Frank Haasnoot Netherlands

Haasnoot, Frank

Frank Haasnoot crowned World Chocolate Masters 2011 also won the award for the best showpiece and dessert. His showpiece named "Warrior", entirely sculpted out of chocolate shows an Aztec warrior in the quest of cacao in the jungle. This breathtaking showpiece entirely created during the competition, is perfectly balanced, a great achievement that only the best chocolatiers can achieve. His winning dessert named, "Xococo", contained the most delicated flavours with a remarkable blend and taste of long lived Aztec ingredients; coconut, passionate fruit, manago and of course chocolate!
