How to take your baking and pastry career to the next level

In our industry, customers are getting used to seeing molecular recipes, gels, foams, pralines and chocolate bars on their menus. Before the meal even begins, more customers are asking for their bread basket to contain spelt, sourdough, rye and ‘free-from’ breads. Even the bread basket needs to show innovation now…

The bottom line? Pastry chefs and bakers need to stay ahead of the game in order to be successful and progress your career. Don’t forget, professional chef training is not only the key to boosting your career, it’s also great fun to learn, meet and network with your industry peers.

Why should you take a professional course?

Chef Roland Eitzinger, Head of Swiss Bread and Baking at Dubai’s prestigious Richemont Masterbaker Centre of Excellence in Baking & Pastry, has overseen the successful training programs of thousands of chefs. His advice to chefs of all levels who want to increase their skills levels and knowledge of techniques is, “Without a doubt, taking a professional level bakery or pastry course brings out a new level of ‘best’ in you and raises your standards. Not only this, the pastry chefs and bakers we train usually leave with a new level of confidence that they take to their workplaces. The more techniques you learn, the more valuable you become in the industry.”
