and so much more! And you’ll leave with all the recipes so you recreate the yummy dishes at home and show off to friends and family.

Day 1
Welcome to Professor Tracy’s School of Kitchen Witchcraft and Culinary Wizardry! We’ll start with the basics of castle cooking as we create Ham & Cheese Howlers (with Pepperoni!) and learn the techniques for making a perfect crust. Every decent Quidditch player will need plenty of carbs for the games against the dark lords, so Professor Tracy will imbue us with spells in the breadmaking department as we create one of Dumbledore’s favorites – Magic Monkey Bread. Cooking is hard work, so we’ll break out the cauldrons and create a Summer Ice Potion made with watermelon. Finally, it’s all about the Cockroach Clusters (a combination of Pretzels, Caramel, and Bacon). You’ll have to take the class to be able to say you ate these delicious creepy crawly cookies.
 
Day 2
Today we’ll decide if you are a Slytherin, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, or Gryffindor. No sorting hat? No problem! We’ll make our very own as Professor Tracy walks us through the ins and outs of baking her Sorting Hat Cookies (with Hershey's Kisses!). Hogwarts students know better than anyone that we need something other than sugar to get us through our spells and studies, so we’ll face our spidery fears with some Aragog Arachnid Meatballs and tantalizing Tomato Gravy (Marinara Sauce from scratch) and Magical Mashed Potatoes. To finish off our day of magical scholarship, we’ll cool off with an ice-cold Summer Brew Butterbeer. Shhh – don’t tell Professor Snape about our trip to The Leaky Cauldron!

Day 3
We hope you remember what Professor Tracy taught you about making a magical fire because today is all about baking! First we’ll practice what we learned in yesterday’s bewitched baking lesson by whipping up some Charmed Cupcakes! Next, we’ll hop on the Hogwarts Express to learn how to make their famous Chocolate Frogs. After such a long and tiresome journey to the Muggle world, we’ll need some sustenance to get us up on our broomsticks in the morning. So Professor Tracy will show us how to cook up some scrumptious Spooky Slytherin Sticks with tasty homemade tomato sauce. Finally, we’ll get started on our super-secret Dragon’s Egg Egg Bake (Egg Casserole). Just don’t let Hagrid know we had to borrow one of his eggs!

Day 4
Congratulations, young wizard! You’ve made it to the last day of Professor Tracy’s School of Kitchen Witchcraft and Culinary Wizardry. To prepare for your graduation into the wizarding world, we’ll begin decorating to make sure all of our preparations are in tip-top shape. Professor Tracy will start by showing us how to make some fantastical frosting for the cupcakes we made on Day 3, so don’t forget your aprons and be sure to study up on your creativity charms! Next we’ll cook up the Dragon’s Egg Egg Bake and give Hagrid a big thank-you by making his favorite: Hagrid’s Rock Cakes (Oatmeal Raisin Cookies). We’ll need something salty after all those sweet treats, so we’ll finish up with some powerful Patronus Popcorn Balls to protect us from the Dementors. Be sure to take what you’ve learned at the School of Kitchen Witchcraft and Culinary Wizardry with you when you leave – you never know when you’ll have to fight off the horrors of Voldemort’s empty refrigerator!

Please click here for a full description of our policies and FAQ’s. Finalization of your registration tells us that you have read and understand them.  Below is a summary of some of the key information, but it is not all-inclusive. 

• For multi-session classes and camps, we will gladly give you a full refund if you need to cancel more than three weeks prior to the start of the first class in the series and/or camp. Within three weeks of the start of a series, no refunds or credits will be given. Please note that any refund issued for classes purchased using a Gift Certificate or Account Credit will result in reinstatement of the original Gift Card or Account Credit and will bear the same expiration date. Account Credits issued for cancelations within three weeks of a class will expire one year from the date of issuance. We reserve the right to cancel a class for any reason, at any time, in which case you will receive a full refund. In the event your child misses a class in the series or camp, no refunds will be given and it is not possible to make up the class(es) in a future similar series. Likewise, once the series or camp has begun, no substitutions will be allowed since the series is designed for the classes to build upon each other.
• If (a) you’d like to sit with another registered guest, or (b) have any food allergies or dietary restrictions, please let us know in the Comments section of your registration after reading our full description of policies and information about classes. Please note that children on the same registration form will automatically be seated together.
• Your registration tells us that you have read through the class description including the age requirements for that particular class.
• For Junior Chef (ages 9-14) classes and camps: Your child must be at least 9 years old as of the first class date (or as of the date of the first class of a series or camp) and no more than 14 years old. We reserve the right to check the age of your child. You must provide an Under 18 Waiver that is signed by a parent or legal guardian. Click here for a copy of the Under 18 Waiver. We encourage you to download, print, and sign the waiver and bring it to class with your child. If someone other than the parent signs a Waiver, they will need a legal document to be presented that shows without question that they have the legal authority to sign a Waiver on behalf of your child at that time. Without an appropriately signed Waiver, your child will not be allowed to attend the class. If someone other than the parent drops off your child and requests to sign on behalf of a child, they will need evidence that they are a legal guardian for that child. Please choose the class that is right for the developmental level and maturity of your child.
