Pastry Making

Many Rwandese consume pastry products every day, therefore many pastry processing units are focusing on satisfying the demand. The pastries add value to raw material found in Rwanda by processing flour into cakes, biscuits and doughnuts. Pastries still lack skilled staff, thus equipping learners with pastry skills is a great opportunity to increase employment. The competence is for learners who have completed successfully the certificate III. At the end of the competence, learners will be able to make pastry products such as cake, biscuits and doughnuts. Learners will work in pastry industry performing tasks including preparation of the work area and equipment, and processing the dough into cakes, biscuits, chapatti and doughnuts. They are expected to perform these tasks respecting food quality and safety standards under minimum supervision.
