perfecting knowledge

Chef Ivo with Chef Christophe Michalak

But really, who are we?

I not only took courses with great world Chefs, including the illustrious Chef – World Pastry Champion – Christophe Michalak. 

But thanks to my dear wife, who worked by my side, inspiring and encouraging me daily, we traveled all over France.

As well as, we dialogued there, perfecting our technical knowledge with famous Chefs from Paris.
We chased after our dreams.

And that's when we decided to return to our roots and open our Pâtisserie Dacquoise, where everything was meticulously planned.

A universe of sensations and pleasure that “apporte une vie de BONHEUR” to us.
(Chef Ivo Camões)

At our Pâtisserie, each dessert is a work of art, reflecting the passion and dedication we have for pastry making.
