Cooking Classes Coming Soon...
Let's get in the kitchen!
We’re excited to announce that Pamepeppe will soon be offering cooking classes right here in the beautiful community of Rancho Mission Viejo, and Ladera Ranch, California!
Chef Pam, the owner of Pamepeppe and a Culinary Arts Instructor at a local high school, has a lifelong passion for teaching others how to cook. Long before she started her businesses or began guiding students in the classroom, she was sharing her love of food with her family—her niece, six nephews, and her two kids—right in her own kitchen. Through cooking together, she taught them not just recipes, but the joy of family, creativity, and a true appreciation for food.
Chef Pam believes that everyone, especially young people, can find confidence and connection in the kitchen. Her classes will focus on the fundamentals of cooking, giving participants the skills to prepare delicious, nutritious meals at home. Whether you’re a beginner or looking to sharpen your culinary skills, these classes will be a fun, hands-on way to learn, create, and share the love of good food.
Stay tuned for class announcements and schedules!

Pamepeppe cooking school
our program
Pamepeppe Community Cooking School offers hands-on cooking classes for toddlers, kids, teens, adults, and families. Our mission is to inspire a lifelong love for cooking, baking, and sharing meals together. Each class focuses on teaching essential kitchen skills — from measuring and mixing to understanding ingredients and kitchen safety — while encouraging creativity, confidence, and teamwork in the kitchen.
We believe that learning to cook is more than following a recipe; it’s about developing an appreciation for food, culture, and healthy eating. Whether you’re a young beginner cracking your first egg or an adult looking to refine your skills, Pamepeppe provides a fun and supportive environment where everyone can explore the joy of cooking and baking from scratch.
