Why Choose Our Culinary Program:

  • Adaptive Tools for Independence: We use a wide range of adaptive cooking tools—like palm peelers, ergonomic choppers, and slicers—to support students of all abilities. These tools promote independence, reduce safety risks, and make hands-on participation accessible for everyone.
  • Safety is OUR PRIORITY: Our classes are equipped with induction cooktops that have no open flames and are specifically designed to only heat the cookware, keeping the surface cool. This ensures a safe environment without harmful gases, and operation is simple with just 2-3 buttons to get started.
  • Visual Aids and Quiet Environment: We provide visual aids with step-by-step instructions in a quiet environment free of outside distractions, allowing students to focus better and learn effectively.
  • Small Class Sizes: We limit the classroom size to a 1:5 ratio, ensuring more individualized attention and a better learning experience for each student.
  • Extra Time for Engagement: Each class includes extra time to answer questions and share fun facts and techniques, making the learning process more engaging and enjoyable.
  • Timers and Visual Checklists: We use timers and visual checklists to track every step in the cooking process, helping students follow along and understand each phase of meal preparation. 
  • Simple Cooking Techniques: Our classes focus on simple cooking techniques, using one-pot dishes and versatile sides such as pastas, veggies, beans, and grains that pair well with a variety of proteins.

What we offer:

  • Adaptive Culinary Classes (18 and older): We offer both private, one-on-one classes and small group sessions to accommodate different learning styles and comfort levels, making culinary education accessible and enjoyable for all. *For private classes please email us at blossomwithautism@gmail.com
  • On-the-Job Training: Participants who complete six-months of culinary courses gain access to an advanced training platform that covers all aspects of operating a food truck. 
  • Creative Workshops (Coming soon): We offer a series of classes each month designed for exploration and development of new skills, from pressed flowers to enhancing social skills, in a supportive and enriching environment.
