PREMIER SPONSORS:
 The Cambridge School of Culinary Arts (CSCA) was created in 1974 by Roberta L. Dowling, CCP with classes in classical European cookery from her home. With the expansion of the program Dowling moved the program to its current location at 2020 Massachusetts Avenue in Cambridge, MA. The program grew to over 400 students by the 1980s when Dowling decided to apply for accreditation for the school. The school was accredited in 1981 by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Department of Education and then by NATTS (National Association of Trade and Technical Schools) in 1989. CSCA offers several certificate and professional programs, including a culinary studies and pastry specialization. It also offers a variety of open-enrollment, one-day classes available to the general public.
The Cambridge School of Culinary Arts promotes Guild events for enrolled students to receive credit for hands-on work outside the classroom alongside our formidable guest chefs.

Kerrygold
Yes, there's a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. It's found in each blade of grass growing in Ireland's lush pastures. Small herds of cows graze freely, and the milk, rich in beta-carotene from the grass, produces butter and cheeses of an exceptionally golden hue. Today, dairy products continue to play an important role in Irish cooking. Cooperatives of farmers, creameries and cheese makers provide delicious Irish butter and cheeses throughout the U.S. under the Kerrygold label.
