About this Event
Born in Arras in Hauts de France in 1987, Brian Boclet, son of a baker, grew up in the accommodation above the family bakery in Roubaix. The smells of pastries and hot breads awaken his appetite and curiosity. He wanders among the pastry bakers who keep him busy with small tasks. The bakery is for him a space of sensory and taste discovery. He also likes to stop by the store where he often helps his mother with sales. At the time of his orientation he must make a choice: bakery or sale. He opts for sales and will go as far as obtaining his BTS MUC. In the process, he enriched himself with experiences abroad, notably Cambridge, London and Singapore.
Back in France, he decided to join his parents' business in order to pursue the profession of baker. Alternately, he passed CAP, BP and BM at INBP where his passion was revealed and then spent 2 years in Paris to acquire new techniques from recognized bakers. In the South-West, he then took over a business with which he achieved success in local competitions (traditional French baguette, butter croissant, etc.). After 6 years of management he left for Switzerland, he joined the team of Thomas Marie MOF baker at the Lausanne hospitality school as a master teacher of practical arts. Thomas Marie becomes his mentor and friend during the preparation of the Meilleurs Ouvriers de France baker competition where Brian Boclet will be a finalist. Tenacious and epicurean, he never ceases to rise professionally through his creativity in this profession that he loves so much. Through hard work, it is in July 2023 that Thomas Marie gives Brian the keys to the prestigious EHL bakery founded 10 years earlier with Jean-Marie Lanio. On the road to a new challenge, Brian becomes the new chef EHL bakery at the head of a team that has seen him grow.
