would like you to imagine a cake just
cake okay so it can be your favorite
cake made by you or by your mom or some
cake from the nearest pastry shop just
ordinary favorite cake and of course I
have my ideas about how perfect cake
looks like and you have your ideas so
let’s compare our years my cake can look
like this or and it has some feelings
inside or like this or like this and
that’s why I’m here today and I would
like to talk about my concept and about
my creations so people have been
consuming sweet for ages and if you try
to find some information about first
sweets for example ice cream was
invented more than 4,000 years ago and
people just mixed ice with fruits and
with fruit and berries and ate it like
ice cream but for many years in the past
sugar was true luxury item and sweet
only rich people could buy sweet things
but in 19th century everything changed
and sugar became accessible almost to
everyone because sugar production
increased and at the same time in Europe
tradition to finish meal with some sweet
dessert was born and this tradition
still exists nowadays so me my family
and I where we are not an exception and
we also usually eat some sweets and
cakes after meal and of course there are
some people who don’t want to eat any
sweets but I’m not among them
I really want to eat cakes and
croissants ice cream I like it and this
is one of the reason why I became pastry
chef because I I wanted to cook it and I
wanted to eat it so when I was 15 I
decided to be an architect I decided I
want to be an architect of course I had
no idea that objects of my design would
be cake
and I graduated from university of
architecture and design and I worked as
an interior designer for a few years but
then something happened and I started
baking and cooking of course I cook for
me and for my family and for me it was
very important when dish and when meal
was beautifully presented and
beautifully soft and what can be more
beautiful than a cake so I don’t know
for me it’s a cake
so I started baking and in general I saw
first for the first time in my life I
saw mousse Kleist cake maybe six years
ago and I was totally shocked and for me
it was like miracle oh my god it was so
shiny so bright so unusual for me and it
was something very new and modern cake
for me and for people it’s not you know
it’s not just a sponge cake with cream
and sugar and berries it’s something
bigger and it’s a real art and it’s a
real science and modern pastry chef they
it’s not just ordinary people who make
the same things day by day they compete
with each other they need to make some
creative things they need to make pieces
of art and I would like to show you a
modern pastry world from that side to
show that it can be real art so I
started baking and of course I had my
social networks and I wanted to share my
passion my hobby with my followers with
my friends and I started posting
pictures on my Instagram and then I
noted that some creative objects usually
attracted much more attention and got
more likes for example and and I started
to think about my own molds own designs
but unfortunately it was almost
impossible to make some special objects
using just ordinary amounts from mass
production because everybody had the
same mold so I could make only the same
things so I started to think about my
own molds and I started to think about
3d print
and to be honest at that time I knew
nothing about 3d printing okay so there
is some 3d printer but now I’m work with
it a lot and for me it’s just ordinary
to like a standard mixer on my kitchen
so I work with it almost every day and
3d printing was invented maybe 30 or 40
years ago and with 3d printer we can
print very tiny small objects like for
jewelry or big objects like house and
it’s possible can you mention big
printed house for four thousand square
meters and for four hundred square
meters and it’s possible however I work
with much modest objects just my molds
and I work with plastic so my first mold
I printed a couple years ago and it was
the cake from this mold and I wanted to
make some special cake and this cake is
very it has very aggressive design with
sharp edges and strict lines and with
provocative colors and for me it was
important to make something different to
surprise people so you know so we made
this cake and then this experiment was
successful and I realized that okay now
I can do anything I want almost
everything yes I would like to talk
about 3d printing process so what you
have to do it’s small lesson you need to
make 3d model you can use any software
for example I work with 3ds max
grasshopper archicad autocad
Houdini indifference up there then you
have to print this model and you have
printed mode
so then you have printed malt and you
have to pour silicon on the top and wait
a few hours and you will have just some
silicon mould and inside you have to put
some ingredients some recipe and at the
end also my it’s very important part for
me to create very good recipe because
recipe is very important and we need to
have very good textures inside and very
good flavours inside otherwise people
won’t buy it second time and you see
there were different layers and it was a
cake so so when you have your recipe you
put inside some ingredients and you need
to freeze it and after you just need to
finish it with glazing or spraying and
