Pastry Shop Business Plan
Web Watch is a big fan of pastries, donuts, and other baked goods.
We’ve been known to travel out of our way to eat at RESTAURANTS THAT EMPLOY THE TOP PASTRY CHEFS IN THE COUNTRY.
And now, according to DESSERT PROFESSIONAL MAGAZINE, we just need to head down to our local doughnut shop, no matter where we are in the world.
That’s because one of the winners of the 17th ANNUAL TOP PASTRY CHEF IN AMERICA competition is Christopher Boos of Dunkin’ Brands.
That’s right. Dunkin’ Brands. Parent company of Dunkin’ Donuts.
Christopher Boos, named one of the ten best pastry chef in Amercia, essentially works in a donut shop. No wonder Homer Simpson is proud of his donut fetish. Donuts are nothing to be ashamed of.
But donuts are not the only pastry that Boos knows how to make. For the competition, Boos’ featured dessert was a milk chocolate jasmine tea tart, Baskin-Robbins cranberry sorbet with soaked cherries and a Dunkin’ Dark Roast coffee crème. Of course – just the type of thing you’d find down at the local coffee shop.
Not.
Or at least, if we keep our fingers crossed, not yet. Web Watch can hope, right?
Who were the other TOP TEN PASTRY CHEFS IN AMERICA? Here’s who made the list along with Boos:
Kimberly Bugler of the 21 Club, New York, NY
Steve Evetts of the New York Marriott Marquis, New York, NY
Bill Foltz of L’Auberge du Lac Casino in Lake Charles, LA
Yannis Janssens of Fontainebleu Miami Beach, Miami, FL
Nicholas Lodge of the French Pastry School, Chicago, IL
Roy Pell of The Phoenician, Scottsdale, AZ
Michelle Tampakis of the Institute of Culinary Education, New York, NY
Robert Truitt of Corton Restaurant, New York, NY
Frank Vollkommer of The Chocolate Mill Pastry Shop and Café, Glen Falls, NY
For those of you interested, Dunkin Brands issued a press release honoring Boos’ achievement. It’s posted after the break.
