Who is it for?

Our Demuths Vegan Diploma Level 2 is suitable for anyone with good cooking skills and some understanding of vegan ingredients. You will need some basic cooking skills to attend or to have completed the Demuths Vegan Diploma Level 1 course. 

For non-professionals, we aim to increase your confidence with the more technical aspects of cooking and baking, as well as broadening your horizons of world flavours. The diploma can be used to help you launch yourself into the catering world, to help you start your own culinary business or simply to help you to expand your home cooking skills.

For vegan chefs training, this course will suit those who wish to expand their vegan menus, discovering world flavours and ingredients, and making the most of them to produce interesting savoury and sweet dishes that will appeal to all diners.

How is it run?

Our Demuths Vegan Diploma Level 2 course specialises in practical hands on cooking and covers a full range of techniques required to be an accomplished chef. It is taught over a 2 week period and repeats throughout the year. You will receive a Demuths Diploma certificate after both weeks have been successfully completed.

Over two weeks you will cover:

1: Stocks, Soups, Sauces and Pasta

 2: Grains, Legumes and Vegetables

 3: Bread

 4: Pastry, Desserts and Cakes

We will cover vegan nutritional information, planning balanced vegan meals, and presentation of dishes.

Course Details

• The course is limited to 8 people. The class size is kept small to maximize your personal interaction with the tutor and to ensure you have as much hands on experience as possible.
• You will work in pairs and individually, along with demonstrations from our chef tutor.
• On each day you will prepare and cook 6 to 8 recipes depending on the complexity of the day. You will receive an explanation or demonstration of the technique of each dish and then be expected to complete the dish successfully within an allotted time, with support from the tutor.
• You will take home a workbook of recipes including a glossary and all technical information covered in the course.
• Each day we will gather to eat some of what you make for lunch - and you're invited to take home the rest!

Our Demuths Vegan Diploma Level 2 course will set you up to continue with your chefs training on our Vegan Diploma Level 3 course.

Not only have my cooking skills improved hugely, I have learned so much that I never knew I didn't know, and I am so grateful for the warmth, good humour and patience you have in abundance.

I've felt challenged, excited, motivated every day thanks to the amount we've been able to do and how every day was new and different

A big thank you for creating a really warm and generous atmosphere in the school and for organising everything to be so accommodating of people's needs and tastes. I thought it was super kind to ask in advance for likes and dislikes and to have taken these so fully into account. It was also amazing to be somewhere where everything was so carefully sourced and there was an abundance of everything that we were all encouraged to take. Unbelievably hospitable and giving so massive thanks!

Thank you for everything - I feel very inspired and so honoured to have trained under such amazing chefs and people. If one day I'll have even a fraction of their talent, I'll be over the moon.

I really really really had the time of my life and feel blessed for all the help, knowledge and love I have received here! If I could do it all over again I would every time!
