History
Established in 2017.
Cocina Corazón means Kitchen Heart - "I believe that cooking from the heart, with love, transforms every dish into an exquisite delicacy to be shared, an experience for the palate, and a soothing moment for the soul."
This project was born when I decided to share my Mexican heritage with the Colorado community. Many of my friends wanted to learn some of my dishes and because these are family recipes from different regions of Mexico, they were amazed by the flavors and textures. I finally decided to create a business to teach and share all my recipes with more people, so they can see the difference between the TexMex food and genuine Mexican cuisine.

Bárbara Santos (or Barb, as family and friends know her) was born in Mexico City. She offers in-home cooking classes, chef-at-home service and catering for small groups from 10-30 people. She is passionate about sharing her Mexican heritage with the Colorado Springs community. Coming from a traditional Mexican family, she grew up surrounded by the aroma of delicious Mexican food -"I used to love walking the street mercados (markets), where I could taste every fruit and enjoy the freshness, beauty and colors of the produce. All of my family stories began in our cocina (kitchen)".
