A baker is more of a generalist who bakes a wide variety of sweet and savory items including bread, rolls, pies, cakes, and more, while a pastry chef specializes in desserts and might also make non-baked goods like custards, sauces, and chocolates. They can have different levels of experience as well. \u201cBaker\u201d can be an entry-level position, but \u201cpastry chef\u201d is a title that comes with more experience and is often a managerial role.<\/p>\n<p>Keep reading to find out more about the difference between a pastry chef and a baker, and explore which career path might be right for you!<\/p>\n<h2>What Does a Pastry Chef Do?<\/h2>\n<p>Any culinary role that contains the word \u201cchef\u201d is typically an advanced one. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.escoffier.edu\/blog\/culinary-pastry-careers\/different-types-of-chef-jobs-in-the-brigade-de-cuisine\/\">Chefs are supervisors and leaders<\/a> in the kitchen, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.escoffier.edu\/blog\/baking-pastry\/the-sweet-life-of-the-pastry-chef\/\">pastry chef<\/a> is no exception. Pastry chefs create dessert menus and recipes in restaurants, pastry shops, and patisseries. They may be in charge of or own a bakery or pastry shop, or they might work in a specialty shop.<\/p>\n<p>Although they may work under the supervision of an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.escoffier.edu\/blog\/culinary-pastry-careers\/what-it-takes-to-be-an-executive-chef\/\">executive chef<\/a>, the pastry chef is generally in charge of their own department. They may work independently or they may supervise a small team of pastry cooks.<br \/>\n\t\n\t<div class=\"blog-article-callout-wrap\">\n\t\t<div class=\"blog-article-callout-text\">\n<h3>Pastry Chef in French<\/h3>\n<p>A dessert chef is often called a pastry chef or a patissier. The term for \u201cpastry chef\u201d in French is \u201cp\u00e2tissier\u201d (for a male) or \u201cp\u00e2tissi\u00e8re\u201d (for a female). It\u2019s derived from the word \u201cp\u00e2tisserie,\u201d which means \u201cpastry.\u201d<br \/>\n<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\nThe pastry chef\u2019s focus is usually on desserts and sweets. They might make French pastries like eclairs, macarons, and danish in a patisserie, or tarts, scones, puff pastries, and any manner of sweet baked goods.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_28137\" style=\"width: 778px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-28137\" class=\"wp-image-28137 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.escoffier.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Pastry-chef-placing-raspberries-on-a-desserts-768x512-1.jpeg\" alt=\"A person wearing a white chef\u2019s apron and hat leans over a cooling rack and puts the finishing touches on baked desserts.\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.escoffier.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Pastry-chef-placing-raspberries-on-a-desserts-768x512-1.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.escoffier.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Pastry-chef-placing-raspberries-on-a-desserts-768x512-1-300x200.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-28137\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pastry chef is a specialized role that often involves detailed work and managerial responsibilities.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>In a restaurant, pastry chefs often do very detailed work, plating and decorating their creations with intricate piping or dots of sweet sauces. They\u2019re also responsible for the non-baked elements of a dessert. If the dessert menu includes homemade sorbet, for example, the pastry chef will probably make it. Unlike a baker, a pastry chef usually won\u2019t make bread or other savory baked goods.<\/p>\n<h2>What Does a Baker Do?<\/h2>\n<p>\u201cBaker\u201d is a more general job title than pastry chef, and a baker\u2019s duties can include making a wide variety of baked goods. Some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.escoffier.edu\/blog\/culinary-pastry-careers\/how-to-become-a-baker\/\">bakers<\/a> do a little bit of everything, while others choose to focus on a specific niche. But overall, bakers may make both sweet and savory baked goods, from bread, cakes, and cookies to ham and cheese croissants or focaccia. Unlike pastry chefs, they usually won\u2019t have to be experts in chocolate, sugar sculptures, ice cream, and other sweets.<\/p>\n<p>A baker is usually not a manager, and they typically follow recipes rather than create their own. But that doesn\u2019t mean they don\u2019t need education and training. Bakers must understand the science behind their baked goods, and they need to know how to work commercial baking equipment. They may also have to scale recipes up or down, so they\u2019ll need to know their baking math.