A Baker’s Journey: École Ducasse and the Sweetest Chapter Yet

For those who have enjoyed the treats from 7Marvels, nestled within the Poppy Factory, you know that baking isn’t just a profession for me; it’s a passion, a creative outlet, and a way to share joy. I pour my heart and soul into every cake, cupcake, and pastry that emerges from my oven. That passion, however, has always been fueled by a desire to learn and grow, to push my creative boundaries and strive for excellence. And that’s why I’m writing to you today with some incredibly exciting news.

I’ve been accepted to École Ducasse, and I’m absolutely ecstatic! This world-renowned culinary institution is known for its rigorous training and unparalleled reputation, and being accepted into their prestigious pastry program for professional bakers is a dream fulfilled.

This accomplishment is not just a personal victory; it’s a testament to the incredible support I’ve received from all of you, my loyal customers. Every cake purchased, every kind word shared, every positive review – it all contributed to this moment. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for believing in my vision and inspiring me to pursue my goals.

This means a temporary closure for 7Marvels at the Poppy Factory. I’ll be taking a break from daily baking to immerse myself in the world-class instruction and hands-on experience at École Ducasse. I anticipate being away until end of October, and I will deeply miss the daily interactions with my wonderful customers.

But this isn’t a goodbye; it’s “à bientôt!” This time away is an investment in the future of 7Marvels, an investment in my growth as a pastry chef, and in the quality of the treats I will create when I return. Consider it a sweet intermission—a period of refinement that will allow me to return with even more creative and delectable offerings.

I’ll keep you updated on my progress at École Ducasse, sharing insights, experiences, and maybe even sneak peeks of my creations, and I can’t wait to see you all again soon! Until then, stay sweet!
