Otto Tay: the renewal of traditional Asian flavors
𝐎𝐭𝐭𝐨 𝐓𝐚𝐲, co-founder of Voilà Pâtisserie and member of the Malaysian winning team of the Coupe du Monde de la Pâtisserie in 2019, created a dessert using traditional Asian ingredients, particularly Oolong tea. “The Oolong” has at its base a chocolate crème anglaise especially prepared with the 𝐋𝐚𝐛-𝐎-𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐟 𝟓, the multifunctional countertop machine for pastry, chocolate, gastronomy, and gelato with more than 60 programs designed to express culinary creativity to the fullest.
The Carpigiani Lab-O-Chef 5 is a countertop multifunction machine built for pastry shops, restaurants, gelaterias and venues that want one compact unit for hot and cold preparations — creams, sauces, chocolate, custards and, with the optional Gelato Kit, small-batch gelato. If you are weighing it against dedicated equipment, it sits between a pasteuriser and a batch freezer, and pairs neatly with display in your display cabinets. As the Australian distributor for the full Carpigiani range, Majors Group can match the right configuration to your menu, plus finance, installation, service and genuine parts.
