The learning experience

Intensive training

​​The course will be held Monday through Friday and the syllabus will cover everything from International Breads, Macaroons, Tea Cakes, Choux Pastry and Petit Gateau to Decorative Cakes, Chocolate ganashes, Classic Cakes and fondant among a range of other subjects.

A focus on theory

Theory lessons are intensive, detailed and an integral part of this eight week programme. Students undergo competency mapping and have regular assessment projects to identify their learning needs and improve performance.

Regular assessment

At Lavonne, learning is but a means to a significant end. Regular assessments take place in the form of projects, record book journaling, and assignments, scrutinised and graded by our in-house chef-instructors.

Hands-on training

At Lavonne, we focus equally on practical skills as theoretical knowledge if not more! A practical exam will help students assess where they stand in terms of techniques and methods, understanding how the skills taught can be applied in the culinary world.

Practice school

‘Lavonne Practice School’ is to introduce to our students the first hand feel of being an entrepreneur. At Lavonne, we are creating a practise school, which is a training lab to bake and practise entrepreneurship. From detailed modules on production and service, to sales, customer delight and running a business - students are equipped with the skills required to set up a successful pastry business.

Core modules

  • Lavonne’s practice school is aimed to provide our students with the first hand feel of being an entrepreneur. The nuances of entrepreneurship are practised; not taught, which is why we have created a practical training lab to create, bake and practise entrepreneurship. From working in different roles of a patisserie to purchase and management software - we cover it all.

    Entrepreneurship & practice school
  • This module aims to equip students with the knowledge, understanding, and hands-on skills to prepare, cook, and bake a variety of basic bread products. Students will be introduced to the ingredients used in bread making, the dough-making process, and common kitchen practices. From soft rolls to steamed baos with fillings, this is the first and possibly the most fundamental module of the program.

    Basics in bread
  • Is there any better comfort food than warm, delicious bread? And when it’s infused with flavours and baked to perfection, a few things compare! In this module students learn how to work with highly enriched doughs such as brioche, donuts, berliners, koeksisters, babka, and more. Learn the techniques of making, shaping, proofing, baking/frying and garnishing these breads, as well as the traditional accompaniments to go with them, such as classic stirred custards, fillings, pastry creams and fresh jams.
