✨ A Mini Story About My Pastry Training

I still remember the moment I fell in love with French pastry. During my training with the French Pastry School, I browned butter for the first time, and when that deep, nutty aroma rose from the pan, it stopped me in my tracks. I couldn’t believe something so extraordinary could come from something as simple as butter.

I still remember the moment I fell in love with French pastry. During training, I browned butter for the first time, and when that deep, nutty aroma rose from the pan, it stopped me in my tracks. I couldn’t believe something so extraordinary could come from something as simple as butter.

That moment changed the way I bake. It taught me to slow down, pay attention, and honor the beauty in small techniques and humble ingredients. The pastries in this collection—delicate, intentional, quietly luxurious—are inspired by that lesson. They’re my way of sharing a little of that magic with you.
