Design notes

The portrait version is set like a tall recipe card for a binder or a kitchen wall. One left-aligned column reads from top to bottom: the title over a tomato red rule, From the kitchen of with the name written under it in a hand script, the class, then four boxes for duration, format, level and the date issued. The skills sit in a two by two grid of ticked ingredients and the method runs in full-width numbered steps. The instructor and head of school sign beside the card number and QR code, and the wooden spoon and rosemary rest on the top corner. Choose it when the certificate will be framed upright.

About

Cooking Class Certificate Template, Recipe Card Portrait

Students leave a good cooking lesson with new habits as much as a full stomach: a safer grip on the knife, a feel for fresh pasta dough, a sauce made from the pan they just used. A culinary school, a cooking club or an instructor who teaches in a home kitchen can mark that day with a certificate of completion, handed over at the table.

Wording on the template“Cooked a full meal from scratch at a shared station, guided step by step by the instructor.”

Post for the recipient to share

I finished a hands-on cooking class this week. I learned proper knife skills, made fresh pasta by hand and finished it with a pan sauce, then sat down to eat what I cooked. Thank you to our instructor for the patience and the good tips. My kitchen at home will never be the same. #CookingClass #HomeCooking

Printing

Printing it well

Print at actual size

Choose “Actual size” or 100% in the print dialog, not “Fit to page”, so the margins and the QR code keep their size.

Use card, not paper

A matte or silk card of 200–300 gsm (about 80–110 lb cover) feels like an award and does not curl in a frame.

Frame it

A4 fits a standard 21 × 29.7 cm frame; US Letter fits an 8.5 × 11 in frame, or an 11 × 14 in frame with a mat. Hang it upright, as designed.

Mind the edges

Most home printers leave a thin white border. For a design that runs to the edge, use a print shop or your printer’s borderless setting.
