In Fruit: The Art of Pastry , Cédric Grolet, Executive Pastry Chef at Paris’s legendary Le Meurice and World’s Best Pastry Chef (2018), invites readers into the revolutionary approach that made his desserts an international sensation. With a foreword by Alain Ducasse, one of the most influential chefs of our time, this lushly produced book stands as both a master class and a manifesto for modern pastry. Known for his breathtaking trompe‑l'œil creations―desserts that look exactly like real fruit―Grolet strips pastry down to its essence, then rebuilds it with precision, restraint, and respect for flavor. Lemons look freshly picked. Peaches appear dusted with fuzz. Inside, each dessert reveals layered textures and pure, concentrated taste. Organized into seven fruit families―ranging from citrus and stone fruit to berries, exotic fruit, and nuts― Fruit presents 130 meticulously developed recipes that balance artistic vision with rigorous technique. Grolet walks readers through his creative process, from initial sketch to finished dessert, revealing how design, structure, and flavor work together at the highest level. Lavishly photographed and technically exacting, Fruit: The Art of Pastry is ideal for professional pastry chefs, culinary students, and ambitious home bakers who want more than recipes―they want to understand how great pastry is conceived. Endorsed by Alain Ducasse and admired worldwide, this is a landmark book in contemporary French pastry and an essential reference for anyone serious about dessert. Inside Fruit: The Art of Pastry , you’ll find: 130 refined recipes featuring 45 fruits, organized by ingredient family Seven dedicated chapters, including citrus, stone fruit, berries, exotic fruit, wild fruit, seeded fruit, and nuts Detailed techniques for molding, glazing, sculpting, and achieving hyper‑realistic finishes Step‑by‑step insight into Grolet’s creative process, from drawing to final presentation Striking photography throughout, showcasing desserts as edible works of art A foreword by Alain Ducasse, underscoring the book’s place in modern French culinary tradition Review: Gorgeous and inspiring book — my friend was overjoyed to receive it as a gift! - I bought this book as a birthday gift for my friend, and she was absolutely thrilled! The photography is stunning, and the recipes are inspiring. It’s a beautiful book for anyone who loves pastry or fruit-based desserts. Review: Fantastic book ONLY IF... - This book is wonderful, but if you actually want to use it and make everything, I highly recommend taking Cedric Grolet's class on pastryclass.com. It is expensive, but it is worth it if you really want to do these things. Taking that online class will fill in all of the holes that this book has. If you just want a coffee table book, it's beautiful, but if you want to make the desserts, taking his class might be the only way for you to successfully do that. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #121,820 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #59 in Fruit Cooking #90 in Pastry Baking (Books) #115 in French Cooking, Food & Wine | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 562 Reviews | ## Images ![Fruit: The Art of Pastry - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81IXB0-yc4L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gorgeous and inspiring book — my friend was overjoyed to receive it as a gift! *by M***V on June 12, 2025* I bought this book as a birthday gift for my friend, and she was absolutely thrilled!

After reading the reviews I wasn't sure whether i should buy it, but I did anyways, and I don't regret that I did! Everything is described nicely, pictures are beautiful, of course to cook everything the way it should be, you may need a couple of days to prepare the ingredients and equipment, but I'm sure it'll be worth it! I am very happy that he describes how to do the glazes (and has recipes for them), though I am not sure I completely understand, but I'll be working on it :) As soon as I cook smth, i will share my result here. I recommend this book very much, though not every recipe could be easily done at home.. ## Frequently Bought Together - Fruit - Opera Patisserie: Essential Recipes for French Pastry - Flowers: A French Patisserie Cookbook --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/89003771-fruit-the-art-of-pastry](https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/89003771-fruit-the-art-of-pastry) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cyprus* *Store origin: CY* *Last updated: 2026-07-06*
