Dessert Academy. From Basics to Pastry Masterpieces

This beautifully crafted large gift edition is a practical guide to creating exquisite sweets, with a step-by-step breakdown of both key techniques and modern pastry arts. From basic principles and stable creams to complex compositions and striking showcase desserts, everything is presented clearly, logically, and professionally.

The author is Evgenia Porkhacheva, a pastry chef with over 12 years of experience, brand chef of the La Poste bakery chain, and founder of the online school Patiseri. School. She is a student of recognized masters such as Cedric Grolet, Jordi Bordas, Franck Haasnoot, Miguel Guarro, and Julien Alvarez. In 2024, she was nominated for the “Chef's BREAKFAST” award in the “Pastry Chef of the Year” category. By combining modern techniques, refined taste, and aesthetic presentation, Evgenia helps reveal the main secret of pastry mastery — the ability to transform knowledge and precision into emotions and inspiration. The author's artistic education gives her desserts special expressiveness and harmony. 

All illustrations and photographs in the book are created by Evgenia herself, with the same attention to detail, sense of composition, and love of beauty that characterize her work in the pastry arts.
