New Culinary Classes at Cups La Jolla

From the decadent Almond Dream; a pastry cream-filled cup topped with vanilla-almond buttercream and sliced almonds, to the oh-so zesty Zanzibar Chai; a rich vanilla bean cup topped with spicy-sweet chai frosting: you’ll definitely find that this A-Z menu of cupcakes is not all you will sink your sweet teeth into at Cups La Jolla.

With the cupcake connoisseur in mind, this eco-friendly La Jolla bakery serves up award winning cupcakes and sweets using all organic, local ingredients.  In a stylish and retro-cool atmosphere equip with DJ booth, indulge in true craft cupcake creations and sip the signature Strawberry milk that is always on-tap.

And because everyone deserves a sweet treat, those with dietary-needs can fully enjoy San Diego’s widest assortment of cupcakes such as gluten-free Limone-Ricotta: a Lemon ricotta torte cup made with ground almonds topped with lemon cream cheese frosting, the vegan Cookies n’ Cream: moist dark chocolate cup topped with cookies n’ cream frosting and the non-dairy and a local favorite: the PB cup with rich chocolate cup topped with creamy peanut butter frosting in a hard chocolate shell.

San Diego Summer Cooking Classes: Cups has taken baking to a new level with their exclusive cooking classes led by renowned culinary experts. Take your taste buds on exploration through creativity, culture and flavor with an array of weekly classes offered this summer at Cups La Jolla.

Food enthusiasts of every age, dietary habit and cooking expertise are invited to sign-up for a chance to be your own culinary creator. Unlike other teaching kitchens, Cups courses are completely hands-on and end with a group meal so that students have the chance not only to sit down with the chef and ask questions, but also spend time with them after they make the meal.

Try one of the alternative healthy classes, like A Slimmer Cinco de Mayo coming up on April 30 with Jesus Gonzalez, formerly of Rancho La Puerta and Golden Door spas; or Raw Food Fiesta, featuring Joy Houston on May 21.  Specialized courses include the first of Rachel Marie’s gluten-free classes, Spring Break Brunch on May 19, Bastille Day Feast with Marine Room Chefs Bernard Guillas & Ron Oliver on July 16, and Charcuterie on October 8 with Quality Social’s Chefs Jared Van Camp & Sam Burman.
