Professional Baking and Pastry Diploma

The new Professional Baking and Pastry Diploma Program at Kitchen Academy's Sacramento campus applies the exclusive Accelerated Training System™ to the pastry kitchen. Starting with the fundamentals, and layering on increasingly challenging techniques as the stages advance, the program is designed to help prepare students for careers in the professional pastry kitchen in as few as 30 weeks. The 40-credit Professional Baking and Pastry (PBP) Diploma Program consists of five terms of study (a term is considered a 6-week block of instruction).  Students are not required to have any previous kitchen experience. Moving from introduction to mastery of breads, confections, plated desserts, doughs, cakes, decorating and more, students can use their Kitchen Academy experience to help them pursue careers in roles in a professional kitchen that may include pastry chef, confectioner, cake decorator and caterer.
