Brand Chef and tutor of the International Pastry Academy KICA

Oleksandr Trofimenkov

"Helping my students, as their mentor and advisor, to flourish in their projects fills me with joy."

From the very beginning, the chef sets the standards for his students' creations. This is done so as to ensure their products are of the highest quality and are ready to decorate the showcases of the most demanding pastry shops.

Beginning his pastry journey in Kyiv, Oleksandr started his career at the city's acclaimed patisserie, Honey. He subsequently trained at The National School of Pastry (ENSP), one of the most esteemed pastry schools in France, after which he started working as a pastry instructor, holding private master classes and teaching at the renowned school of Hector Jimenez-Bravo.

Aleksandr then went on to Dubai to conduct his biggest project yet - launching and managing the large-scale production of luxury pastries for a grand patisserie. Such a background has meant that, since 2017, he has been a member of the jury for the celebrated Ukrainian National Restaurant Award, Salt.

With many years of experience in working with, managing and teaching the art of fine pastry, Oleksandr is delighted to now be able to share his professional knowledge with learners from all over the world. Today, he is a pastry tutor at KICA, teaching students from more than 140 countries.

Drawing on his wealth of experience and expertise, Oleksandr tutors in the mastery of world-class patisserie. No matter whether he is explaining the most basic culinary theories or the fanciest pastry concepts, Oleksandr teaches his courses using simple language, ensuring that his mentees come away with a thorough understanding of the practices they set out to learn. His detailed, yet easy-to-follow, explanations of his recipes allow his students to get the most out of their lessons.

With Oleksandr as your mentor, you can trust that you are being taught by the best.
