The Pastry Chef

David Booth Terrible Truffles Chocolatier Ever since he was child, David Booth has had an unusual fascination with food, especially desserts. As a teenager, he would buy chocolate magazines, and cook books, and experiment in his mother's kitchen.

At age 14, David began working at Casey's Bakery in Oak Bay, and then on to Murchie's where he completed his apprenticeship under the direction of Pastry Chef Daniel Vokey.

In 1993, David married his highschool sweetheart, Vlasta, and the two of them ventured off to Montreal, Quebec. There David continued mastering the art of traditional French pastries with veteran Patissier Guy Lafont at "La Brioche Lyonnaise."

Now settled back in picturesque Victoria, BC, David and Vlasta have been operating the Humboldt House Bed & Breakfast. Terrible Truffles is the culmination of years of training, tasting, and a passion for quality chocolate.
