Madrid Fusión Alimentos de España has announced the winner of the seventh edition of the Emerging Pastry Chef Award. While age is often considered a virtue, this time the award has gone to a 24-year-old. Luis Fernández, a young pastry chef from Ponferrada, has been named Spain's best emerging pastry chef. He bakes his delights, which everyone will want to try from now on, at the Hotel Boutique Eunice in Salamanca.

Among the six finalists, this young man from Ponferrada has spent four years honing his skills to demonstrate, as he himself expressed upon receiving the award, what he is capable of creating with his hands. His journey began at Le Cordon Bleu in Madrid, where he earned a medal in haute cuisine, and continued with his first internship at the Michelin-starred restaurant Ambivium. From there, he rose to stardom. In just four years, during which he also worked at Casa Cacao, the winner of the Best Restaurant Award at this edition of Madrid Fusión Alimentos de España, he developed his great passion for sweets.

A taste that has brought him to the very heart of Salamanca, in a classic Castilian-style mansion. Ice cream, chocolates, and plated desserts are the specialties of this pastry chef who initially set out to become an engineer. His work has put him ahead of Beatrice Casella, Carla Ordás, Mar Ibáñez, Clara Campoamor, and Claudia Merchán, and today he expressed his gratitude to the hotel for "betting on such a young guy to be part of such an ambitious project."
