The Journey Begins

My “affair” with pastry has been the longest relationship that I have had in my life (Sorry Mr. Hubby!☺). I knew from a young age that pastry is where my heart belonged. Although I took quite a few detours to get here, I am so excited to get started on this adventure and share my experience, including the ups and downs, with you along the way.

In France, to become a pastry chef, you must obtain a certificate called the CAP Patissier by taking a national exam. There are two ways to obtain said certificate, through a program at a technical school or as an individual.

I have decided, with the support and encouragement of Mr. Hubby, to study my butt off and take the exam next spring.

So, here’s to the adventure to come and bring on the butter!
