Learn to replace gluten + lactose contained in dairy products from creams, mousses, ganache, glazes, etc.

Frequently Asked Questions

About Course Concept

What is the difference between on-site and online course?
On-site MasterClasses are intense 3 to 5 day courses organised in Bucharest, Romania in groups of 14 to 16 students. 
Courses are hands-on giving you the opportunity to experience working with Chef Richard Hawke. Recommended for students with some baking or pastry experience.  
Online MasterClasses can be taken from anywhere, anytime and by anybody. 
You can study according to your schedule, from the comfort of your home, without having to interrupt your work or travel abroad. All you need is a laptop or PC, good internet connection and the desire to learn. 
Video lessons can be revisited as many times as you desire, during the 12 months access period.
Is this a theoretical or practical course?
From our experience as educators, we believe the best way to learn is combining theory with practice. This is the principle we have structured our course around.
  Theory is structured in Module 1 - Ingredient Understanding, where we explain specific ingredients used in pastry and their role in our products;
  Starting with Module 2 we move on to Practical Learning:
 Demonstrative Video Lessons [Chef demonstrates step by step each recipe];
 Practical Assignments [Students reproduce in their kitchen the recipes and submit the results;
 Chef's Evaluation & Feedback on submitted assignments.
What does Guided Practical Learning Experience mean?
One of the strong parts of this course is the 6 weeks Practical Guided Learning [PGL] with Chef Richard Hawke and ICEP Team. 
Your practical learning experience will consist of: 
 Printable PDF Materials [Resource Center]
 Pre-recorded Full HD Video Lessons with Chef
 Practical Assignments (reproduce 3 to 5 cakes) in your own kitchen and submit the results);
 Chef's Evaluation and Feedback on submitted assignments;
 Support;
 Access to our International Pastry Community.
To give your the best learning experience with maximum flexibility, you get to choose when to start your Practical Guided Learning from our available plans. 
How long will I have access to the course?
You will have 12 months access to all learning materials counting from your enrolment date. 
During the 12 months, you can choose when to start your 6 week Practical Guided Learning experience.
At the end of the 12-month period, you will be able to prolong your access to the content with our Subscription Plans.
How much time should I invest into this course?
During the 6 weeks of Practical Guided Learning, we recommend to invest at least 10 to 15 hours/week, to go through video lessons several times and follow through all your practical assignments, to get the most out of your course.
After all, practice makes perfect!
Keep in mind, the more time you invest, the better results you will have!
