If I become a pastry chef will it pay off?

dspartida asked:


I want to get my AA in culinary arts to become a pastry chef, and after graduation open a small bakery. Working for the public for wedding, catering and so on…

Will it pay off?… Will I really make ANY money?

    What a sweet job!

    Honestly at the price of wedding cakes today, I would say it will pay off. My cake was over $400 and it was a disappointment.

    If you study hard and learn to be an excellent pastry chef, then there is a good chance you will make money. But you won’t see any profits from your business right away. You have to build a clientele and a good reputation, plus most small businesses don’t just take off and get rich. It will take some time, but with the right attitude, talent, and patience, yes, I think you will have a good chance to make money, as long as you aren’t surrounded by ten other bakeries. Location is also an important factor.

    I hope you become a wonderful pastry chef! Maybe we will see you on the Food Network one day. Anything can happen.
