“My goal is to transfer my expertise gained over decades so that those who wish to learn can become new players within the pastry chef world.”

​

Within the Ferrandi school (named the “Harvard of gastronomy” by Le Monde magazine), the world’s most significant pastry chef training is taking place. Claude Chiron has been teaching at the famous institution for 12 years; the same place, where he completed his own education, 40 years ago. He teaches adults, professionals and young pastry chefs from all corners of the earth. Furthermore, he participated in the creation of the comprehensive collection of French patisseries’ history and recipes, the Ferrandi Cookbook, as well as being commissioned to design new desserts to this day.

Chiron worked in one of the citadels of French gastronomy, the Dalloyau, for 32 years where his responsibilities entailed supervision of the patisserie and the coordination of prestigious Paris events. They regularly catered desserts for opera events, as well as providing for the Elysse castle and ministries throughout Paris.

Claude Chiron’s masterclass in Budapest will focus on the new, traditional, and practical patisserie techniques, combined with economical usage of the ingredients.
