RCmommy Posted November 7, 2023 #1 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Looking for any recent reviews from anyone who has attended a cooking class? Even better if it happened on the Panorama. I have the cake decorating class booked for January, but I’m thinking I should switch it after reading a review that little was learned. The cake is already pre-made, which is fine, but I would think that leaves more time to learn decorative skills like in the class description. The review said one flower was learned and that was it. If that’s the case I would rather try another if it is going to be “elaborate” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crooooze Posted November 7, 2023 #2 Share Posted November 7, 2023 We did the Pasta making class on Mardi Gras. Made fettuccini and a pancetta tomato sauce from scratch. It was a lot of fun and would recommend it. The class was about an hour. There were about 10 cooking stations in the room with 2 people per station. They have all the ingredients pre-measured in little dishes and walk you through the entire process. At the end of the class, you get to sit and enjoy what you prepared. They gave everyone a "Carnival Kitchen" rubber spatula as a parting gift. I've attached the handout they gave us with the recipes.

lasvegascruising Posted November 7, 2023 #4 Share Posted November 7, 2023 I say GO FOR IT!! Where else are you going to sign up for a cooking class? Just walk out your cabin door and in moments be at the class. Sounds like a great time. Be sure to post a few pictures for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctlyf Posted November 7, 2023 #5 Share Posted November 7, 2023 The pasta class on MG was fantastic. Didn't take the cake decorating but did the cupcake class and was disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allinwonderland Posted November 8, 2023 #9 Share Posted November 8, 2023 I did a brunch cooking class on the Panorama a year ago. It was fun, but if you already like to cook you're probably not going to learn too much. Was a cool experience for my vacation and then we got to eat everything, which was great! And took home the recipes (I've started making French toast that way and it's soooooo good). The cake decorating class does sound a little meh, though. Maybe look at one of the other options?

Rare jimbo5544 Posted November 9, 2023 #10 Share Posted November 9, 2023 (edited) I have done the pasta class, wife has done two others. Highly recommend it…do it. Edited November 9, 2023 by jimbo5544 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't really feel like there was a plan... we had three icing bags each with different tips. I thought we were going to learn how to make flowers and leaves and such. We asked what colors should go with each tip and were told it didn't matter. We learned a basket weave pattern, rosettes (imagine just squeezing the icing out and lifting up, if that makes sense). The cupcakes weren't really good and the icing started to melt... I didn't think it was that warm in the room but who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like skills I could learn from watching pros on YouTube so I’ll try out another class. I appreciate your feedback. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
