Jack CHUA - makes a truly outstanding dessert Gifted with a pair of magic hands, Jack CHUA has created a number of delicacies, all in the form of cakes and pastries.

Jack said, “It just happened by chance to be a pastry chef! My original plan was to follow a career in catering or hotel management. The students in the institute could choose to major in Culinary Arts or Baking and Pastry Arts. I decided to do the latter simply because I could not stand the smell of raw meat.”

Jack CHUA - makes a truly outstanding dessert “Apart from being delicious, it must have a character of its own. The basic ingredients for the classic tiramisu, for example, don't vary much; they are always coffee and mascarpone cheese. Yet we can add some ice cream to give it a special charm. The idea of making the filo croissant and the method of preparation as described in this section are all adapted from the French croissants.” said Jack.
