Pastry chef and content creator Allison Chen joins the pod to share her unconventional journey from studying neuroscience … to attending pastry school in France. Allison reflects on learning French pastry techniques, running a tasting-menu out of her college apartment, and how documenting the experience online unexpectedly launched her career as a creator. 


Later, Allison talks about bringing one of her favorite childhood desserts, tangyuan, to Food Network’s digital series Dig In With, why food stories resonate more than recipes alone, and how she approaches making baking feel approachable for millions of followers.
