Making Memories and Bread: A One-of-a-Kind Teen Breadmaking Class at Devil’s Canyon Brewing

As the summer sun sets on California, the last night of school vacation is the perfect time to do something extraordinary with your teens and tweens. At Devil’s Canyon Brewing, we’re rolling up our sleeves to make bread, memories, and maybe even a little bit of magic. This isn’t your typical breadmaking class—it’s a wild and wacky night packed with laughter, learning, and loaves you’ll remember forever.

About This Unique Event

On this VIP, one-night-only occasion, Grainbakers Teen-Bakers invites you to experience a parent-child bonding event unlike any other. This special class has been requested countless times, and now it’s finally here. With the help of my 14-year-old son Nathan as my Teacher’s Assistant, we’re opening our kitchen to families ready to mix, knead, and create something truly special.

Each ticket grants one parent and one child the chance to team up for an unforgettable breadmaking adventure. You’ll walk away with a delicious artisan spent-grain bread dough, customized to your taste, ready to bake at home.

A Flavor Adventure for the Bold

We’re not just making bread—we’re making fun. Expect ridiculous, creative, and, yes, slightly gross flavors that will leave your taste buds buzzing. Think beyond the basics and dive into these flavor options:

• Gingerbread
• White Chocolate
• Blueberry
• Cinnamon Raisin
• Dark Chocolate and Cherry
• Rosemary & Sea Salt
• Sour Patch Kids (!?)
• Crazy Colors
• Ube Purple Sweet Potato
• Or bring your own inclusions like frozen fruit or fancy cheese (just no nuts, please).

The only rule? Be ready to let your imagination run wild!
