Files by Ramon Morató is a landmark hardcover pastry book that goes far beyond recipes, offering an in-depth exploration of modern pâtisserie through science, creativity and innovation. Winner of the 2022 Award for Design, this beautifully produced bilingual English-Spanish edition presents over 500 pages of research, techniques and practical applications from one of the world's leading chocolate and pastry experts.
Rather than following a traditional cookbook format, Files is organised into 15 individual projects, each exploring a different aspect of contemporary pastry. Topics range from the science of ganache and the use of vegetables in desserts to healthy pâtisserie, vegan creations, flavour pairing, chocolate and wine, nuts, Japanese cotton cake and changing food trends. Alongside these in-depth studies are almost 100 creative recipes, including bonbons, entremets, macarons, plated desserts, ice cream, choux pastries, tarts, cheesecakes and chocolate bars.
Every chapter blends technical knowledge with practical solutions, helping readers understand not only how recipes work, but why they work.
