Hands-On Kitchen: Dumplings, Bao Buns & Sweet Treats

Course summary

Get ready for a full day of cooking adventure!

Children will start the morning cooking dumplings and steamed filled bao buns for their own lunch, then switch to sweet creativity in the afternoon. It’s savoury fun, sweet delights, and hands‑on kitchen magic all in one day.

What parents love most about YCC’s school holiday programs is that they’re always unique and a little bit different. And not to mention, so much FUN!

Suitable for children aged between 7 and 12 years old.

 

9.30am – 12.30pm: Dumplings and Steamed Filled Bao Buns

12.30pm – 3.30pm: Mango Sorbet with Fruits and Jellies

Finish the day with a fun and refreshing dessert workshop! Children will learn how to make mango sorbet from scratch before creating their own colourful shaved ice dessert, inspired by the unique flavours and ingredients enjoyed across Southeast and East Asia.
