LUXARDO & ELENKA PASTRY
Pastry Bases
Every finished pastry starts with a base. This is where you will find the semifreddo, mousse and oven-mix foundations we bring in from Italy for Canadian pastry kitchens — powders and pastes that hydrate cleanly, whip to volume and hold their structure through freezing, proofing and service. Weigh, mix and finish with your own flavours and inclusions.
Why pastry chefs start with our bases
Repeatable structure
A base carries the aeration, stabilisation and mouthfeel so the same recipe behaves the same way in January and in July, batch after batch.
One base, many desserts
A single semifreddo or mousse base becomes a dozen menu items once you add your own purees, pastes, liqueurs and garnishes.
Italian formulation, Canadian stock
Elenka and Luxardo formulas, held in our Toronto warehouse in case sizes built for working pastry kitchens, not test batches.
