Workshops and events

Our workshops help our clients to connect with a wide audience, starting with kids. In a playful and educational way, we make children aware of the impact food has on the planet, people and personal health.

let’s cook a story

In 2014, Maddalena published Let’s Cook a Story, a coproduction with Nicola Dehmer. The book describes adventures of 5 funny characters, the Yummies, linked to the 5 basic tastes.  Let’s Cook a Story encourages kids to explore the world of REAL food and let them discover the joy and the unique taste of self prepared recipes.

In Let’s Cook a Story the Yummies embark on adventures to discover the secrets about the origin, the diversity and the benefits of real food. In a playful way, children get introduced to the ingredients that nature offers. The kids experiment with easy recipes that challenge them to try new tastes.

Let’s Cook a Story developed into a platform, aimed at educating a broad public about production, preparation and consumption of REAL food. The events, food labs and workshops conducted by Let’s Cook a Story focus on creating awareness that will help people from all ages to engage in a healthy lifestyle.
