The award-winning Swedish pâtissier Seb Pettersson spoils the guests of Hideaway Beach Resort & Spa from October 27 to November 10, 2019 with its sweet temptations. Together with the resort’s executive chef, Sebastien Pinson, he will create exceptional taste sensations.
Despite his young age, Chef Sebastian Pettersson already has an impressive cv: he has worked at Michelin-starred restaurants Oaxen Krog, Operakällaren and Ekstedt in Stockholm. His talent has been rewarded twice: he won Olympic gold with the Junior Culinary National Team in 2016 and Olympic gold with the Swedish Culinary National Team in 2018. Growing up in a creative family has influenced its work: his creations are incredible works of art.
With his imaginative and artistically designed creations, Seb Pettersson surprised the jury of the “Culinary World Cup 2018” in Luxembourg with new interesting flavours and designs in 2018: for example he uniquely combined milk chocolate with extraordinary herbs and almonds into a work of art for the eye and the palate his sweet temptation of honey, chocolate and roasted sesame also helped bring the Swedish national cooking team home the gold medal.
Already in 2016, he started with his desserts for the Swedish Junior Culinary Team at the IKA Culinary Olympics in Erfurt, landing among other things with an extraordinary dessert of cherries, chocolate and pistachios on the winners’ podium and was awarded the gold medal.
The Swede grew up in a creative family that has always had a passion for many types of art, so the perfected design and artistic design of his delicacies was already in his genes.
Pettersson travels around the world as a pastry chef and delights people with his desserts. On Instagram and YouTube, thousands of fans can admire his masterpieces every day, which are less reminiscent of food and more of sumptuous works of art.
Guests visiting the resort during this period will be able to sample Sebastian’s delights in two special events hosted by the Chef himself: A dessert creations buffet at Matheefaru Restaurant on Tuesday, 29th October, and a Gala Dinner at Sunset Pool Cafe on Thursday, 7th November where Chef Sebastian Pettersson will team up with Hideaway’s Executive Chef Sebastien Pinson, to combine their talents and create a unique culinary experience.
During his stay at Hideaway, Chef Sebastian Pettersson will also be training the kitchen staff in his art and share his tips for exquisite delicacies. If you are visiting the resort at a later date, the pastry Chef’s signature desserts will still be available in the resort’s restaurants.
