I really appreciate Chef Neelams emphasis on fresh, whole, organic ingredients and eliminating refined white sugar. My daughter remained engaged well through the camp day, and was really pleased with her increasing skills and kitchen autonomy. She got a big self esteem boost from the camp and wants to keep cooking for our family regularly.

Our children have really enjoyed learning to cook this week. They have picked up some skills, and we have enjoyed cooking alongside them as a nice break from work. The yoga segment has also been very nice. Our boys have never really done yoga for any length of time before Chef Neelams camp, and at least once or twice this week they were so relaxed during meditation that they each fell asleep on the floor! Normally we could never get them to even think about napping! Thanks for agreat week of fun and education.

Best camp of the summer! My son was more excited about cooking real food, and eating it, too! Hes more confident in the kitchen now, and more independent, willing to make an entire meal by himself. Hes already signed up again this summer.

Our daughter has loved learning how to cook with Bliss Belly Kitchen. She now cooks healthy meals for us often and leads us in family yoga and meditation to start our day. These are really valuable skills that will serve her for a lifetime. Thank you, Chef Neelam!

I had a challenge with cooking protein rich vegetarian food but now that I have learned some delicious recipes, I am going to start having Meatless Mondays! By eating less low quality meat, I can better afford to support the humane industry and lower my carbon footprint!

My 8-year-old son and I took a multi-session weekly online cooking class with Chef Neelam while sheltering in place. The meals came out healthy and delicious and inspired us to start a weekly tradition of cooking dinner together for our family once a week.

This is so much more than a cooking course for adults. It combines yoga, mindfulness, and Ayurvedic cooking. I would highly recommend this to anyone interested in a healthy cooking. Chef Neelam is extremely knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging.

Chef Neelams knowledge and insight into the principles of Ayurvedic cooking make this an educational and fun workshop. Each recipe was healthy and delicious, and we were given the practical skills needed to continue cooking successfully on our own. Neelam has empowered and inspired me!

Our seven-year old had a wonderful and truly different birthday experience with Bliss Belly. It felt so good to be teaching them something useful and interesting (making chocolate!) while also avoiding all the junk food high adrenaline of the usual kids party routines. Thanks so much to Neelam for so thoughtfully offering this.

I participated yesterday in a Chocolate Making class with a group of 5 Mother/Daughter pairs. We all thoroughly enjoyed the experience. From commencing with Meditation, learning about the history of Chocolate making, and finally personalizing our own chocolate concoction, it was a really fun, mellow activity and one that worked really well with a bunch of teenagers! Neelam is super knowledgeable and a great teacher!

Bliss Belly Kitchen conducted a Mindfulness Culinary Workshop at my company. The chocolate we made at the workshop was probably the best chocolate Ive ever had. The instructor gave us an intro to chocolate making and it was enlightening to hear about how scientific the tempering process is. I came out of the workshop with a whole new appreciation for organic chocolate and highly recommend this workshop.

We had a fantastic team offsite learning to make chocolate! I really liked their choice to use natural ingredients with minimal/no processing, and completely vegan!

My girls participated in Bliss Bellys Artisanal Chocolate and Hand Churned Ice Creams Camp -- and wow! They had a blast creating hand-crafted treats, which we all got to enjoy at home. They also appreciated having time for yoga, arts and crafts, and meeting new friends. I cant say enough good things about Bliss Belly. Its a great way to keep your kids engaged during school breaks!

Loved the culinary team builder session we had with Bliss Belly Kitchen, Chef Neelam and her team were amazing. Having a cooking class as a group was a great bonding activity and I would definitely recommend it for any team company activity.

Great camp, great experience! Neelam had put a lot of thought into planning this camp and the result was lots of fun and new experiences for the kids. My picky eater was happy to head to sessions each morning and experimented with food more than she would have at home. And there were yoga, art, and field trips too. I loved the concept, and my daughter loved the result.

Chef Neelum is an excellent instructor of both yoga and chocolate making. She made me feel less stressed and definately more relaxed. The whole team building experience was fun and a great way to get to know my coworkers better.

I am an EA and Bliss Belly hosted my team’s offsite for 35 people for the chocolate making class. Neelum was wonderful to work with, and the entire team loved everything. The meditation was my favorite part! The chocolate was amazing as well!

Neelam was very passionate about her work and it showed in her preparation for the time we spent together as a team. We learned breathing and meditation techniques before stepping into the kitchen where we made nourishing chocolate (yes, for reals) that is healthy for you! The team building experience was certainly unique. Thank you!

I recently went to an event where Bliss Belly Kitchen was hosting, and had an absolutely wonderful time. Not only was Chef Neelam extremely gregarious and kind, but she and her entire team also hosted an amazing event that fostered a stronger and warmhearted community amongst strangers. The night consisted of relaxing meditation, hilariously exciting cooking lessons, and lastly and most importantly, delicious food. I HIGHLY recommend any group/company to book with Bliss Belly Kitchen whenever you need to host a large-scale social event or even a simple lighthearted night with colleagues. (Another plus, Neelam makes fantastic homemade chocolate!)

Chef Neelam led a chocolate-making session at my daughters 9th birthday party, and it was a hit! Im the only one in my family who doesnt have much of a sweet tooth, and I really enjoyed the chocolate, too! The kids also learned about healthful eating choices (the chocolate was organic with no refined sugars) and made my daughter feel special in a gratitude circle where they each shared something that they liked best about her, very sweet. I highly recommend Bliss Belly Kitchen as a great option for a kids party.

If you want a unique birthday party that kids and their parents will be talking about for a long time, look no further than Bliss Belly Kitchen. We wanted to do something unique for our daughters 5th birthday. Wed already had several celebrations with lots of people at the park. For this one, we were fortunate enough to find Neelam and her cooking wizardry. There are so many reasons we were thrilled with her services. First, she has lots of experience creating interactive parties for both kids and Corporate Clients. She comes prepared with all the materials you need to make your dining creation. In our case it was chocolate. This wasnt just any chocolate, but chocolate made without refined sugar and the best quality ingredients. We also told her that our daughter was obsessed with cats so she found these amazing cat chocolate molds that were a hit with our daughter and her friends. She also weaves some mindfulness into the session, so the kids all got to practices some breathing techniques and centering before learning all the steps to make their own chocolate. She also lead a gratitude circle where everyone got to say an appreciation for my daughter. Her program was really lovely and all the kids seemed over the moon. Several parents told me this was the best party theyve been to. I wouldnt hesitate to hire Neelam for your next event. She is passionate about what she does and it shows. Thank you, Neelam for creating a birthday experience my daughter will never forget!
