Great online training platform.
The videos are very detailed, and the professionals are very educational. So you can reproduce the recipes at home, even if you're not a specialist.
If you're still hesitating, go for it!

I'm a CAP pastry chef and I have all the basics, but with voila chef's courses, I really feel like I'm learning new things, more advanced and perfected techniques, and I've made considerable progress. What's more, the courses are extremely well explained, the videos are clear and easy to follow, and all the recipes I've tried have been 100% successful, and above all, they're also excellent in terms of taste.
