Executive Pastry Chef Mitzi Reyes' culinary journey is deeply rooted in her family's rich history. Growing up in Mexico, where her grandfather was a chef, Mitzi was inspired by his artistry before immigrating to the United States at the age of 14. A graduate of the prestigious Le Cordon Bleu, Mitzi brings a playful, imaginative approach to her desserts, blending unexpected elements and storytelling into every creation. Her impressive career includes stints in renowned kitchens, including The Bazaar by José Andrés at the SLS Beverly Hills Hotel, Dominique Ansel's pastry empire, and Somni, a two Michelin-starred restaurant under Aitor Zabala. Most recently, Mitzi served as Executive Pastry Chef at the West Hollywood EDITION, before collaborating with Curtis Stone on desserts for the Michelin-starred Gwen Butcher Shop & Restaurant, Maude, and The Pie Room by Curtis Stone. Mitzi will also be showcasing her skills on Harry Potter Wizards of Baking this fall on the Food Network.
