Mary Cech
Mary’s classes always meet with wonderful response from our students. Her classes attract professional and amateur cooks, and she is responsive to both. She is highly regarded by staff for her flexibility to accommodate requested classes. There is no finer teacher of chocolate cookery in the country!
Grant Fleming, Director, Cooks of Crocus Hill
Mary is earnest and down-to-earth, not at all a ‘prima donna’ chef. She is exceptionally patient and up beat with students, and refreshingly collaborative and flexible as an instructor.
Linda Carucci, Owner/Director, Linda Carucci’s Kitchen

Her many, many years working in top restaurants and training leagues of top pastry chefs at the Culinary Institute of America have given her an amazing depth of knowledge and experience. We spotted Mary’s unique talents immediately and have been enjoying her contributions to our programs ever since. Her positive, creative attitude makes working with her even more rewarding!
