Finally a baking course that treats pricing and packaging as seriously as the actual pastry technique, my croissant lamination has never been this consistent.

Por fin entiendo cómo calcular precios reales.

A parte técnica de massa folhada e croissant é muito bem explicada, dá pra ver a diferença nas camadas depois de praticar algumas vezes. Gostei bastante do módulo sobre precificação, porque nunca tinha pensado em calcular custo de embalagem direito. Só achei que a parte de marketing podia ter mais exemplos práticos de como divulgar nas redes sociais.

क्रोइसां की लेयरिंग सिखाने का तरीका बहुत साफ था और प्राइसिंग वाला हिस्सा असल में बहुत काम आया जब मैंने घर से बेकिंग बेचना शुरू किया।

De technische lessen over deeg en laagjes zijn heel gedetailleerd, echt fijn als je verder wilt dan standaard bakken. Het stuk over prijzen en verpakken vond ik verrassend nuttig, want daar had ik zelf nooit goed over nagedacht. Alleen had ik graag iets meer voorbeelden gezien van hoe je klanten daadwerkelijk werft, dat blijft een beetje algemeen.

ทำขนมอบฝรั่งเศสเป็นงานอดิเรกมาพักหนึ่ง แต่ไม่เคยคิดว่าจะขายได้จริงจัง คอร์สนี้สอนทั้งพื้นฐานการอบให้แป้งขึ้นสวยและวิธีตั้งราคากับแพ็กเกจให้ดูน่าซื้อ ส่วนที่พูดเรื่องคำนวณต้นทุนต่อชิ้นช่วยให้เห็นกำไรชัดเจนขึ้นมาก ตอนนี้เริ่มรับออเดอร์ครัวซองต์จากเพื่อนบ้านได้แล้ว อยากให้มีตัวอย่างการตลาดออนไลน์มากกว่านี้ แต่โดยรวมคุ้มค่าและนำไปใช้ได้จริง

Sobrang galing ng breakdown ng lamination technique, hindi ko na kailangan mag-guess kung tama ba yung ginagawa ko sa dough. Nagustuhan ko rin yung bahagi tungkol sa pag-price ng mga produkto, dahil doon ko lang talaga naintindihan paano isama ang gastos sa ingredients at oras. Simula noon nagsimula na akong magbenta ng konting pastry sa mga kaklase.

Matagal ko nang gustong matutunan yung tamang paggawa ng croissant, yung may crisp layers talaga at hindi lang parang tinapay na pinaikot-ikot. Malinaw na malinaw yung mga hakbang dito, mula sa paggawa ng laminated dough hanggang sa tamang temperatura ng oven. Yung part tungkol sa pricing at packaging sobrang laking tulong dahil hindi ko talaga alam paano magsisimula kung gusto kong ibenta ito sa mga kapitbahay o kaibigan. Sobrang practical yung explanation, hindi lang teorya kundi may aktwal na example ng costing. Ngayon may kumpiyansa na akong sabihin na kaya kong gumawa ng pastry na parang galing sa isang maliit na bakeshop.
