PASTRY SCHOOL

Maria Selyanina

Facts:
I am Maria Selyanina.
I once had a successful business in IT, a stable job, a predictable career ahead of me.

But one day, I realised: this wasn't my path.

I found my true calling where no one expected it: in the world of chocolate, desserts and sugar.

I left everything behind, started from scratch, and step by step built my own pastry school, which today teaches students from all over the world.

But education at my school is about more than recipes.
It’s about people who dream of turning their passion into a profession.

I know how difficult it can be to take that first step, believe in yourself, and... start making a living from something you truly love.

That’s why, alongside professional pastry courses, I offer mentorship, business programmes, and consulting for pastry professionals who want more: more clients, more confidence, and more growth.

My philosophy is simple: knowledge should work for you.
No beautiful display window will help if you don’t know how to run your business.

If you feel that your time has come, welcome!
Together, we'll turn your dreams into reality.
Если чувствуете, что ваше время пришло — добро пожаловать!

Вместе мы сделаем вашу мечту реальностью.
