Baking and Pastry Arts Degrees and Certificates
The New England Culinary Institute student studying Baking and Pastry Arts is as much artist as technician.
You will learn to create pastry specialties that can be appreciated by the most discriminating consumer. But you will not be in class in just any kitchen; you will be learning and preparing award-winning breads, sumptuous desserts and other baked goods in our retail outlets from the very first day of class. At NECI you will be in class alongside Chef Instructors; with this kind of individualized attention, you will develop the foundation skills necessary to perform effectively in most any food service operation.

"I meet and work with a lot of great people, but there's something different about graduates from New England Culinary Institute. It's their work ethic and attention to detail. You just don't find it everywhere."
-Duff Goldman, host of the Food Network's Ace of Cakes.
