Turn your passion into profession

Welcome to The Vegan Pastry Academy’s Certification Course!

I’m so glad you’re here — I want to start by saying this:
If you’ve ever felt that vegan and gluten free pastry was confusing, inconsistent, or treated as a “lesser” version of traditional pastry… you’re in the right place.

This course exists because vegan pastry deserves its own professional standard.

I’m Chef Arielle, and I’ve spent over twenty years working in professional kitchens, bakeries, and pastry environments across the globe. During that time, I saw something over and over again — incredibly talented bakers being told that plant-based pastry was too limited, too unstable, or too niche to be taken seriously.

And I knew that simply wasn’t true.

What was missing was education that explained why vegan pastry works, not just recipes that sometimes succeed and sometimes don’t.

That’s exactly what this certification was designed to give you.

In the Vegan Pastry Certification Course, you are not just learning how to follow instructions.

You are learning:

• How structure is built without eggs

• How richness is created without dairy

• How gluten-free systems behave differently

• How to troubleshoot, adjust, and create with confidence

These are the fundamentals that allow you to bake anything — not just what’s written on the page.

Whether you’re here because you want to:

• Bake professionally

• Transition into a plant-based pastry career

• Launch a bakery or product line

• Or simply master vegan pastry at a serious level

This course gives you a strong, reliable foundation to build from.

How this program works.

You’ll move through the course in structured modules, each one building on the last. We start with batters and doughs— the backbone of pastry — and move through creams, cakes, cookies, and simple plated desserts.

Every recipe is intentionally chosen to teach transferable skills, not just one finished product.

You’ll also notice that we take a calm, methodical approach here. This is not about rushing, chasing trends, or producing “Instagram desserts.” It’s about learning pastry in a way that makes sense, feels grounded, and actually works in real life.

At the end of the course, you’ll complete a Signature Dessert — a final project designed to help you apply what you’ve learned, not just repeat it.

When you complete the program, you’ll receive your Vegan Pastry Certification Course— a recognition of real technical understanding, not just course completion.

But more importantly, you’ll walk away with clarity.

Clarity in your technique.
Clarity in your ingredients.
And confidence in your ability to create vegan pastry that is consistent, intentional, and professional.

Take your time here.

Pause the videos.
Repeat lessons if you need to.
Ask questions.
Experiment

And have fun!

This is the beginning of a journey — not just through this course, but into a deeper relationship with pastry itself.

I’m honored to guide you through it.

Welcome to the Vegan Pastry Academy.

With Love, Chef Arielle.
