What is Fruit and Vegetable Carving?

The traditional culinary art form of fruit and vegetable carving is known as Kae Sa Lak in Thailand. It is been around for seven centuries and is used for the purpose of entertaining guests and showing respect. This culinary art form is being seen much more today in hotels, cruise ships, finer restaurants, and at special social events such as weddings, corporate functions, exhibitions, trade shows, product launches, grand openings, conventions, etc.

When the 60th anniversary of the King of Thailand’s asent to the throne took place, dignitaries, kings, presidents and prime ministers from all over the world enjoyed a lavish dinner adorned with exquisit Fruit & Vegetable carvings.

Although it requires special skills and techniques to master correctly, our method of teaching makes it possible for students to learn in a short period of time.
