ABOUT TRISH.
THE “FRENCHEST” OF IRISH COOKS
Trish Deseine entertains the French way. Having lived and worked in France for the last 20 years she has freely developed her passion for cooking and is now one of France’s most celebrated food writers. Having sold over one million cookbooks, presented two TV series and written countless articles both in English and in French. In 2009 French Vogue included Trish in their ‘40 Women of the Decade’ list.
In 2000, Trish set up a company Au Comptoir des Chefs selling her favourite product – CHOCOLATE. She caught the eye of leading French illustrated book publisher Marabout, who loved her imaginative, rule-breaking style. This venture has led to 18 food books, 16 in French and two for the British publisher Kyle Cathie. Her books have won the prestigious Laduree and Seb prizes and she became the first non-French author to win France's most prestigious cookery prize, the Prix La Mazille at the Perigueux Cookbook Festival.
In the autumn of 2010, Trish will be exclusively launching her ‘Chocolate by Trish’ range into Selfridge’s stores nationwide. This will include a range of chocolate buttons encompassing white and milk chocolate through to a dark 64% and a dark 74% version. Chocolate shards and enticing chocolate dust complete the edible range whilst Trish’s Chocolate Kit provides the tools, moulds and advice for creations at home.
Trish lives in Paris with her four children.
