With OPERA Patisserie, Cedric Grolet turns a page and explores a new world, that of the patisserie. Taking a more radical approach, he moves away from the technicality of Fruits, his first work, toward creating dishes with even more freshness, immediacy, and taste.
From the traditional baguette to the Saint-Honoré, the pain au chocolat to apple pie, discover 100 simple effective recipes for any time any time of day, following the rhythm of his new eponymous boutique.
At 7 a.m., the breakfast pastries are ready; at 11 a.m., the French pastries.
At 3 p.m., the desserts and frozen fruits are prepared while you wait for an afternoon snack. With 5 p.m. comes the day's last batch of bread.
Cédric Grolet, one of the most influential pastry chefs in the world, breaks the rules and questions everything so he can offer you a new, surprising, and inspired patisserie.
