Culinary Dreams Come True at the C-CAP Competition

Culinary Dreams Come True at the C-CAP Competition

When there’s good food involved, we like to think everyone’s winning. And this year at the Careers through Culinary Arts Program (C-CAP) Culinary Competition, young chefs Adrian Gonzalez and Matthew Sanchez won big! Adrian snagged a $2,700 Culinary Classroom scholarship, and C-CAP gifted Matthew with a $2,700 scholarship. Matthew will be taking the Master Baking Program.

Since 1990, C-CAP has provided more than $50 million in scholarships to talented high school students seeking to enter the competitive culinary field, with rewards varying from a $250,000 four-year Johnson & Wales scholarship to three months’ restaurant work in Europe – and Chef Eric has been a proud contributor for over 10 years. Not only does he take time to judge the finals, he rarely misses the awards breakfast…and not just because he loves breakfast.

“Through C-CAP, I have been providing scholarships and mentorship for deserving kids in my Master Baking and Master Chef Programs since 2005,” says Chef Eric, “Former graduates of my programs have gone on to own successful businesses and work in popular restaurants. Being part of this organization and getting to see so many young chefs pursue their goals fills me with pride!”

We want to make our awesome programs accessible even if you didn’t kill it in a competition. We offer payment plans and part-time options so nothing can keep you from going pro or cooking and baking like one! Get a load of graduates’ success stories, get inspired, and get ready for our next Master Chef and Baking Programs starting on September 10th and September 12th.

See you in my kitchen!

First I have to say how much fun Dina and I had at your Chicken Connoisseur class this past Friday. What a great class and the food was incredible.
Teresa Vizcaino, Chicken Connoisseur Class
Lucas had so much fun. The first day I picked him up from cooking he had a huge smile on his face. He said mom, I love the class!
Mrs. Frank
My wife volunteered my services as Chef for a New Years Eve party for 3-4 couples. Your class has given me the confidence to create a masterful meal that will be served on time, look fantastic and taste even better.
Jim MacBeth, Healthy Cooking Series Graduate
Hi Chef! My daughter, Makenna, and I were in your cupcake class on Saturday and we had so much fun and just finished our last cupcake today. I am ready to bake tomorrow and impress my friends with your delicious recipes! Thanks!
Mandy Yu, Heavenly Cupcakes Baking Class
Jim and I want to thank you for a wonderful experience on Saturday. We loved the class and food so much Jim went out today and purchased some of the spices so we could make the cauliflower and potato side dish. It was just as wonderful as it was on Saturday. We will definitely be telling others about this wonderful experience and hopefully see you soon.
Jim and Darlene Dorian, Indian Cuisine Class
Chef Eric runs a great “Culinary Basics” class series. He makes the experience of learning to cook fun and interesting. Anyone interested in learning to cook will come out of this series much more confident about his or her cooking skills. I am looking forward to the next series!
Alan Weil, Culinary Basics Series Graduate
I’d developed a flair for Baking, and used to do tons of it at home. I was looking at doing some professional Baking courses when I came across Chef Eric’s Culinary Classroom Master Baking Program. I’m glad I chose this program as the course was really detailed and focused on the right techniques and helped me fine tune my Baking. Since then I’ve moved to Bangalore, India, however I’ve kept in contact with Chef Eric and he still helps me answer my Baking queries.
Just want to express how much we enjoyed our class. Thank you to Eric and the exceptional quality of people assisting. Not only was the experience well organized,The food DELICIOUS and the class fun…..Everyone was so kind and accommodating!
Rita Ornelas Humm- Spanish Cuisine Student
I had the best experience in this class, and Thank you Chef Eric for your teaching, support and enthusiasm. I have grown to know all of you as my friends,  My Ohana, My family. I have never met a greater bunch of folks, I left each class smiling as a result of not only creating dishes, but because of the fun we had, the laughter. Absolutely Priceless.
Todd Griswold, Master Baking Program Graduate
As someone who longs to have the culinary prowess to create great dishes I have finally found the way!  Chef Eric’s Culinary Classroom is exactly what I needed. With zero background in the kitchen I needed to start from scratch.  I needed a class where I could learn the basics about everything necessary to become a competent Chef.  Chef Eric fit the bill and I have not been disappointed yet. The Culinary Classroom provides a great learning environment where I am able to feel comfortable and l…
