July 31, 2012, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ont. – The Canadian Food and Wine Institute at Niagara College in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ont., is preparing to launch a new bakery and pastry arts Ontario certificate program in September 2013.

The full-time, one-year post-secondary program will run from September to April. Only 24 students will be accepted to the program, with the aim of keeping the classes focused and dedicated. An Ontario Secondary School Diploma with Grade 12 English (or equivalencies) is required to apply, and hospitality or culinary experience is recommended.

Craig Youdale, chair academic, says the college is excited about the school’s first dedicated pastry program and hopes it will become a signature program for the institute. “We have some amazing talent in our pastry staff. We wanted a program to reflect that talent.”
