Best investment! I am almost finished with my diploma in Pastry Arts. I absolutely love the online courses. The chefs are all amazing, and the fact that I can work at my own pace is truly a saving grace. I'm a mom of 4 and just got my business fully licensed and permitted. I feel that I've learned so much from my time attending Escoffier!*
