Birthday Parties

Birthday Parties at the Merry Kitchen are a blast! Bring your friends and select a theme off the website (click on the "calendar" tab and click on any class to see the menu for that class), or create one of your own! Browse back through past months to see the many options for birthdays. You get to create an entire meal, eat at the end and take home recipes. For an additional cost of $15, you can also cook the birthday cake or other birthday dessert in class. Adjustments may have to be made to the menu to fit the cake into the two hour class.

Birthday party minimum number of people is four. Maximum at the Merry Kitchen ranges between 8-10, depending on theme and age group. The Merry Kitchen also travels to your home or other venue for an additional cost. Minimum number of people at your location of choice is five. If I travel to you, there can be more than 10 kids, but I don't advise more than 12 kids cooking at once.

Online birthday parties are also an option. Not every menu is doable online so we can discuss your child's interests and find a menu that works. Parents have to shop for the ingredients ahead of time. There are no birthday "kits".

Birthday parties generally run two hours. Cost for kids' birthday parties at the Merry Kitchen for 4-5 kids is $45/child. Cost for kids' birthday parties with 6 or more kids is $40/child. Cost for kids' birthday party at your home is $45/child. Minimum of 5 kids needed to travel.

Adult birthday parties are not hosted at the Merry Kitchen, but I can travel to your home or other venue. Cost for adult birthday parties at your home or other venue is $75/hour plus the cost of food.

*If you want all organic or gluten free at your birthday party, please add an additional $5 per person to cover the cost. Please mention that you would like all organic or gluten free when planning the party.
