Cooking Parties for birthdays, special occasions and more!

note: due to our recent loss of venue, we can't currently offer these for groups larger than 8 unless you can provide a suitable venue. For groups of up to 8, please enquire about our home and garden options (see pricing below). We appreciate your patience while we look for a new space.

Looking for a fun group activity? Got a team of keen cooks? Then we've got the perfect event for you.

Our cooking parties are a fantastic, fun and engaging activity. They're the perfect option for a birthday, a staff party, a team building experience or even to spice up your hen/stag do!

We currently have two options:

1) either an at-home cooking experience for up to eight guests (at your home or Wendy's)

2) or for larger groups if you have your own suitable venue, we can offer a chef-led or a masterchef-style cook-off with fun culinary games

Our home & garden small group workshops

Small group home-based classes

Smaller groups (up to 8) can opt to have Wendy run a private event from her home or yours with pricing starting at $199pp+gst for six to eight guests (for fewer guests or couples, please enquire with Wendy). Recent half-day workshops include a private 'Cooking with Van Gogh' art and cooking class for a 60th birthday party for a group of friends, a pasta workshop where we made ravioli, salad with edible flowers from the garden, and tiramisu, and a botanical gifts workshop where we blended our own herbal teas (and learned about the healing properties of each herb), made culinary vinegar and salts, made candles, a healthy sweet treat and sipped on organic herbal tisanes from our garden. Please get in touch to chat with Wendy about your cooking party idea!

Options below are currently only available if you can provide a suitable venue:

Private Chef-led Classes

Join us for a fun, hands on private cooking class led by a professional friendly chef.

You choose the cuisine and our chef will lead your group in a hands-on cooking workshop finishing with a delicious shared meal. Popular options include Thai, Middle Eastern, fresh pasta and tiramisu, or get in touch with your idea!

We'll provide all the ingredients including organic vegetables from our garden, tools, recipes and aprons. All you need to do is turn up and have fun!

Note: we currently don't have a suitable venue for large groups. If you can provide the venue, let us know and we can work out a quote for you.

Our private chef-led classes for groups of 10+ start at $1985 +gst for the first 10 guests, then $99 pp thereafter. Pricing is based on a minimum of 10 people but you can always have a smaller group.

Please contact us for more details and to get a quote.

"Our team did a private cooking class and lunch with Wendy and Maurizio as part of a team building day. We made an 8 course Persian feast. Wendy was fantastic. We couldn't get over how organised everything was - and not having to do you own dishes was a real plus. Our recipes were clear, and Wendy was so helpful, patient and fun. The day was a pleasure. And the food was delicious! We had a great time. I would thoroughly recommend Savour's cooking classes - whether you're taking a private or public class."
