It gives me life, helps me appreciate it, and sparks a desire in me to share everything I know about it with others. <\/p>\n<p>The more years I work with chocolate, the more I fall in love with it! It is a unique ingredient, not only for the sensory complexity of its flavor or the exciting challenge of trying to understand it, but also for its infinite aesthetic possibilities. It can be used to decorate and sculpt, almost as if it were glass or clay, creating pieces capable of delighting both the eye and the mind.  <\/p>\n<p>Each of these areas is so vast that we could spend a lifetime exploring them without ever getting bored.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eael-content-timeline-block\">\n    <div class=\"eael-content-timeline-line\">\n        <div class=\"eael-content-timeline-inner\"><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"eael-content-timeline-img eael-picture \"><i class=\"fas fa-pencil-alt\"><\/i><\/div><div class=\"eael-content-timeline-content\"><span class=\"eael-date\">1969 - Biography<\/span><h3 class=\"eael-timeline-title\">Humble Origins<\/h3><div class=\"eael-timeline-excerpt\"><p>My mother was one of the worst cooks I\u2019ve ever known.

Besides, I always had a complicated relationship with food, so it\u2019s quite surprising to my family that I ended up becoming a chef.

And besides, I\u2019ve always had a sweet tooth! <\/p>\n<p>I trained in hospitality in London and left home at 16. Well, actually, I left my father\u2019s house. I had already left my \"home\"\u2014my mother, my sisters, and my brother\u2014at 13, when I moved away and they stayed in Wales. My parents had divorced when I was 9.   <\/p>\n<p>So I found myself alone in the big city. After finishing my training, it didn\u2019t take long for me to start working in a Michelin-starred restaurant. The intensity of the work and that almost obsessive drive for perfection sparked something in me!  <\/p>\n<p>It was there that I realized I wanted to do this for the rest of my life. I knew it at that very moment. <\/p>\n<p>I sought out the best pastry chef in the UK: Robert Mey. With him, I completed my training in classic French pastry. <\/p>\n<p>Then I found someone else I admired and decided to keep learning from him: Patrick Woodside. He recommended I go to Paris. I followed his advice and landed an internship at Jamin, Jo\u00ebl Robuchon\u2019s restaurant. The chef working next to me was... Gordon Ramsay.   <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"eael-content-timeline-block\">\n    <div class=\"eael-content-timeline-line\">\n        <div class=\"eael-content-timeline-inner\"><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"eael-content-timeline-img eael-picture \"><i class=\"fas fa-pencil-alt\"><\/i><\/div><div class=\"eael-content-timeline-content\"><span class=\"eael-date\">The 1990s<\/span><h3 class=\"eael-timeline-title\">First Michelin Star Experience<\/h3><div class=\"eael-timeline-excerpt\"><p>Gordon and I crossed paths again about a year later, when he was looking for a pastry chef for the restaurant he had just opened: The Aubergine. I started working there the next day... and I gave it my all: blood, sweat, and tears for the next three years!<\/p>\n<p>But I still felt something was missing, both in my cooking and in my personal life, so I decided to leave it all behind and go looking for it.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, I found what I was looking for thanks to the incredible Roca family, in a small town in Catalonia, where I still live today.<\/p>\n<p>An accident forced me to spend six months in a wheelchair.
