Question 1

How do BYO experiences work?

Accepted Answer

Our [BYO experiences](https://www.withconfetti.com/help-center/en/collections/6372684-byo-experiences) are **budget-friendly** and **super easy to coordinate** for any team. Because these experiences do not require shipping, they are the perfect option for international teams.

After booking, event support will share a **shopping list** of everything you need. 🛒 The items on our shopping lists are designed to be flexible, accessible, and affordable. If you’d like, you can even send an [online gift card](https://www.withconfetti.com/product/online-gift-card) to give your team a budget to purchase their own items. Please note costs may differ based on region and availability.

As with any Confetti event, you’ll hop on a Zoom call with a host that will lead the experience with your team!

Question 2

Who is the host for this experience?

Accepted Answer

This experience is created and led by knowledgeable Hispanic & Latin American hosts who are passionate about bringing their cultural and historical knowledge to audiences across all demographics. Because we work with a handful of vendors, we will not be able to confirm the specific vendor until after booking.

Question 3

Can I request a specific host?

Accepted Answer

We are unable to guarantee certain hosts for the BYO Mexican Cooking Class, as their booking is dependent on availability. Please drop a note in the 'special requests' section when booking, and we'll do our best to make it happen. Either way, we promise you'll have a wonderful experience with any of our vetted hosts!

Question 4

Does this class have a cultural and educational component?

Accepted Answer

All of our culinary experts are Hispanic & Latin American, and have carefully crafted these recipes with authenticity and education in mind! Throughout the class, participants can expect to learn the background of the instructor, as well as the origin of the dish they're creating.

Our instructors strive to customize the educational component of the class to each team's preferences, so if your group has a specific area they'd like to focus on, please add this to the 'special requests' section on the BYO Mexican Cooking Class page.

Question 5

Can I substitute with beef tacos?

Accepted Answer

Taco fillings can be adjusted to your liking! Our default recipe is vegetarian-friendly. But if you want to substitute the mushroom filling with beef, we'll provide a beef taco recipe. We'll also suggest other delicious add-ons like avocado.

Question 6

Will participants with dietary restrictions be able to follow along?

Accepted Answer

Any of our classes that have vegan or gluten-free options are set up as a 1:1 swap, so everyone can easily follow along. Participants with dietary restrictions will need to bring their own alternatives.

If anyone needs further assistance, our hosts will do their best to answer any specific questions throughout.

Question 7

How is the recipe adjusted for gluten-free participants?

Accepted Answer

For gluten-free participants, we recommend buying corn tortillas at the grocery store instead of substituting the recipe with gluten-free flour, which might not produce the same result.

Question 8

How does the gift card add-on work?

Accepted Answer

Our [online gift cards](https://www.withconfetti.com/product/online-gift-card) are a great way to give your team a budget to purchase the items needed to participate in the BYO Mexican Cooking Class.

Please note that gift cards may not cover the entire cost of items as costs may vary based on participant location, brand preference, etc. If you want to give your team a little more flexibility, we recommend purchasing the higher gift card amount.

Question 9

Can this experience be shortened?

Accepted Answer

No, sorry! 😅 The BYO Mexican Cooking Class is a set length and is not customizable. Please allow about 60-75 minutes for this experience, depending on the recipe chosen.
