Chef at Royal Air Force Club LondonFrom preparing cakes in our school to preparing my very own dessert. I’ll always thank APCA Philippines especially the chefs for my knowledge and skills to execute good pastries and for being my inspiration regarding attitude towards work. APCA Philippines is not just a pastry school, it’s a life-changing for me.

Chef at New World Hotel MakatiProud of having finished the 9-month Advanced baking course from this amazing pastry school. All chefs are so professional. I learned most of my skills here and definitely “sulit” ang tuition. A perfect choice if you are looking for one!
APCA is already my most formal education when it comes to baking and pastry. I’m so grateful I enrolled even if it’s just the weekend program because it’s only one my schedule permits. I met lot of chef, classmates and batch mates that I’m so grateful to call my friends now. If you’re already a working individual and only have weekends to give to yourself to learn about baking and pastry, I would definitely recommend you to enroll here! You would feel more like a playground rather than school.
