Foodstirs Frequently Asked Questions

What’s included in a Foodstirs food-crafting kit?

The contents of each Foodstirs kit will vary but each will contain the same components: one sweet recipe, key dry ingredients for the sweet recipe, specialty cooking tools needed to complete the craft and a bonus savory recipe to challenge your skills.

What age is Foodstirs appropriate for?

Kids love cooking at any age. We have made our recipes easy for parents to do with their kids of any age. Children who can read can complete the easy recipes with adult supervision. That being said, we think children who are 4 years or older will fully enjoy the cooking experience the most.

Where do your recipes come from?

All of the Foodstirs recipes are created from scratch by our awesome chefs in Los Angeles.

Where are your ingredients sourced?

We use quality, natural ingredients. Our flours, sugars, and cocoa powders are always organic. Our food colorings are all made without artificial dies. We strive for all-natural, non-GMO, and sustainable when we can get it.

How did you come up with the name Foodstirs and motto “Stir It Up”?

We combined the word ‘food’ with ‘hipsters,’ because cooking is hip and cool people like to do it! Stir it up means not being afraid to explore, have fun and be creative. We hope all kids and families embrace this concept and enjoy family time in the busiest room in their home…the kitchen!
