The second, July 16-18, offered campers who had previously taken UCann Cook Camp 101 an opportunity to work with with award-winning UConn chefs to learn advanced cooking and kitchen skills. The menu of activities at Camp 102 included the art of international ethnic cuisine, and creating pastries and breads at the UConn bakery.
