A former UK Pastry Champion and World Pastry Cup sugar prize winner, Florian is famous for his flawless macarons and intricate chocolate work. Today, he channels that world-class expertise into his bustling boutiques in Malton and York and also online, sharing his love for authentic, elegant French patisserie. 

Viewers of the TV show Bake Off: The Professionals will also be familiar with Florian’s work as he is the resident pastry consultant for the show. In this role, he is tasked with preparing the flawless, high-level pastry and showpiece creations that are featured on the opening credits and which the competing professional teams are challenged to replicate during the show.

Florian will be showing his award-winning sugar work skills. You will see how he can transform sugar into art as Florian builds a sugar showpiece live and talks about how competition has shaped his mind and fine tuned his skills.

After the festival was over Gilly launched Malton Cookery School in collaboration with The Talbot Hotel then, just before Covid hit, Gilly took the reigns of her very own cookery school and launched The Cook’s Place where she runs a huge and varied range of classes, demonstrations and food events. During this session at Flavours of Yorkshire Gilly will introduce you to Piers Edsall, a local artist blacksmith - together they run a workshop event called Anvil to Appetite where Piers makes the cutlery and Gilly cooks the food. Later Gilly will bring to the stage Liz Kemp who runs Kemps Bookstore in Malton, together they create an event called Cooking The Books where each time a different book is chosen as the inspiration for a meal that you cook then eat.
