Biography

Penkina received her education in Switzerland, where she was introduced to pastry. She continued to develop her passion and knowledge for Patisserie,[1] and learned from pastry chefs around the globe.[2]

"Since I was a child I never stopped creating. I have gone through limitless amount of arts and hobbies until I found my passion in patisserie. My passion for patisserie and specifically entremets began when I saw a work of my sister – who is a pastry chef."[3][4]

Penkina first started to receive recognition for her desserts on social media in 2015. Today, known as the "Glazing Queen",[5] she offers online classes and courses in pastry arts.[6]

In 2020, Penkina released her third book "Theory Guide: Great Glaze doesn't start with Glaze" representing her signature approach behind the shiny glaze and balanced entremets.
