Matteo Felici
Matteo Felici is an Italian pastry chef from Milan with a background in architecture and experience as a photographer, which influences his precise and aesthetic style.
He discovered pastry as a self-taught professional and drew inspiration from the French school to develop his own creative identity.
He gained recognition after his participation in Bake Off Italia 2020, standing out for his elegance and creativity, and today he is committed to modern and innovative pastry, including plant-based creations.
In our mission to innovate and offer cleaner alternatives without sacrificing flavor, we have collaborated with the talented Italian pastry chef Matteo Felicci, who has joined the challenge of using our product Proglaçage as a key piece to create a 100% vegan fig and walnut entremet. In a professional pastry shop that increasingly demands more ethical and plant-based products, this recipe represents a technical and sensory leap.
The vegan fig and walnut entremet combines several layers of technique: a walnut praline with a crunchy texture and depth of flavor; a walnut cookie that provides structure and contrast; a fig jam that provides juiciness and a fruity note; a walnut mousse that enhances the smoothness; and finally a fig glaze made with Proglaçage, our new plant-based solution for glazes.
Thanks to Proglaçage, the use of animal gelatin and pectins has been completely avoided, maintaining a very shiny, stable glaze with an authentic fruit flavor.
The fact that this dessert is 100% veggie not only responds to food trends, but also demands a high technical level: texture, flavor, stability, presentation. Matteo Felicci demonstrates once again how innovation and technical ingredients can go hand in hand to create works that satisfy both the most demanding chef and the conscious consumer.
Caramel has something universal about it. Its aroma alone is enough to awaken a shared memory: sugar slowly turning golden, that precise point between sweet and toasted, the slightly bitter note that makes it so addictive. It is one of the most recognisable flavours in pastry and, for that very reason, one of the most […]
Some desserts tell their story before you even taste them. Cacao Bean is exactly that: a mimetic reproduction of a cocoa bean—the primordial form of chocolate, the origin point of everything—that, when opened, reveals four chocolate preparations in dialogue. A completely vegan dessert, technically precise, that transforms the act of biting into a narrative about […]
There are desserts built from flavor and desserts built from memory. This Chocolate, Orange and Orange Blossom Bar belongs to the second category: a winter dessert of classic flavors—dark chocolate, ginger, orange and orange blossom—that evokes those combinations European pastry has perfected over generations, but reinterpreted with a contemporary technical construction of five perfectly assembled […]
