Candy

Candy is a distillate of sweet cuisine created in the restaurants of elBarri over a whole decade (2011-2021). The last phase of its production coincided with the closure of elBarri: that unique gastronomic amusement park of which Tickets, Bodega 1900, Hoja Santa, Pakta and Enigma were part. For Albert Adrià and David Gil -alma mater and pastry chef at elBarri, respectively-, this book represents a stop in the middle of their careers, a pause that has brought with it an invaluable asset: the opportunity to look back, to evaluate the successes achieved and rethink the next goals. We wanted Candy to express herself in two different ways: through a book with the photos of the desserts, accompanied by a brief explanation of her concept so that the images speak for themselves; and through a cookbook, in which the elaboration of each dish is explained in detail.
