“Denise does such a great job! My son is on the Autism spectrum and has difficulty trying new foods and new textures. Denise not only introduced him to many new and healthy foods in a fun way, she even helped him discover a love of broccoli! Cooking in Bloom is always one of our summer staples when it comes to educational and fun camps. My son is now 11 and he still has as much fun at Denise's camps as he did when he was little. Denise's recipes are delicious and healthy - we still make recipes from last summer's cookbook!”

“My 12 year old son has loved learning about nutrition and trying new/healthy recipes. He absolutely loves going to the classes and then he comes home and recreates the recipe and he feels so proud & accomplished. Mrs. Denise has been a joy to get to know.. she is so sweet, patient & knowledgeable. I can tell that she has a passion for teaching kids the importance of healthy nutrition and trying new things. I highly recommend trying her classes.. you won’t be disappointed.”

“Oliver had a great time in your cooking class at school today. He told me that he now likes spinach and pineapple, two foods he really hasn't been into in the past, so thank you!”
