Le Cordon Bleu Melbourne student’s Masterclass in Patisserie

Executive Pastry Chef & Chocolatier Deniz Karaca did a chocolate masterclass with the Le Cordon Bleu Melbourne students on Wednesday 19th October in the demonstration theatre. Over 100 students were in attendance and amazed by his culinary brilliance. He truly is a master of his craft.

Deniz Karaca completed his culinary training in Germany where he was awarded the title of a master craftsman in his trade. He has had extensive experience in 5 star restaurants, hotels and on-board cruise ships. Since migrating to Australia in 2008 he has been named Australia’s and Asia Pacific’s #1 Chocolatier and most recently Australia’s Patissier of the Year 2016.
