Julien Chamalo

Flan expert | Author of Mes flans pâtissiers I & II
Julien Chamalo
Julien Chamalo, known as Ju Chamalo, is one of the leading experts in flan.

A passionate self-taught pastry chef, Julien Chamalo has become a true specialist in his field. Curious and deeply dedicated, he explores every layer of the pastry world. His passion has led him to master a wide range of techniques, from fillings and praline to lamination and beyond.

After tasting nearly every flan in Paris, he refined his palate and realized that, beyond the classic vanilla flans, there was little variety. He made it his mission to reinvent the genre and breathe new life into this iconic French dessert.

Through perseverance and creativity, he developed his own original recipes, each more inventive than the last, eventually building a strong identity and an impressive reputation.

His success is reflected in two books entirely dedicated to flans, each featuring over 50 recipes. In them, he explores flan in all its forms, from timeless classics to daring new creations, blending local and international flavors and reinterpreting iconic desserts such as baklava, cookie, tiramisu, lemon tart, or Mont Blanc… all in flan form.

Today, with his solid expertise, Julien leads pastry workshops across France and collaborates with several renowned pastry shops.
He now joins VoilaChef to share three of his most iconic creations:
a comforting classic vanilla flan,
a chocolate-tonka marbled flan wrapped in a leopard-print crust,
and a highly technical and spectacular crème brûlée-style striped flan.
