Baking Coach� Launches Edible Cookie Dough Baking Activity Kits at Summer Fancy Food Show 2023

With Baking Coach® Edible Cookie Dough Baking Activity Kits there’s NO BOWL NEEDED! Stress-Free, Mess-Free Real Baking All in one Easy Bag.
• June 25 - 27 Jacob Javitz Center NYC •

[HUNTINGTON, NY, June 2023] Baking Coach® is proud to announce the launch of their line of Edible Cookie Dough Baking Activity Kits at the Summer Fancy Food Show* held at the Jacob Javitz Center on June 25-27th at Booth 4605. Baking Coach® created their patent-pending Edible Cookie Dough Baking Activity Kits in 3 fab flavors: Chocolate Chip, Oatmeal Cookie and Birthday Sprinkle. Look for them at the NEW, NOW, NEXT section of the show.

Baking Activity Kits include pre-measured ingredients to get your bake on. The only additional ingredients needed are a stick of butter and a bit of water. You don’t even need a bowl to mix in. All ingredients go back into the food-safe bag where you can “smash mix” until you have cookie dough that is completely safe to eat, that then bakes up delicious cookies.

All Baking Coach® Baking Activity kits come with a link to a video where the Baking Coach will walk you step-by-step to making the cookies. Unlike other baking kits you still get to enjoy the baking process but we cut to the good parts by cutting out a lot of the measuring, guessing and kitchen mess!  

ORIGIN OF THE BAKING ACTIVITY KITS

Lisa Basini, founder and owner of the Baking Coach explains how the Baking Activity Kits were born in her kitchen, “When the pandemic hit everyone was suddenly stuck at home wanting to bake, and I wanted to teach them! I’ve taught in-person baking workshops on Long Island since 2005 and suddenly I couldn’t anymore, but I knew there was still a way to learn in your own kitchen. I also wanted to provide a solution to the age-old problem of cookie dough. Everyone loves tasting it, even when you know you shouldn’t. It can actually make you pretty sick. And, it’s not always the raw egg that’s the problem. People don’t realize that uncooked flour can carry salmonella.” Lisa Basini, the original Baking Coach got to work with her knowledge of food science to develop a recipe that makes it okay to eat her raw cookie dough, that then bakes into fresh, delicious cookies.

WHAT’S IN A BAKING ACTIVITY KIT

Not only did Basini create the perfect recipe, she also developed a new concept to a baking kit, unlike others out there that cut out the fun of baking. Baking Coach® Baking Activity Kits give you all the dry ingredients pre-measured in sealed pouches, a portioned measure of extract and a kit of tools that include parchment paper, a mixing stick and gloves. The occasional baker no longer needs to take up space in the pantry with ingredients that they will not use again for months.

NON-GMO, VEGAN-FRIENDLY & GLUTEN FREE AVAILABLE

Baking Coach® believes that the best ingredients, community and creativity are all part of the perfect recipe. They intentionally seek out the highest quality, Non-GMO ingredients for their products. In order to provide access to several dietary needs, all ingredients used in Baking Activity Kits are vegan-friendly. They also offer a Gluten-free flour as an add-on for their baking kits.

THE BAKING COACH® MISSION

The mission of the Baking Coach® has always been to teach people the love of baking by breaking things down in an easy-to-understand way, and to make baking accessible to all abilities. Baking Coach® provides access to baking for those who are differently-abled by creating workshops that are exclusive for those who require support. With the combination of the Baking Activity Kits and How-to Videos, Baking Coach® has made it possible to learn in your own kitchen.

BAKING COACH® BAKES IT FORWARD

Baking Coach® also actively supports the local differently-abled community by providing job training skills opportunities in partnership with local High School Special Education departments. Job skills training for young adults continues after High School through Recipes-4-Learning, a  501C Non-profit, which was also founded by Lisa Basini. Recipes 4 Learning participants provide production and assembly for most Baking Coach® products.
