A titan of Italian pastry drawing fans to the country’s fashion capital. Gianluca Fusto is a master craftsman of classic techniques but brings his own voice to every creation, standing out for his stylish, minimalist aesthetic. His flagship store is a must-visit for anyone interested in exquisite pastry and chocolate. Fusto Milano is an expansive boutique, research lab, workshop, and event space, and a dream come true for Gianluca when he opened in 2020 with his wife and business partner, Linda. “Pastry is like an alphabet,” he says, “in which the letters are the ingredients, and if we know these letters and the technique well, we can compose something exceptional.”
