We at Chocolates and Tomatoes Farm are pleased to be extending our partnership with Chef Missy of the Preppy Chef! She will be sharing her cookie-decorating expertise as a Chef-Instructor at The Learning Kitchen at Chocolates and Tomatoes Farm.


Chef Missy has been regularly sharing her baked goods and dog treats at our on-farm market for about 3 years now. Many of you have enjoyed her cowboy cookies, cinnamon rolls, ginger-peach scones, and more. And, we know some of your dogs just can't get enough of her special dog treats!


She has also contributed her artistic culinary creations to make some of our Learning Kitchen classes more memorable -- if you came to our gingerbread house class a couple of years ago, you would have been delighted by her royal icing decorations. (see pictures below). She was also a big contributor to our Gingerbread Story!


Some Previous Chocolates and Tomatoes Farm Contributions


At the Preppy Chef, Chef Missy adds more smiles to many people's happy occasions through her artistic creations. Although she went to cooking school, she told me that finding her artistic side in baking was a happy accident when called to fill in for a sick coworker who was working in the bakery side of the company.

On a more personal note, Chef Mark, Crema, and I consider Chef Missy and her family to be friends of ours. Their house is where Crema goes to stay when we travel. Chef Missy's dog, Jenny, and Crema are great friends.

Saturday, August 16, 10am-Noon, Beach-Themed: Learn Cookie Decorating with Chef Missy -- Register here to be one of the first to try it out! You will practice royal icing skills and techniques and take home 1 dozen cookies that you decorate. Just like other classes at The Learning Kitchen at Chocolates and Tomatoes Farm, these classes are for adults or teens/tweens paired with a supportive adult. 


Yes, the on-farm market will still be happening that day. Stop by to pick up your fresh fruits and veggies, or chocolates, first thing and then head on up to class.


Future Cookie Decorating Classes with Chef Missy

Our plan is to offer 1-2 Chef Missy cookie decorating classes each month. You can find her classes in the same place you find all classes for The Learning Kitchen.

  • Right now, we are collaborating with Chef Missy on ideas; check back in a couple of weeks for more classes.

  • In each class, you can work on perfecting your decorating skills, go home with a dozen of your own creations, instructions for how to do it again, and you can purchase some materials from Chef Missy on-site.
