| Hi all, I'm new to this website. I 've just been reading through various threads but havent been really able to come to a conclusions. However the forum has helped me shortlist many things and given me a clearer picture. I have just recently moved to India after living many years in England. I have planned on a change of career as I found my new found passion for cooking...though only cakes, chocolates, desserts, and sugar craft (modelling, etc.).I am still struggling with it though as I 've only just started by reading various recipes from around the world. Also am starting a home catering business with my mom for cakes and cookies in India. But my plan is to take a proffesional training in a culinary institute and along also get a hands on expereince in a resturant or cruise ship or a bakery in europe. As of now I was bending towards LCB, paris. But after reading about the reviews in this forum...I feel skeptical about it. Money is not an issue... so the ones I've short listed are: 1.France: LCB, Lenotre, ESCF-Ferrandi school or Ecole des Arts Culinaires et de l'Hotellerie If anyone knows anyother intensive 9months-1 year pastry and chocolate making along with sugar craft courses in france or europe, I would really appreciate it. 2.NY: ice and french culinary 3.switzerland: DCT Any advice would be appreciated and even though I'll have my own business...I still feel the need to do this course and a job in europe. Thank you all for your time and replies in advance. Look foward to hearing from you. an aspiring chef |

| Thank you all for your replies. Food Pump, I can't seem to find the website for this school and the courses that they offer. Do you know of the website address? Also, is it a well known school with good reputation? thanks marypoppins |

| Hi Marypoppins Its interesting to see that you have an interest for sugarpaste modelling too. I am in India and conduct classes on sugarcraft. You can reach me out if I can help you in anyway. I also have had students who have passed out from LCB and you can reach out to them for a firsthand feedback. TC Swati SugarcraftIndia |
