THE BAKERY TRADE AS SEEN BY THIERRY MARX
Why did you accept to be the patron of the 2016 edition of the Coupe du
Monde de la Boulangerie?
‘I am honoured to have been chosen as the patron of this new edition
because for me, the baker’s trade is a wonderful profession that brings
extraordinary added value to simple products like water and flour. It is the
trade that brings you bread, which is an essential component that
contributes to pleasure in gastronomy.
To be honest, I’ve always been fascinated by everything to do with baking.
This dates back to my childhood when I used to spend hours staring at the
wonderful shop windows of Bernard Ganachaud where I could see the
baking oven, breads, cakes…
One day he invited me to come into the bakery to see him at work instead
of ‘just drooling in front of his shop’. I used to spend all my spare time off
school with a certain Mr Clément, bakery chef, whom I would meet again much later at the famous
Maison Lenôtre.’
Thierry Marx, Chef and patron of the
2016 edition of the ‘Coupe du Monde de la Boulangerie’
