Fabiola Donnelly leads Not Just Baked Cooking Classes and is a cooking instructor, an author, a photographer, and a recipe developer. Her stated hope is that when people visit Not Just Baked they feel welcome and learn more about cooking and baking. She has taught many students, from advanced classes at culinary competitions to cooking with kids at local farmers markets. She offers cooking classes in Vancouver, Washington and Portland, Oregon, and also teaches monthly classes at Portland Cookshop, where PCS offers classes for adults and kids. Classes there vary from hands-on baking with kids, to beginners interested in learning a few tools to get started, and to more experienced cooks with chefs from around Portland. She is available to teach classes in homes using the family’s own kitchen tools, and she states that this can be done in any kitchen size, big or small, focusing on cooking with the basics and what is already on hand. Cooking classes are described as still in full effect at Not Just Baked, and people are described as driving from around the Vancouver and Portland area to attend, including at an indoor space next to Burnt Bridge Creek Cellars called Class Cooking, which is used for classes and private events. She also appears monthly on a live TV show in Portland sharing recipes from her website while representing food companies in sponsored segments, and she has been a judge at culinary competitions in Oregon for the past three years.
