I honestly do not have enough words to describe my experience at the Pastry Academy. I was very…read morefortunate to attend the January 2020 session at the Academy. The 10 week program went by so quickly, yet so much was learned during that time! Both Chef Amaury and Chef Michel are highly skilled and talented professionals. Myself, having been working in the industry for about 6 years coming into this, learned SO MUCH. In our group, we had a large variation in levels of experience within the industry. I believe that every single person was able to take a lot out of their experiences. Chef Michel, who does the majority of the lessons, has an incredible knack for teaching. He is able to explain things so that the most unexperienced student is able to understand, and more experienced do not feel as though they are wasting their time in the slightest. His skills and knowledge is absolutely incredible. We were all very fortunate to have such a talented chef to pass on his knowledge. Not only this, you can see he is a person who doesn't take life too seriously, so there is laughter and fun all day long. Chef Amaury teaches a few of the lessons, but not all. This allows him (in a non Covid world) to continue to travel globally and teach his masterclasses. He does also teach some of his masterclasses at the Academy. There was a chocolate showpiece class in while I was there, and it was amazing to be able to see him work his magic. Everyone was just in awe seeing him work. The final class at in the program was the masterclass with Chef Amaurys signature line of cakes. MIND BLOWN. the imagination, creativity and skill that these take, seriously in awe. And then of course there is the beautiful Fiona who is the director at the Academy. From time to time you can see her popping out of the office, camera in hand to snap some candids. And if there is any questions or extra assistance needed, she is the person to go to! I have always taken an interest in entremets, but my interest and skill in other areas has very much grown since being in Vegas. Between new techniques, methods, ideas and the RECIPES (these are gold, and extremely valuable pieces of paper that you are able to leave with). To wrap up, I have no regrets having attended the Academy. I have taken so much from my experienced and would do it again in a heartbeat.

Hey there! I just…read morehad to reach out because I'm still buzzing from the incredible cocktail party we hosted recently, and it was all thanks to Chef Lisa Cornish and her amazing team! We had a pretty intimate gathering, about 40 wonderful guests, complete with a fantastic bar, delicious hors d'oeuvres, and some truly divine desserts. Honestly, from the moment the first guest arrived, Lisa's staff were absolutely on point. They made sure everyone felt totally welcomed and completely taken care of, which was just so lovely to see. It felt like every single person on her team had a genuine smile for every request, big or small. Their professionalism combined with such warmth really shone through. They were, without exaggeration, simply outstanding. My guests haven't stopped talking about how impressed they were with everything - the food, the drinks, and especially the impeccable service. It truly made the evening a memorable one for everyone, and I couldn't be happier. Lisa is a dream to work with!! Just wanted to share this glowing feedback.

Lisa and her assistant were there very early and did a fantastic job preparing dinner. Lisa and her assistant were very personable and we even got a little bit of a comedy show. Our meal started off with the lobster bisque which was absolute perfection. Next we had a wedge salad, which was topped with bacon and blue cheese, and some other items, including tomatoes. I am not a wedge salad person, and I was converted. For our meal we had filet mignon on top of a bed of potatoes with asparagus. It was absolutely delicious and I could barely finish it. The meal ended with crème brûlée, which I cannot say enough great things about. Overall, it was one of the best dinners I have ever had. From the presentation, to the wonderful personalities of Chef' Lisa and her assistant, to the great company, it was a beautiful night with beautiful food.

She shares her techniques openly, explains the reasoning behind every process, and challenges her students to think beyond recipes and develop their own creative voices. The program was exceptionally well organized, and the range of products, techniques, equipment, and possibilities we explored was incredible. Melissa's approach to dragees, candy bars, bonbons, flavor development, and modern production completely changed the way I look at chocolate. Even as an experienced chocolatier, I left with new techniques, fresh ideas, and a renewed excitement for what is possible. The entire team worked incredibly hard throughout the week and created a professional, inspiring environment. Melissa's artistry is unmistakable, but what impressed me most was the depth of knowledge behind it. She teaches you not simply how to reproduce her work, but how to understand it. She loves what she does and that passion can be felt through this bootcamp. This was an invaluable investment in my education, and I would enthusiastically recommend the school to any serious chocolatier or pastry professional. Melissa Coppel is a true innovator, an exceptional educator, and an absolute force in the chocolate world. It was my pleasure to spend a week with her.
