Nathalie Robert and Didier Mathray

Pain de Sucre is a twoperson, catering-based operation. This means that in the creations made by this pâtissier couple, there are classical bases, but less sugar and a re-working of the appearance and recipes for an original play of textures. The NATHALIE ROBERT & DIDIER MATHRAY hallmark is a refined, rather Zen presentation, using squares where every piece of ornamentation is justified. Before, Nathalie and Robert worked for Pierre Gagnaire. They met under his direction and then created Pain de Sucre.
