About Us
WHO WE ARE

The goal is to become the goto pastry shop of excellence in Paphos. It is a whole new experience for taste, as we use quality raw ingredients, and because health matters, we offer a sugar-free, vegan, organic and gluten-free dessert range. With an ideal combination of art and techniques of 5-star hotels and gourmet restaurants, we bring in town a pastry shop, where you can have a fine-dining experience. ENJOY!
Chef's portrait
23 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE
Georges Alain graduated from the world-renowned culinary school Le Cordon Bleu in Paris. Originally from Greece, he kept perfecting his skills in France with the best professional education throughout his working years, namely at Ecole Valrhona in Versailles and the Cacao Barry Chocolate Academy in Blois for chocolate making, and Stephane Klein school in Belfort, for sugar sculptures. He practiced his techniques at the prestigious Park Hyatt Paris Vendôme Hotel and the Michelin-starred restaurant Le Pur. He later took over the pastry chef position at the newly opened restaurant of famous fashion designer Ralph Lauren in Paris, the iconic venue of celebrities and fashionistas. Georges Alain worked for Dalloyau pastry shops in Paris, one of the best macaroon-makers in the world, and developed two boutiques abroad, in Baku as executive chef. He continued to extend his experience as head of production at Franck Debieu’s bakery and pastry shops L’ Etoile du Berger in Paris, and later joined the luxury Barrière Hotels and casinos in Normandy, France. His international career also includes 5-star hotels in Greece, such as the elegant Belvedere Hotel in Mykonos that hosts the amazing Nobu Matsuhisa restaurant, and a 2-year passage in London, working for Sofitel Hotel Saint James Park and the gourmet Brasserie of Albert Roux, and the fine-dining restaurant of Harvey Nichols at the Oxo tower. Eventually, he moved from Paris to Cyprus in 2019 to work as Executive Pastry Chef At Elysium Hotel, one of the best 5-star hotels on the island. After 23 years in pastry, he decided to share his passion and open his own pastry shop in Paphos to turn his international experience into unique creations for the greatest pleasure of food enthusiasts. Bon appétit!
