This includes hands-on experience with high-hydration doughs, natural starters, and modern innovations like sourdough fermentation. From perfecting the classic baguette to the more intricate pains au chocolat, you’ll gain a solid foundation in both traditional and contemporary baking methods.

Pastry and Dessert Integration

Beyond bread, you’ll receive exposure to pastry and dessert training. Grasp techniques in pâte sucrée, pâte sablée, and choux pastry, as well as creating elegant tarts, éclairs, and mille-feuille.

This holistic approach adopted in our bakery arts course ensures that graduates are versatile bakers with a broad skill set.

Hands-On Training with Top-Class Bakers

After learning the techniques and recipes, it’s time to put them into practice. You’ll undergo intensive hands-on kneading sessions under the guidance of master bakers.

Being in Le Cordon Bleu allowed me to dig deeper into what I thought was soft passion had become my profession and lifestyle. I learned and explored the French way of cooking whilst at school. 

It also made me a wholesome person being able to share what I had learned from Le Cordon Bleu. As the first Ambassador of Le Cordon Bleu Malaysia, it means shouting out loud to the world that “Look, I’m a Le Cordon Bleu graduate”. 

To master the techniques, innovate and present a good cake, you need to learn from Le Cordon Bleu master chef instructors. Most importantly, being an ambassador also means to be able to represent the brand both in words and actions.

“Studying at Le Cordon Bleu exposed me to the world of French baking. I loved every minute of it, it’s a world on its own. Until today, after graduating from Le Cordon Bleu. I am still learning but I am ever grateful to my chef instructor, who has guided me and laid the foundation to the world of sourdough. It gave me the confidence to venture into the Boulangerie world, to create my own signature and to live my dream.” the culinary world.”
