Who is Fran Segura?
Designer of éclairs and desserts that bring out the freshness and quality of well-made pastry
Fran Segura captivates the audience with innovative techniques and creative designs. His style is based on natural pastry, using seasonal products and respecting the ingredients, with his éclairs being a highlight. Experiencing the flavors and new creations of his éclairs is truly a gastronomic experience, considered an edible luxury that pairs perfectly with a good specialty coffee.
He was formerly known as “the chocolate chef.” It was this ingredient that brought him closer to the world of pastry-making. While in Alicante (Spain), he discovered his vocation in the versatility of chocolate. A world opened up to him that went beyond chocolate bars; he could use chocolate for everything, from fillings to original sculptures.
Since the beginning of his career in 2000, he has already received several awards, including the silver medal at the European Pastry Championship and the Pastry World Cup.
For him, the success of a creation is when the diner wants to have another dish or dessert, and this is achieved by being consistent. He explains that one of the worst mistakes in pastry is over-saturating desserts with sugar and fat, which ends up overshadowing the main product.
