Ever thought about painting… on cake?

Not icing. Not decoration.

Actual brushwork, technique and control.

Chef Keem Ooi will bring her hand-painted cake masterclass to Melbourne this winter.

This is a rare opportunity to learn something you don’t usually get access to!

Planning a team building event is rarely as simple as it sounds.

You want something engaging, well organised and genuinely worthwhile for your team.

After hosting hundreds of corporate events, we’ve learned that the most successful experiences share a few common elements:

- They’re interactive.
- They encourage collaboration.
- They create a shared outcome.

When people cook together, those things happen naturally.

That’s why corporate cooking experiences have become one of the most effective team building activities in Melbourne.

If you’re planning a corporate event and want something that feels engaging and memorable, we’d love to help.

Comment “TEAMBUILDING” to learn about formats to suit your goals, group size and budget.

This is the only other session. Once it’s gone, it’s gone.

We've been made aware that a cake decorating class promoted by Chef Taeyeon used Otao Kitchen's name and address without permission.

We want to clarify that we are not affiliated with this event and no booking or agreement was made for it to take place at our venue.

We understand how disappointing this may be for those affected. If you've been impacted, we recommend:

✔ Contacting your bank or payment provider to request a chargeback
✔ Reporting the incident to Consumer Affairs Victoria

We're incredibly saddened that our name was misused in this way and will continue doing our best to support our community and protect your trust.

Corporate Kindness in Action…

The incredible team at MVA Bennett rolled up their sleeves at Otao Kitchen and cooked 100 nourishing meals for the community, all as part of our Corporate Kindness Cooking Events.

Every participant learns new skills, cooks together, and gives back by supporting BANH Neighbourhood Houses, who distribute the meals to those doing it tough.

This is team-building with real heart.
