Competing against the best chefs in the country, Barry won the title of National Chocolate Master and will now go on to represent the UK and Ireland at the global final in Paris next year.
Barry visited his old college in November to give young students a master class in chocolate:
“Studying at Tresham was the foundation for my career. The level of teaching and expertise here is exceptional and their industry contacts helped me win my first job at The Connaught Hotel in London,” said Barry.
Barry went on to work with Raymond Blanc at Le Manoir aux Quat’ Saisons and honed his patisserie skills at Harrods and The Wolseley in Piccadilly.
