ABOUT FUYUKO’S KITCHEN:

I am Fuyuko, and I am a professional pâtissière.

While I was born in New York, I was raised all over the world, including cities like Los Angeles, Tokyo, and Mexico City.

After I graduated from Pasadena City College, I traveled to Europe to study the art of French Patisserie. I earned my certificate as a professional pâtissière after years of training at CERIA (a culinary institute in Brussels). My ambition led me to renowned pastry shops and restaurants in Brussels and Paris, where I worked with top ranking MOF Chefs and legendary pâtissier, Gastron Lenôtre where I experienced extraordinary culinary skills and craftmanship.

After my work there, I moved to Tokyo in the '80s and began to build my career as a pastry chef. Around this time, it was rare to see women in the culinary industry, but I was determined to go against that stereotype. In 1995, I became the owner of a pastry shop and school in Shibuya, called La Chouette.

As the years passed, my journey continued. I moved back to the U.S. in 2014, where I worked in local bakeries and restaurants in NYC. The awe-inspiring chefs I worked with introduced me to the concept of using farm-to-table ingredients.

During the pandemic, I moved to Los Angeles, where I started a cottage food business, straight from my home kitchen. Following the farm-to-table path I learned directly from farmers, California's abundance of fresh fruits and heirloom grains allows me to make my pastries to be as enjoyable as possible. My pursuit of making fine pastries continues, and I hope you will come to taste the flavors of the seasons through my galettes and much more.

FUYUKO’S KITCHEN ON
LA TIMES

Fuyuko’s Apple Galette story and recipe were featured in LA Times on Sunday 11/20/2022! Read the article online now:
“Thanksgiving, the L.A. way - 6 home cooks share their traditions”

What People Are Saying

“She also pops up at the Hollywood Farmers’ Market with pastries both sweet and savory, which is where you’ll find her focaccine (a round, individually-sized focaccia), made with a mix of AP and Tehachapi spelt flours, lending a rich, smooth flavor to the olive oil-enriched dough. Toppings rotate seasonally, but the gentle fusion of Japanese and European flavors is especially apparent—and delicious—in this springy variation.”

— Emily Wilson and Jamie Feldmar, The Angel April 1, 2026

“This Apple Galette is just extremely, extremely delicious. There's something incredibly satisfying about working to recreate something that you love to eat — that's one of the joys of cooking from recipes — and Fuyuko's baking is so worthy of that goal. I first heard about Fuyuko's amazing baked goods on Instagram from Bill Addison, and the first time I tried her incredible galettes I was hooked. They're not too sweet”

— Brian McGinn, Director, The Deligram December 22, 2022

 

“Local cookbook author and teacher Sonoko Sakai introduced the city to her sister, the accomplished Fuyuko Kondo. Through Sakai’s website, Kondo frequently offers her picture-perfect apple galette: She uses nutty Tehachapi Grain Project flour for the crust and arranges slices of Granny Smiths and Honey Crisps in hypnotic circles, scented with vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon and honey.”

— Bill Addison, Restaurant Critic, Los Angeles Times April 17, 2021

“THE SECRET TO PEACH GALETTE is to make a pate brisée and then make an almond base under the peaches using almond flour. Crisp crust, fruit that is not too sweet - perfect! While in Los Angeles, Christopher Kimball enjoyed this peach galette, made by Fuyuko Kondo, who trained under Robuchon and also worked at LeNotre. ”

— Christopher Kimball, Milk Street June 07, 2021
