Training of aware and capable cheesemakers
The world of milk processing can give great personal, business and economic satisfaction. Yet without the right tools it can also become a sacrifice
which does not support the company and does not satisfy those who work there.
Our vocation is to give students the tools that allow them to have control of their business.

VINCENZO TROIA
Pasta Filata Cheeses
For over 15 years in the dairy and catering sector, I have chosen to specialize in the production of stretched curd cheeses and to integrate my services by also dealing with show cooking for events, consultancy and training.
Born in Andria, homeland of burrata and large dairies, after working for 10 years in them and after having supported my teacher Francesco B., I have chosen to bring this splendid art around Italy and the world .
In fact, I decided to attend a one-year course to acquire more knowledge and obtain the qualification of dairy production technician. Precisely this was my springboard that led me to make known the real
mozzarella and real burrata made in Japan, Russians, English, Germans, Arabs and more! In January 2018, I attended another course at the International Academy of Cheese Art to learn how to produce other types of cheeses, and the following month they launched a course on pasta filata cheeses, for which I am an external consultant.
