Nancy's Fancy Gelato

GELATO FROM JAMES BEARD WINNER NANCY SILVERTON As a two time James Beard Award winning chef, Nancy Silverton is in very rare company. In 2014 she won the James Beard Award for Outstanding Chef (their most prestigious award) and in 1990 for the Best Pastry Chef of the Year. Chef Silverton discovered her passion for cooking working in a vegetarian kitchen in her college dormitory in Sonoma, California, then more formally pursued her culinary education at Le Cordon Bleu in London and the Lenotre Culinary Institute in France. After a legendary baking career in which she redefined dessert as the head pastry chef at the iconic Spago in Los Angeles, brought artisanal bread to California as founder of La Brea bakery, and dazzled her following with revolutionary pizza at her Mozza restaurants, Nancy has turned her focus to Italian gelato. She continues creating, innovating and inspiring by bringing unparalleled gelato and sorbetto into our homes with Nancy's Fancy.
