On Nov. 1 at Vancouver Island University, Chef Christophe Bonzon, executive pastry chef and owner of Chez Christophe in Burnaby, B.C., will demonstrate how to craft entremets, chocolate bonbons and chocolate garnishes, and discuss how the bakery streamlines production for fine pastries.
The veteran, award-winning chef has studied under some of Europe’s grand masters in pastry and chocolate in his native Switzerland, Australia and France. Don’t miss this informative session, which includes a gourmet supper produced and served by VIU’s culinary students.
