Christophe Adam

In 2012 Christophe Adam opened L’Éclair de Génie, a new and original pastry concept in the Marais district of Paris, where the star product is the éclair in numerous and original flavors. This was the beginning of a business that in a short time has conquered the world. Only six years later, in 2017, L’Éclair de Génie already has twenty shops and a dozen corners in Japan, Moscow, Milan, among other places.

Apart from leading this empire, the prolific French chef still has time to write pastry books, participate in TV Shows, open a restaurant called Dépôt Légal, and play golf.
