How will Cyril Lignac’s Cake Academy take place?
They are therefore 24 to try their luck and see if they are truly capable of becoming professional pastry chefs. Each day, the candidates will follow courses, tutorials and different exercises will be imposed on them. “We tried to get as close as possible, with the teachers, to what a course can be like in a school like the Institute of Culinary Arts. This is accelerated training“, explains producer Jérémie Fazel. Their objective is therefore to help them progress and prepare them for this difficult environment. In view of the final stake, Cyril Lignac will therefore want to get the best out of these candidates. See what they really have in their guts. Throughout the adventure, 21 big names in the kitchen will come to challenge the candidates and provide them with masterclasses to make them envious, like Pierre Hermé, Nina Metayer, Philippe Conticini; of the Meilleurs Ouvriers de France Philippe Bertrand and Guy Krenzer, or the starred Frédéric Anton and Sébastien Vauxion.
Above all, candidates will come face to face with the harsh reality of the job thanks to application exercises during which they will have to prove themselves in the restaurant of the Academy where they will have customers of outsiders who will taste their work. Every Friday, the two best of them will also have the chance to have immersion courses in luxury hotels and renowned boutiques with the brigades already in place, while the two who have least seduced the palaces will face each other in a final face-to-face to try to save their skins in training. What about the final? Only the two best amateurs will compete for the place of the winner during a final where the pressure will be at its height. During a day, everyone will set up their ephemeral pastry in the heart of Paris. They will then offer passing customers several cakes as well as different sizes. It is not the one who will sell the most products who will win the show but the one who will have seduced the greatest number, as well as the teachers and Cyril Lignac.
