Hi, I’m Val and I run Cook Stars Mid Wales.
I’m a mum of four with two now working as chefs so the kitchen has always been at the heart of our home. I’ve seen first-hand how cooking builds confidence, independence and creativity in children.
My sessions are hands-on, practical and welcoming. Children cook from scratch, take home what they’ve made, and leave feeling proud of what they can do.
I have a real love for Mediterranean cooking, simple, sociable food inspired by Italy and beyond, full of fresh flavours and dishes children genuinely enjoy making and eating.
From weekly classes to workshops and parties, everything is relaxed, inclusive and professionally organised. I provide all ingredients, equipment and aprons, you just bring the enthusiasm!
