In this class, you’ll learn the techniques and skills you need to make seasonal American-style ice cream, sorbet, and custard. Your instructor, Jordan Mason, will teach participants how to bring your ice cream to the next level with sauces, toppings, and seasonal add-ins. Participants will be able to customize their own ice cream base to take home with them, and the class will churn some to taste test as a group. This class will also teach methods for making ice cream at home without an ice cream maker!

Jordan recently graduated with a dual degree Masters of Food Studies/MBA from Chatham University. She has over ten years of kitchen experience, a Baking and Pastry Arts degree from Johnson & Wales University, and a Bachelor's in Small Business Management and Entrepreneurship. During her undergrad, Jordan worked at Market Street Pastries in Blairsville, PA, and also owned a side business creating custom cakes, cookies, and pastries for customers in her hometown.
She then moved to Portland, Oregon for 4 years and quickly became the Pastry Chef for Bon Appetit Management Company at Reed College. Here, she was able to refine her skills and use her creativity to feed several hundred students daily, create desserts for catered events, and even had the opportunity to participate in gingerbread competitions. She led her pastry team to place second in the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry Gingerbread Competition in 2016, and first place in 2017. Although not in a kitchen anymore, Jordan currently works in local food at Harvie Farms Pittsburgh connecting directly with local farmers, makers, and chefs to get their products distributed throughout Pittsburgh.
