Sheyla Alvarado

I’m Sheyla Alvarado, a passionate dessert chef with over a decade of experience bringing sweet visions to life in some of the world’s finest kitchens. I am also expert on other dishes, too . My journey has taken me through renowned five-star hotel chains such as Le Méridien, Radisson, and other luxury establishments, where I’ve had the privilege of creating desserts that not only satisfy cravings but tell a story on the plate. From the very beginning, I was drawn to the precision, artistry, and emotion that desserts can evoke. After completing my formal culinary training, I immersed myself in the fast-paced world of fine dining, mastering classic pastry techniques while exploring innovative flavor pairings and modern presentation styles. I believe that a dessert should be more than just the final course—it should be the grand finale, leaving a lasting impression. Whether it’s a delicate French mille-feuille, a rich chocolate soufflé, or a bold fusion creation inspired by global flavors, I pour my heart into every dish I make.
