The gastronomic portrait
of an outstanding pastry chef
The story of François Perret and French pastries is one of love, of emotions and of enchantment that began in his early childhood. After working his way through the ranks of France's greatest Maisons, this creative chef, with his chocolate-colored eyes and inexhaustible energy, joined the Ritz Paris in 2016 set to reinvent the entire dessert department.
Generosity, finesse and lightness: his creations are like no other and are widely appreciated by the hotel's guests. In 2019 he was named "World's Best Restaurant Pastry Chef" and became the star of the highly successful Netflix series "The Chef in a Truck".
A feast for both
the eyes and the palate
François Perret's philosophy is for pastry to provoke pleasure, to appeal to all the senses: a pastry must create desire and tease the taste buds. Its indulgent flavor makes you want to come back to it, like a happy memory that can be enjoyed indefinitely. With his playful and unconventional creations, he invites us to rediscover the wonder of childhood.
