Cédric Grolet is simply the most talented pastry chef of his generation―he was named World’s Best Pastry Chef in 2018. Food & Wine called his work “the apotheosis of confectionary creation.” He fashions trompe l’oeil pieces that appear to be the most perfect, sparkling fruit but are, once cut, revealed to be exquisite pastries with surprising fillings. They are absolutely unforgettable, both to look at and, of course, to eat. This lush cookbook presents Grolet’s fruit-based haute-couture pastries like works of art. The chef explains his techniques and his search for authentic tastes and offers a peek into his boundless imagination―he begins the creation of each dessert by drawing. With 130 recipes featuring 45 fruits―citrus, berries, wild and exotic fruits, and even nuts―every pastry lover will want Fruit, for inspiration and to admire the edible sculptures made by this award-winning star of French pastry making. Review: Would recommend! 👍 - Been reading this book for a while so I will leave a quick review. Would say I’m a intermediate level pastry chef( worked in a patisserie for 3 years and self studying now) Ok what you need to know about this book! Firstly this isn’t really beginner friendly compared to the amount of books out there, I know you have seen the instagram reels and want to follow all his recipes 👍 which is great but this book is solely focused on how to work with fruits in patisserie also using techniques to make them look like fruits 🍋 The bonus is the amount of amazing flavours you can make with recipes in this book! Which is another reason it is a great book to have but it’s actually little limited in its areas as it expects you to have a good understanding of patisserie to begin with to be able to make these recipes. In the end Beginner friendly 3/5 Knowledge 4/5 Flavours 5/5 Creative ideas 5/5 Good book to buy to increase your knowledge regarding using fruits with pastry( basically what the book says ) 👍 Ps. Packaging that the book came in was actually good Review: Very detailed - One of my favourite books ever

Not as good as I expected
Not what I thought it would be, a good book not a great book. Nice recipes and pictures, just not the dishes I expected. Nice for a coffee table.

Beautiful
Perhaps not suitable for the average home cook as most of the recipes are very long and involved but an absolutely gorgeous book.
