Pastry Arts Program Details


Intensive Pastry Curriculum
Pastry Arts curriculum is broad and intensive. You learn the important formulas for such basic building blocks as pâte à choux, pâte brisée, and pastry cream. Pastry is both an art and a science. At Culinary School of the Rockies we balance, integrate and teach both of these important concepts. Our pastry curriculum helps you develop skills that are applied again and again, as you create more challenging pastries and desserts throughout the program.

Pastry Arts instructors are masters of their craft.

Small Class Size — Just 16 Students
Other schools boast of their high enrollments... we boast just the opposite. You remain with the same 16-person cohort throughout the Pastry Arts Program. Unlike other schools, you are not a number, shuffled from classroom to kitchen to lecture halls, mixed up with dozens of other students. We know you and can focus on your interests, strengths and needs. From two Pastry Arts programs a year, we graduate no more than 32 students. Be one of them!

Hands-On Learning
The best way to learn pastry is by doing. Ninety percent of our pastry program is hands-on. You prepare a wide variety of pastry items and desserts each day, working closely with fellow students and Chef Instructors. You taste everything, learning to refine your skills, appreciate what it takes to get great results, and work toward culinary artistry.

"The experience of making each of the basic essentials — baking everything from pie dough to meringue — creates a confidence in the realm of trying/attempting to bake anything and everything. Since we learned the essentials, we now have a solid framework to build on."

Becky Hamner
Pastry Arts, October 2004
