Pierre Hermé Paris - London 4.82

Heir to four generations of Alsatian bakery and pastry-making tradition, Pierre Hermé began his career at the age of 14 as an apprentice to Gaston Lenôtre.

Famous all around the world, the man that Vogue called "the Picasso of Pastry" revolutionized pastry-making with regard to taste and modernity. With "pleasure as his only guide", Pierre Hermé invented his own unique world of tastes, sensations and pleasures, an original approach to the profession of pastry chef which led him to revolutionize even the most firmly entrenched traditions.

Created in 1997 by Pierre Hermé and Charles Znaty, the company has been expanding strongly since 2010 on the international scene with several boutiques now located in Europe, Asia and the Middle East. The first Pierre Hermé Paris boutique opened in Tokyo in 1998, followed in 2001 by a boutique in Paris at 72 rue Bonaparte. Success was immediate in Tokyo and Paris alike.

Pierre Hermé Paris operates an online boutique at www.pierreherme.com, is a member of the Comité Colbert and has established partnerships with the Raffles group, Ritz Carlton group and Dior since the opening of the Café Dior by Pierre Hermé in Seoul in June 2015.

In June 2016, Pierre Hermé received the title of World’s Best Pastry Chef by the World’s 50 Best Restaurants Academy.
