Team Building Activity: Holiday Cheer Cookie Decorating Competition

Bring some holiday cheer and friendly competition to this festive team building activity at your place. Chef Daniel will guide you in this decorating duel that will invigorate creativity and improve collaboration and communication skills in a sugary-sweet way.


First, your team will make homemade hot cocoa to sip on as you decorate. Then, Chef Daniel will teach the group how to master frosting cookies like a pastry-maker, including the proper techniques for flooding and piping your design. After the proper preparation, you'll break into groups to decorate gingerbread and sugar cookies. Work together to create festive designs to present to the judges to see who will be crowned the Cookie Decorating Master.

Chef Dan's excellent cooking skills combined with his 'make you feel comfortable' personality made this class fun, informative, and delicious! He is a patient instructor who understands the skill level of the people he is working with and adjusts accordingly. We had a fun anniversary date night enjoying to learn how to prepare and cook scrumptious Vietnamese dishes!
