In 1979, First Lady Rosalynn Carter hired Chef Mesnier to bake fabulous desserts at the White House. For 25 years Roland Mesnier created thousands of elegant, delicious, and dazzling desserts for Presidents Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, and George W. Bush. He insisted all desserts served in the White House would come only from the White House kitchen. An accomplished culinary instructor, as well as master chef, Mesnier now shares his expertise with home chefs in his first book, Dessert University.
