It is not said in vain that pâtisserie is an art. Sandi Planinšek is a chef by education and a passionate pastry chef by heart. Favorite desserts of this young and aspiring pastry chef are those in the shape of fruit, and he is currently creating his own style of desserts at a renowned restaurant. His dessert display case is reminiscent of a freshly picked autumn crop ranging from ripe pears to shiny hazelnuts. He is most proud of the hazelnut-shaped dessert, as he says it is technically the most demanding.
Any pâtissier needs to be well-versed in the basics, regardless of whether you are creating desserts only at home and for your loved ones, or you have already taken your home creations one step further. By sharing the basics of pâtisserie, Sandi will walk you through the online course ranging from the properties of the basic ingredients to the recipe for a delicious chocolate cake.
"The emphasis will be mainly on the practical part of obtaining skills, and after each part, I will challenge you to the BAM pâtisserie challenge."

My opinion about pastry challenges is that I learn various new baking techniques and, of course, that I can look at the content several times and repeat the exercise if I get something wrong.

I received the online education as a gift. Great system. On my birthday, I received a link in my inbox and the gift was already waiting for me. Thank you, I think this is the best thing I could have gotten for my birthday!

Excellent online education structure. I like that Sandi starts by explaining the basic ingredients and tools, before he gets down to making the basic dessert ingredients.
Rating was given by Minka Z., 20.05.2022
I had a hard time deciding whether to choose to buy the basics or to learn how to decorate cakes. That's why I decided to make a compromise and took both educations. I don't regret a single second of the set I learned. Quality content, congratulations.

The best! Pastry creams were my biggest challenge. Together with Sandi, I beat it, now I prepare them almost with my left hand. Thank you!

Online education of the basics of pastry making can be a bit more extensive, so you need to take your time. But thanks to the interestingly prepared content, this is not a problem at all. Keep it up, I'm looking forward to new topics.

A great way to encourage and invite new masters or mistresses to the pastry world.
Rating was given by Helena S., 12.03.2022
What I like most is the explanation of the ingredients and their properties. It does matter what kind of eggs we use and it does matter if the ingredients are warmed to room temperature or not. I'm excited about the whole project, the BAM Pastry Academy, it's a really great way to learn the basics of pastry.

Great, perfect. My wife completely buried herself in online education. A great anniversary gift idea. Well done, BAM team.

The basic education is a bit longer, but it really touches on every pastry subject.
Rating was given by Neža E., 22.01.2022
Great, hands down. I can view online education anywhere and anytime. The best thing about this is that there are also BAM pastry challenges added to each set, with which I can make sure of my newly acquired knowledge.

I thought I knew the basic ingredients for making desserts. Ha, how many things were still hidden! Thanks Sandi, now I know how to use it and I can't wait to make my next dessert!

If you follow the instructions of pastry chef Sandi, you will learn how easy biscuits are for the preparation and you will never again be afraid if it's going to succeed or not. Because it will!

So many cookie tricks and tips! Great, I'm making them for Christmas presents this year.

I would recommend this course to everyone. Pastry is a demanding industry, with the explanation Sandi gives, the first step will certainly be easier.

Wow! My chocolate mousse is perfect! Thank you, Sandi.

Everyone should know the basics of pastry making, so this online education should not pass you by! Even though I've been baking for a while, I've learned a lot of new things.

Sandi, great online tutorial on pastry basics!
Rating was given by Vesna Z., 02.11.2021
So young but so much knowledge. Well done, Sandi Planinšek!
Rating was given by Ajna H., 09.09.2021
Since I have been baking at home for some time, I was a little skeptical about buying this course. After completing the course, I can say that I gained a deeper insight into the very creation of basic biscuits and creams, which I realized at the end that I had never prepared before or at least not in this way. Also, I always mixed the masses with whisks and did not mix them in, as Sandi keeps emphasizing in the course. Now I know how to mix properly, I'm also well versed in theory, and a whole bunch of new recipes have made their way into my notebook.
“You are awesome!”

I hope to become at least somewhat of a patisserie master myself.
“Very instructive.”

It's interesting, lots to learn about ingredients and utensils, and the history and origin are also crucial ...

Excellent course!
“Loved it!”
Rating was given by Nancy H., 23.03.2021
Hats off to the master pâtissiers because they need a lot of prior knowledge in the basics of pâtisserie.
“Real fun!”
Rating was given by Megan T., 17.03.2021
I miss the demonstration of how to assemble the cake layer by layer. Otherwise, it’s a lot of fun, but stressful at the same time. Ideal for Corona times when we are all at home ...
“Great topics!”
Rating was given by Kelly P., 16.03.2021
The online courses are really great and I can’t wait for the next ones.
“You get all the useful information in one place”
Rating was given by Sophia B., 15.03.2021
Just the right contents for us amateurs. Lots of useful information in one place, no need to surf the internet for hours on end. I recommend Sandi's course on the basics of patisserie to all amateur bakers, and even to those who are more experienced in baking.
“Lots of useful information!”
Rating was given by Margaret S., 14.03.2021
I gained a lot of useful information. It might be a good idea to also show how to assemble the cake, for true beginners. Otherwise, very happy with the purchased contents.
“True master pâtissiers :)”
Rating was given by Cheryl L., 11.03.2021
All compliments to Sandi, but as a beginner, I’d have liked some more information on preparation ... The recipes could feature the method in more detail.
“You gain lots of new skills and knowledge!”
Rating was given by Claire D., 08.03.2021
I gained a lot of new theoretical knowledge and learned a lot of secrets that help make the dessert tastier. The explanation was occasionally a bit vague, but that doesn’t affect the end result and you still obtain a lot of quality knowledge.
“The BAM patisserie challenges are great!”
Rating was given by Sebastian O., 05.03.2021
I really like the BAM patisserie challenges at the end of each chapter. They allow me to test what I have learned and they stimulate my creativity. It’s excellent, I recommend it!
“Terrific online education!”
Rating was given by Susan C., 25.02.2021
I think that everyone who loves baking home desserts should download the contents and start with the online courses on basic pastry making techniques. I have to admit that up until now I didn't know you need to add some fat (almond flour, etc.) to the sponge batter to give it a better texture. I recommend it to everyone!
“Excellent!”
Rating was given by Matthew B., 23.02.2021
Impressed with the courses. I am already looking forward to new topics.
