A very enjoyable fun class where we felt comfortable and welcome .
A huge range of duck finger foods were created , taste tested and discussed.
The recipes with instruction suit all abilities and use ingredients readily accessible in most home kitchens.
Once demonstrated these recipes are easy and fun to make at home – our children were impressed with our recreations!!
Great gift for all ages .

— Janete

Great class but best to be with a friend to work together on your 2 dishes.
2-3 dishes I wouldnot bother doing at home but good tasting them on the night
Helped throughout the night .
Lots to eat at the end along with a glass or two of champs/ wine .

This is my second course at Luv a Duck, once again one of the best courses I have done, Wendy does a fantastic job, the food was delicious and easy to make receipes, I took my daughter she also thoroughly enjoyed herself. Highly recomend the courses at Luv a Duck, Sheryl

— Sheryl

The food was delicious and plentiful. My only gripe was that the instructor explained the entire menu before we got into the kitchen, and again afterwards before we started cooking – there was a lot of wasted time! Also the level of assumed general cooking knowledge is low, so be prepared for that if you’re already comfortable in the kitchen.

— Susie

Loved it. Wendy is an excellent teacher and very good at explaining everything simply.
No recipe was too complicated and everything was delicious.

— Jill

This was my second cooking class at Luv A Duck and both were wonderful. Wendy and Joan made us feel very welcome and guided us through the day with ease and great courtesy. Loved the food and will make some of the receipes very soon. Thank you.

— Jo

Thanks to Carol and Liz for a fun night with yummy food. I learnt so much and found it very enjoyable.

— Jill

We felt the class was so hands on. Was very enjoyable. Loved tasting what we all made. Would highly recommend anyone wanting to do course.

— Phil

Fingerfood workshop sounded promising and the food that was prepared was interesting and delicious. Unfortunately there was a delayed start to the class due to an administrative error in the arrival times, which made the whole workshop / cooking appear rushed and left a negative vibe until the end of what should have been a relaxed conclusion of our lunch. That was disappointing indeed!Still Luv a duck is a wonderful product and I will happily continue cooking it!

— Marion

The finger food class was very informative and a great learning experience. The staff were very supportive and willing to assist. I was very surprised in the amount of recipes we completed in the
three and half hours and by the way the food was very tasty.

— David

Luv A Duck is fantastic. This is the 4th or 5th class I have done with them. Knowledgeable instructors. Super helpful assistants. Quality food. Easy to follow instructions. Modern facilities. Fantastic way to spend a chunk of your day!

— Lee

Wendy and Rhonda make the experience easy and the food is delicious and so much of it! It was my second course at Luv-a-Duck and it won’t be my last.

— Melanie

This was the 2nd class we have done and they have both been really enjoyable and delicious! It’s a fun way to spend an evening, picking up a few tips and getting to enjoy some great dishes.

— Julia

We had such a fun time on the duck canapés class. Each couple made two different canapés to share with the group over a glass of wine and everything was well organised. A perfect introduction to cooking duck at home for those who love duck but are not sure where to begin with cooking it. Definitely looking at attending future cooking classes.

— Shane

We had a marvellous morning cooking all kinds of different dishes, Wendy and Mark were very helpful and informative. The food was amazing, from our morning we can now confidently cook all kinds of finger food.

— Heather

Learnt a lot, ate a lot and had lots of fun

— Heather

What a fantastic class! Very professional, but fun. Fantastic recipes that would be easy to re-create at home. We made about 10 different finger foods that were all delicious. The people running the class were incredibly welcoming, really knew their stuff, and were open and communicative and dealt with all our question. I would highly recommend Luv-a-duck cooking class, and plan to go again sometime in the future.

— Rachel

Highly enjoyable class, great teachers, super tasty recipes, abundant food and great insight into a proud and successful company. Anyone who loves duck will have fun at these classes. My regret is not clearing my fridge before the class so I could take full advantage of the 10% discount in the shop after the class.

— Jill

Wendy managed the 6 groups with ease. She was aware of what was happening, and managed to ‘be there’ every time we needed help. She made a very positive contribution to the activities.

— Ron

The trainers Wendy and Nicki were incredible. Very friendly and knowledgeable, and the food that was provided was incredible.
Left rolling out the building and will most definitely be doing more of these classes!

— Claire

We're a ducking good time

We’ve got hands-on classes, talented chefs, and a whole lot of fun!
