chocolate & decorating

recommends a chocolate glaze made with Guittard 100%
Minuit, along with other ingredients (see formula of the month
on page 50 of this issue).
"The glaze on this verrine is pretty nice," he says. "There's a
shine to it, and a lot of dark chocolate."
A depth of pastry experience
Growing up in Issaquah, Washington, Wressell credits much of
his culinary career to his grandmother. When he was seven, the
duo would watch The Galloping Gourmet and were entranced
by the flipping, stirring, and sautéing, Wressell decided to become a chef.
As a young adult, he enrolled in the Washington State Chef Association Culinary program and continued to garner pastry expertise
through positions at the Westin Hotel in Seattle, Watergate Pastry
in Washington D.C. where he worked with Jean-Louis Palladin
and the Breakers Hotel Sky Room in Long Beach, California. He
worked at the Four Seasons in Philadelphia in 1986 and remembers this as a formative time working with executive chef JeanMarie Lacroix "who was brilliant with food and people."
In 1987, Wressell was named executive pastry chef at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills. It was here that he wooed the hotel's
celebrity clientele with the sweet creations of his hands and humor. While at the Four Seasons, Wressell made the City of Beverly
Hills' 75th Anniversary cake, a gâteau enjoyed by 10,000 people.

A STORIED HISTORY IN CHOCOLATE
Guittard Chocolate Company is a 148-year-old fifth
generation family owned and operated chocolate
company in the San Francisco Bay Area. It was
founded during the Gold Rush by Etienne Guittard, a Frenchman from Tournus, France, who
came to California to look for gold. He brought
chocolate made by his family's chocolate factory in
France and soon discovered that newly rich miners
would pay a premium for the treat. He went back
to France to master the craft and came back in
1868 to establish Guittard Chocolate Company in
San Francisco. 
 
Today, under the leadership of fourth generation chocolate maker and chief executive officer
Gary Guittard, the company continues to thrive,
responsibly source cacao and ingredients to make
high quality chocolate products for food manufacturers, chefs, confectioners, ice cream makers
and home bakers. Gary's daughter Amy (marketing) and nephew Clark (international sales)
represent the fifth generation of the family to join
the business.
