Far from the creamy density and without a biscuit base, it comes in the form of a round soufflé cake, with an almost mousse-like consistency.

Originally from Hong Kong, the forty-year-old studied mathematics and computer science applied to human sciences, then completed with a master’s degree in educational sciences in e-learning.

Helen decided to give her pastry a solidarity and social dimension, by also making it a project for the reintegration of women who are victims of domestic violence.