you have your cake and it’s not it’s not
the end and my last step is making
photos and videos and it’s a big
separate part for me and usually I try
to make very good visual content because
it’s very important for me people just a
few people can eat my cakes I don’t have
any mass production I don’t have any
shop now but everybody can see my cakes
my creation so I want to share a good
pictures and I want to surprise people
and this is my next step and my next
goal I want to surprise and inspire
people because when you see my cake if
you see it for the first time you can’t
understand what is it whether it is I
don’t know some piece of furniture some
tray or ways or something plastic toy
but if you cut it you have inside a lot
of different layers they can be crunchy
or a fluffy gentle with chocolate with
different fruits it’s real cake and I
want to inspire people and some people
write me like you are my inspiration and
I started to bake I want to be a pastry
chef I changed my career and
I’m very happy about it because I want
to share my passion also and once once
Malevich worked with his students on
some manufacturing and they were doing
they were making some design for teapot
and when director of this manufacturing
he came and saw this teapot and he said
it’s a good idea but it’s not very
convenient this teapot and sometimes my
cake it’s not just the cake its idea its
idea of a cake and Malevich answer him
it’s not a teapot
it’s an idea of a teapot so I try to
just make some ideas and to share them
and for example here a lot of people
think that it’s a glass but it’s a sugar
this this is sugar box and my next step
I wanted to explain my explain my
projects a little bit so it’s a cherry
cake we used 3dmax
to make this mold and we just made a 3d
model cherry and we put inside inside
invisible box a lot of cherries and then
we hide this box and at the end we had
just a lot of cherries talked together
and you see this process just a lot of
cherries then of course I finished it
with my hand and also I can show this
I can show this mod so it was the mall
and then we made silicon malls and of
course we made a cake and after you
cover it with grace it looks like real
cherries just tucked together and of
course if you cut it you have different
layers inside and this is cherry cake of
course with cherry taste and with dark
chocolate and cherry and by the way this
video got more than 9 million views and
for me it was very big surprise yeah
so my next cake I call it cluster cake
and using Voronoi diagram with lead
split at this shape and we try to make
stone effect so like we have a lot of
stones and then we just broke off some
of them and we had this stone cake mold
and it looks very nice and this is work
of – alien artist and he works his name
is Jose markoulis and he works with 3d
sculptures and compositions and he works
usually with plastic metal and acrylic
sheets but he sent me his drawings and I
made this but I made it of chocolate so
it was chocolate
they were just chocolate sheets and of
course we made a video every time we try
to make photos and videos so here we’re
using also milling machine and this is
this was yogurt cake by the way with
berry
we use milling used milling machine to
cut this chocolate sheets I just
prepared a lot of sheets with colorful
chocolate and we made it in my city in
some laboratory and this guy created
also this milling machine by himself so
here we tried to show how we can
collaborate how different people from
different professions can make some some
interesting project together we were
three people artist engineer and pastry
chef and we create we created such
collection we called it kinetic tarts
and totally we made four different art
yes so here it’s a picture of Thera
fluid ferrofluid it’s some liquid that
can be strongly magnetized in presence
of magnetic fields and it was big
inspiration for me and I dreamed about
this shape and finally I made it like a
cake we made it just two months ago
especially the shape who made for crab I
made for collaboration with Spanish
pastry chef his name is Jordi borders
and he is world champion and here my
second main goal I want to I want to
explain you that modern cake cakes they
can be healthy so here for example it’s
a totally vegan cake and there is no
cream no butter no flour and no eggs but
it’s still mousse cake with every
textures inside instead of this we have
inside mango lychee passionfruit
strawberry and even cactus flower and
this cake was very tasty and it was
quite complex to make to create this
recipe without this ingredients even
without gelatine our cream it’s not easy
and you have to be smart you have to
know a lot about chemical processes
physical processes and to create
recipe and I would like to tell that
modern cakes it’s not just sugar with
berries with butter mixed together they
can be healthy we can keep all vitamins
inside we can have strong flavor without
any special attention and it’s also very
important for me to share that we can
make very good and tasty cakes without
low in sugar and low in fat so it was
the cake and so my main message if we if
we eat this cake just a few years during
during year maybe for some celebration
for a birthday for I don’t know for some
holiday try to find your perfect tasty
beautiful cake like I did okay thank you [Applause]
