Mario Ragona

Mario Ragona pursued his dream of becoming a pastry chef with determination: years of hard work that ultimately paid off, elevating him to the pinnacle of international pastry and leading him to the role of Coordinator for the Basic Professional Pastry Course at Scuola Tessieri. Mario's impressive achievements include numerous international accolades, such as the gold medal at the World Pastry Cup in Luxembourg in 2010 and the title of Italian Pastry Champion at the Internationals of Italy in 2012. His main specialties are individual portions, breakfast pastries, and sugar and chocolate work. "I have always believed that pastry is not just a profession; working in a lab is not a fashion show amidst ingredients or colleagues. Pastry is love, passion, and dedication. If you look at pastry and see only a white jacket without understanding its value, then you have understood everything—everything you need to change your field of choice!"
