Desserts International was established over two decades ago by Chef Gunther Heiland. One of just a few certified master pastry chefs in the country, Chef Heiland has held executive positions in Iran, Portugal, Germany, and the United States, and competed on three consecutive Culinary Olympic teams, winning gold medals for all of his entries in the 1976, 1980, and 1984 games. Desserts International, his 6000 sq-foot wholesale business, thrived for over twenty years, shipping to some of the country's finest hotels, restaurants and casinos from Las Vegas to New York City. Luckily, when it came time to choose a successor, Chef Heiland had dozens of rising-star and established chefs to choose from, all of which have interned under his watchful eye and relentless instruction.
