Paris pastry prodigy Aurélien Cohen wants to share his kitchen skills through masterclasses as much as he wants to sell you his delicious creations. Cohen began his life in pâtisserie making baked goods to order from his home, and grew an online fanbase through his user-friendly tutorials, which break down the complexity of fine pastry and chocolate to help anyone get decent results at home. Visit his Asnières-sur-Seine shop for a taste of his Paris-Tahiti choux with vanilla almond praline and whipped vanilla ganache, the Miss Coco Tartlet with whipped coconut ganache, coconut confit, and coconut almond praline, or the Chocolate Hazelnut Passion Tartlet with its milk chocolate ganache, hazelnut praline, and passion fruit caramel. His signature Miss Vanilla Tartlet is emblematic of the store and Cohen’s approach, which is to build textures alongside taste. Look out for his tours, popups and book, Architexture de la Pâtisserie.
