Head Baker l World Champion Viennese Pastry

Déborah Libs is a Head Baker and Pastry Chef from Alsace, and World Champion Viennese Pastry Chef.

Passionate about her native region heritage, Déborah has been baking Alsatian specialities with her family ever since she was a child. Choosing a career as a baker was an obvious choice.
After completing her vocational studies and earning a CAP in baking, then a CAP in pastry-making, the chef completed her training with a master's certificate. After entering several competitions, Déborah entered the Bakery Masters in 2018 and was crowned World Viennese Pastry Champion.

Déborah then seized the opportunity to put her passion into practice and joined a French bakery in Chicago for 4 years, working with Pierre Zimmerman, twice sacred World Bakery Champion. She passed on her love for her region through traditional products that come from the other side of the Atlantic.
At the same time, the Chef hosted numerous demonstrations around the world, as she has always been keen to pass on her expertise.

Now that she is back in France, Déborah's ambition is to open her own bakery which would stay true to what she values: traditional products from her region, classic bakery products and original products from her creations that are both technical and gourmet.

For VoilaChef, Déborah invites you to join her and make 3 of her favorite products: a savory Alsatian Kugelhopf, a delicious two-tone raspberry and chocolate puff pastry brioche, and a classic or coconut version of the Swiss stripe roll.

I'm a CAP pastry chef and I have all the basics, but with voila chef's courses, I really feel like I'm learning new things, more advanced and perfected techniques, and I've made considerable progress. What's more, the courses are extremely well explained, the videos are clear and easy to follow, and all the recipes I've tried have been 100% successful, and above all, they're also excellent in terms of taste.