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_20865\" style=\"width: 778px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20865\" class=\"wp-image-20865 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.escoffier.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/loaves-of-walnut-banana-bread-dusted-with-powdered-sugar-sit-on-cooling-racks-768.jpg\" alt=\"Several rows of fresh-baked bread loaves sit on a cooling rack.\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.escoffier.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/loaves-of-walnut-banana-bread-dusted-with-powdered-sugar-sit-on-cooling-racks-768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.escoffier.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/loaves-of-walnut-banana-bread-dusted-with-powdered-sugar-sit-on-cooling-racks-768-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-20865\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A baker\u2019s responsibility often includes making large amounts of baked goods.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Bakers may also do less decorative work than pastry chefs. Pastry chefs can make complex plated desserts, while bakers spend their days making a high volume of simpler baked goods. They may do some cake decorating, like adding some basic piping, but any intricate decorating is usually reserved for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.escoffier.edu\/blog\/baking-pastry\/7-cake-decorating-techniques-every-pastry-chef-needs-to-know\/\">cake decorating<\/a> or design specialists.<\/p>\n<h2>What About the Green Dough? Pastry Chef and Baker Salaries<\/h2>\n<p>Because pastry chefs have more responsibility, they often earn higher salaries than bakers. According to Salary.com, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salary.com\/research\/salary\/benchmark\/pastry-chef-salary#:~:text=average%20annual%20salary%20for%20a%20Pastry%20Chef\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">average annual salary for a pastry chef in the U.S.<\/a> is $68,642, while the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salary.com\/research\/salary\/listing\/baker-salary#:~:text=average%20Baker%20salary\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">average baker salary<\/a> in the U.S. is $35,021.<\/p>\n<p>Actual salaries can vary dramatically based on the baker\u2019s or pastry chef\u2019s education and experience, type of foodservice establishment, and city where they work.<\/p>\n<h2>Certifications in Baking and Pastry<\/h2>\n<p>Pastry and baking are both scientific disciplines, so formal training can be very helpful in nailing down the basics and advancing to more technical and difficult recipes. Anyone hoping to follow either path should consider getting a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.escoffier.edu\/academics\/baking-pastry-online\/\">degree or diploma in baking and pastry<\/a> or taking professional baking classes. Education is one of the best ways to build a solid foundation in baking science and to explore the different kinds of doughs and pastries.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond a degree or diploma, several reputable culinary industry groups offer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.escoffier.edu\/blog\/value-of-culinary-education\/what-are-the-different-chef-certifications\/\">additional education and certification<\/a>. The American Culinary Federation recognizes Certified Master Pastry Chefs\u2122, Certified Executive Pastry Chefs\u2122, and Certified Pastry Culinarians\u2122.<\/p>\n<p>The Retail Bakers of America offers baking-focused certifications for Journey Bakers, Certified Bakers, and Certified Master Bakers. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.escoffier.edu\/blog\/baking-pastry\/chef-colette-certified-master-baker\/\">Colette Christian<\/a>, Escoffier Pastry Chef Instructor, is a Certified Master Baker through the RBA and an ACF Certified Executive Pastry Chef\u2122. She had to bake dozens of perfect pastries over two days to earn the RBA title.<\/p>\n\n\t<div class=\"blog-quote\">\n\t\t<div class=\"the-quote\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"quotes\">\u201c<\/div>\n\t\t\t\u201cI pursued certifications because I always wanted to be taken seriously and to have a credible voice.

Both professionals need to know the principles of baking and the science behind why a recipe works. They need to understand different baking techniques and how to work at scale, making larger or smaller batches of product based on the needs of the business, and they both need some decorating skills.<\/p>\n<p>Equipped with these same building blocks, students on both paths can go on to learn more in the workplace and grow into their future careers.<\/p>\n<h2>Where Will Baking Take You?<\/h2>\n<p>What if you know you want to bake, but don\u2019t know if you\u2019d rather build a career in a busy bakery or a fine dining pastry department? That\u2019s okay!
