I'm a CAP pastry chef and I have all the basics, but with voila chef's courses, I really feel like I'm learning new things, more advanced and perfected techniques, and I've made considerable progress. What's more, the courses are extremely well explained, the videos are clear and easy to follow, and all the recipes I've tried have been 100% successful, and above all, they're also excellent in terms of taste.

I subscribed to Voilà Chef because I'm a pastry fan, but unfortunately a terrible pastry chef.
Thanks to the different levels and the step-by-step technique, I've been able to make some delicious Parisian palace creations!
So satisfying! Thank you Voilà Chef!
