Discover new ways to present and decorate food using the delicate exotic art of fruit and vegetable carving that will astound and fascinate all who see it. The School runs classes every day of the week to suit your schedule and can tailor these to your specific requirements.

Fruit and vegetable carving is a Thai royal court culinary art that developed during the Ayutthaya period (1350-1767). The aristocratic art reached its peak when the ladies of the court of King Rama II (1809-1824) mastered the skill of creating flowers, fish, baskets and other decorative objects from water melons, yam, cucumbers, onions and other similar common garden produce.

We have worked with many top-flight clients in this field and know exactly what you need to enhance your skills. We will be able to identify which designs are most important for your needs. We also offer free 1/2 day foundation courses for professionals that will enable you to gain confidence in carving and familiarise you with the various techniques. The Krua Thai Cookery School is simply the best place to learn fruit carving.

The entire lesson will consist of learning the special techniques involved in carving and no time is wasted in unnecessary preparation. The Krua Thai Cookery School prides itself in taking all the effort out of learning and leaves the student to enjoy an intensive but stress-free, enjoyable and informal new art form. Students will begin by learning the basic cuts and work up to complex series of cuts and designs.

Learning fruit carving from a book is virtually impossible if beginners are to master all the delicate manoeuvres and angles that the knife needs to make and how the knife must be held to execute the numerous and varied designs. Just one lesson from us is all you will need to achieve professional results. Students will be taught the importance of holding the knife at the correct angle and will learn the ideal depth of cut needed to produce exquisite fruit carvings. Through our unique teaching approach, we are confident that even students who have no previous experience will be able to achieve superb results in just a single day. Students who have completed a course are welcome to call on our help at any time.
