Garuharu
Chef Yun Eunyoung, also known as GARUHARU garuharu.online, came to pastry as a child and took up the art professionally at the age of 17. During her training at a vocational school she took part in numerous competitions, winning in categories such as chocolate sculptures, sugar sculptures and pastry awards. These experiences led her to discover a deep passion for the aesthetic beauty of dessert and its artistic dimension. At the same time she developed the desire to explore the very essence of pastry: taste, aromas, the variety of ingredients and preparation techniques.
After graduating she worked in high-level pastry shops and hotels, further refining her sensitivity to flavours and learning from the great masters of the field. Thanks to this path, chef Yun Eunyoung began to define a personal style, and in 2012 opened her first boutique, “Garuharu”, in Seoul.
Garuharu’s desserts quickly became famous among enthusiasts for their creative reinterpretation of the classics, the use of unconventional ingredients and techniques and their impeccable presentation. The shop’s fame has grown so much that to taste her creations you often need to queue from the early hours of the morning.
Today chef Yun Eunyoung runs the Garuharu Pastry Academy in Seoul and travels all over the world — from Asia to Europe and the United States — to share and teach her unmistakable Garuharu style.
