Weekend Bakery Camp at Foodie Kids Austin: One Day of Pastries, Dough Work, and Real Baking Skills
Looking for a bakery camp Austin kids can actually dig into? On Monday, November 2nd, Foodie Kids opens the doors to the Weekend Bakery, a one-day camp where young bakers fill a real pastry case with sweet and savory creations made completely from scratch. The session runs from 10am to 1pm and is open to all ages.
What Kids Will Make
This is not a decorate-a-pre-baked-cookie kind of day. Campers will work through a full pastry menu:
- Cheddar and Chive Quiches — savory, flaky, and satisfying
- Ham and Cheese Kolaches — a Texas classic done right
- Lemon Blueberry Danishes — bright, buttery, and layered
- Strawberry Jam Morning Buns — soft, swirled, and glazed
- Fruit Tartlets — patisserie-style, finished with decorating detail
Along the way, campers practice dough work, shaping, filling, glazing, and decorating. These are real techniques, and kids will leave with real results they made themselves.
