Blandine Wartel
Born and raised near Paris and shaped by years living between the Jura and the Alps 🇫🇷, Blandine grew up in a culture where good bread, homemade pastries, and sharing food are part of everyday life. She has been baking and making pastries since childhood, learning through family traditions, hands-on experience, and a love for simple, quality ingredients.Through years of traveling across France’s remote villages, she developed a deep appreciation for small local bakeries, regional recipes, and the artisans who preserve true French savoir-faire. Her goal is to bring a piece of that France — and those memories — to California, sharing authentic French baking classes and pastries, taught by a French baker.
