Are you an aspiring, ambitious entrepreneur-to-be who loves food? The culinary arts are a great way to bring your passion to life! If you enjoy travelling and discovering new cultures and cuisines, and value the difference between a moelleux and a fondant, then we are the right choice for you!​​

With two campuses, one in the historic centre of Lucerne and the other lakeside at Le Bouveret, Culinary Arts Academy Switzerland offers an innovative educational experience. Equipped with state-of-the-art kitchens and benefitting from multiple professional partnerships with industry pioneers, your time with us is a unique opportunity not to be missed!​

Your education with us will prepare you for your future career journey as we focus on entrepreneurship as well as kitchen skills. With hands-on classes and small class sizes, you will have the opportunity to develop your craft both inside and outside of the kitchen and the classroom. Our state-of-the-art kitchens also offer you the ideal learning environment to hone your skills.

As of summer 2016, our Le Bouveret campus is now also home to The Mosimann Collection: A Culinary Heritage. This unique collaboration houses memorabilia gathered by Chef Anton Mosimann (OBE) throughout the span of his highly successful career. As a regular visitor to his collection, a surprise cookery session is always welcomed by the students and provides enormous insight into the professional world.

With multiple professional partnerships, including Ritz Paris and Ritz Escoffier, you will benefit from a wealth of expertise as well as unique internship opportunities in some of the most highly sought after establishments to launch your career.
