What does a baking pastry instructor do?

A Baking Pastry Instructor teaches students the fundamental and advanced techniques of baking and pastry arts. They develop lesson plans, demonstrate recipes and methods, and guide students through hands-on practice in a kitchen or classroom setting. Instructors assess student progress, ensure kitchen safety standards are met, and may also teach about food science, menu planning, and industry trends. Their goal is to prepare students for successful careers in baking and pastry arts.
