Welcome back for another season of the Chicago Restaurant Pastry Competition. The series showcases four pastry chefs, filmed on location at The Chicago School of Mold Making. In this season, the three time Emmy award-winning series takes on new challenges with an emphasis on strong technique and innovative creativity. The competing chefs have been chosen by “blind” audition; submitting photos and recipes. They are judged by the creativity and concept alone, the chefs’ names redacted until the finalists are selected.

This year joining us, we have Pastry Chefs Tyler Atwell of Boulud Sud, in New York, NY; Kei Hasegawa of Sashi in Manhattan Beach, CA; Deden Putra of Clement at Peninsula Hotel New York, NY; Evan Sheridan of The Umstead Hotel & Spa in Cary, North Carolina. Please enjoy the latest episodes of The Chicago Restaurant Pastry Competition Season 4: Meet the Freaks.
