Leonardo Di Carlo

Pastry Chef

Leonardo Di Carlo was still very young when he first started to work in his parents’ shop and became passionate for pastry. He won many prestigious awards, including third place in the Coupe du Monde in Lyon, France in 2001, the top of the podium in the European Cup in 2002, and a gold medal at the World Pastry UIPGC Championship in Rimini, Italy in 2004. Without a doubt, he represents one of the finest examples of Italian artistic ability mixed with a strong professional ambition. Since 2014, he is an international Ambassador for Callebaut.
