So if you'd like to register another adult for this class, you must sign them up as your child. Simply choose "ADD CHILD” and enter your guest's name and a birthday. This will allow you to register another participant. Price is per person, so it will add the additional cost for the seat.

Finding a way for amateurs not to use too much butter. My dishes were a little greasy (granted that's on me, but I normally wouldn't eat that much butter, lol!)

Nothing- we left after the cupcakes went into the oven
Improvements:
Not enough instructors for a group of multiple tables. Should be a ratio of one instructor per table like all other schools or less people.

Response from Cookology at Ballston Quarter
Nice try. Yes we all watched you - your disdain was for the other attendees - and your subsequent walkout was your little protest. To the contrary, everyone in this class had a lot of fun - the food was amazing - evidence of it is on Instagram, and the 5 star review for the same class. Please do not return.
