Culinary Schools


Ice carvers and students from around the world ask AICD to recommend culinary schools, culinary institutes, and culinary academies. Based upon 30 years of personal experience and client testimonies, we are pleased to refer the Top 65 Culinary Schools and Culinary Institutes. These schools did not pay a fee to appear on this list.



AICD is dedicated to providing the most comprehensive training in ice sculpture, fruit carving, and vegetable carving possible to meet the needs and safety standards of ice sculpture companies, hotels, caterers, country clubs, and culinary schools around the world seeking to employ highly qualified, professionally certificated chefs and ice carvers.



Providing far more instruction than what mere demonstrations of complex carvings can provide, Paul Germain's totally immersive, one-to-one, hands-on training techniques and real life applications make even the most detailed features of AICD's fascinating instructional programs come to life. Paul's break through methods of training prove to be nothing short of contagious for highly motivated chefs, culinary instructors, and professional ice carvers who want it all - their testimonials then say it all!



AICD is world renown...by those who value the best.

Wisdom worth repeating:

Pay now or pay later

Back in the 1800's, Englishman John Ruskin had quite a lot to say about the high cost of paying too little.

He wrote: "It is unwise to pay too much, but it is worse to pay too little. When you pay too much, you lose a little money and that is all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing it was bought to do".

Ruskin is also credited with another gem well worth mentioning. He said,
"I have no quarrel with those that sell for less. They know what their stuff is worth".

This wisdom is even more important when it comes to securing the kind of high quality instruction that makes amazing careers and reputations possible.
