Rafa Gorrotxategi is the third generation of the Gorrotxategi Family. Since he was a child, he has lived among ovens and cakes.
When he was 24 years old, he started working in his family's workshop together with his father José Mari Gorrotxategi, attending several courses on Confectionery and Chocolate in Germany, France and also in Spain.
This new step of Rafa Gorrotxategi is a step forward in quality and innovation. He will surprise us with new products and pairings that will try to bring the artisan bakery up to levels of high gastronomy.
During all these years, he has demonstrated that the high chocolatery has no mysteries for him; now he will show us that the high confectionery, neither.
