How long do Chefs have to go to school?

Do pastry chefs who actually go to culinary school get paid more?

  • as opposed to those for instance who go and work at a Kroger for a while then open up their own bakery.

  • Answer:

    A pastry chef will make anywhere from $20,000 a year to $100,000 a year depending on where you are working. At any bakery or facility, you need a combination of both education and training in order to get a position there. A lot of companies advertise positions with the wording, "wage negotiable" This means the more education and training you have, the higher your salary demands could be. A bakery owner is different. You don't even have to know how to bake in order to own a bakery. You can hire staff that do. You just need to be an excellent businessman to make money from it.

Without an education and the certificates to show your a good cook then you have to prove it yourself. Start doing things at home for free for friends and family- all types of occasions.

Trained pastry chefs have the potential to make more money because they tend to get jobs at higher end restaurants. However, this is not always the case because one can be a naturally good pastry chef that may not need formal training. If you are personally trying to decide whether to go to culinary school or not, I highly recommend it. You can never go wrong by having my schooling and credentials.

Definitely yes having theoretical knowledge helps in culinary school you learn the science of bakery art . It would take more time to be a successful chef than who has learned through some basic training and of course he would get paid more than the one who has experience and no formal education in art of baking
