Amaury Guichon, known as the King of Chocolate, is on a mission to spread his love for pastry making. Based in Las Vegas, he runs a cooking school and creates stunning chocolate sculptures showcased in popular Instagram videos. In Australia, he is a judge on the Dessert Masters show, where 10 talented chefs compete for the title and a $100,000 prize.
Amaury Guichon is a master chef with a mission: he wants the world to share his passion and respect for the art of making pastry. The Swiss-born, French-trained pastry maestro, who’s hailed as the King of Chocolate, is based in Las Vegas where he runs a cooking school .
Guichon describes the competitors’ skill level as amazing, explaining: “I did not expect it. I live in America and I know a lot of the big players and I’ve never seen such a concentration of raw talent and passionate people in this industry. I would have never seen that in the US and I have my own show there . It’s unique and I’m not quite sure why you have such a love for eating pastry and talented people who do it.
Guichon has an unforgiving work ethic and a missionary zeal about his quest to dazzle the world with the joys of pastry and to afford its creators the respect that he believes they deserve. He left school at 14 to start an apprenticeship and by 16 was living independently in an apartment. “I had to grow very fast,” he recalls. “I always had the support of my parents, but I had to find myself in real life real quick. I would start at 3am and all I wanted to do was chase girls.
Maybe when he returns for the recently confirmed second season, he’ll get to sample more of the local food scene that he glimpsed from where he stayed in Collingwood. “There was a bakery every other block,” he noted approvingly. “It’s crazy. In Vegas, I can name two places where they make bread.”
