Obsession is a stunning pastry and chocolate art book by world-renowned chef Oriol Balaguer, showcasing over 80 of his most iconic creations — from bonbons and restaurant desserts to viennoiserie, cakes, and plated sweets.
Balaguer, a former disciple of Ferran Adrià and winner of multiple international awards, brings his “obsession” for precision, design, and technical perfection to every page. Known for creations like the Eight Textures of Chocolate — voted Best Dessert at the 2001 Coupe du Monde de la Pâtisserie — and the croissant crowned Best in Spain in 2014, his work reflects a unique blend of artistry and innovation.
Whether you’re a professional pastry chef or a dedicated enthusiast, Obsession offers inspiration and insight through high-end recipes, chocolate techniques, and Balaguer’s signature aesthetic. Includes cakes, petits fours, bonbons, artistic chocolate, and modern bakery creations.
