Course Description

Neurodivergent friendly! Step into the kitchen lab and discover the sweet science hiding in your refrigerator! In this interactive STEM experience, students will make butter from scratch using just a jar and heavy cream. As they shake their way through the process, they’ll observe how fat molecules and motion work together to transform liquid cream into creamy butter and buttermilk. Along the way, we’ll talk about: What an emulsion is and why it’s important in everyday foods The difference between physical and chemical changes How patience and perseverance can turn hard work into something good (and tasty!) We’ll end class by naming our butter creations, testing our results, and sharing what we learned!
