Kids Rave About Our Cooking Birthday Parties

Don’t throw a birthday party that’s been thrown before! Pass on the pony rides and processed foods this year and throw a kids’ cooking class birthday party in Miami that’s as fresh and fulfilling as the food you’ll prepare.

Our location in Miami welcomes up to 140 little chefs (and their parents) for a fun and delicious cooking birthday experience. Optionally, our mobile service can drive to a party location of your choice (additional charges apply).

From the very beginning, we invite the client to be as hands-on as they wish to be during the planning process. Whether you want to hammer out every detail or leave it all to our professional and experienced staff, we’re ready to accommodate you.

The menus for our kids’ cooking class birthday parties in Miami include meals that children of all ages will love to eat, but they’re made with all-natural ingredients and healthy substitutions. At the Real Food Academy, we live by our mantra: “We don’t change the dish, we change the ingredients!” Not only will your guests get to eat something delicious that they’ve prepared with their own two hands, but they’ll eat healthy, too.

What About The Adults Who Come?

We understand how fun and endearing it can be for family and friends to watch kids during one of our cooking birthday parties as each one prepares and eats delicious, healthy food. But, on an empty stomach, the mouth watering sights and aromas that dance with our guests’ appetite may be too much to handle! :)

That's why we now offer both Savory and Sweet chef prepared food platter's, certain to keep your palate and stomach pleasantly occupied while you're watching.

When You're Here, You're Family

You are more than welcome to decorate the space, bring a cake, hang a pinata, or supply other activities and extras for your child’s cooking class birthday party. Visit our FAQ section below for further information about what our kids’ birthday party place in Miami is able to accommodate and read through our party packages to find a celebration option that works for you.

Give us a call (786) 395-0355 if you have any special needs for planning a kids’ cooking class birthday party in Miami that’s guaranteed to deliver great times and great tastes!

If a  Piñata is important to you and you have ordered a Budding Chef party, you can add $100 for the extra time and we will gladly welcome your Piñata.

However we are more than happy to help in a pinch.

Yes!

In some cases you can show up as early as 1 hour before your party time.  In other cases that will not be possible due to parties or classes happening before your party.  Every situation is different.  If you feel you need to arrive a full hour before your party time please call 786-395-0355 to inquire.

Flawless experience

★★★★★
This was, per my son, “the best birthday EVER!!!” The experience was absolute perfection. Chef Matthias and Toni waited on us hand and foot, and Maria supported us through the menu planning and allergy accommodation process. Every guest was gushing about the spectacular venue, food, and extremely fun cooking class that was wildly well-received by the kids. The adults had a fantastic time. The food is chef-driven (of course) and delectable. We can’t wait to be back!
- Monica

The Real Food Academy is THE place to have a birthday party. I had my twins 6th birthday party over this past weekend and it was an incredible experience. Several parents of attendees reached out to express its success. The staff goes over and above and the pizza was delicious. We will be back and highly recommend. Thanks for an amazing experience.
