Introducing MARIA, our pastry chef

Sweet Creations Made with Passion

As a trained pastry chef, Maria has been working in the VALARA pastry shop for two years.

She also makes homemade bread, Christmas cookies, fresh cakes, ice cream, sorbets, and jams—all with great dedication and artisanal skill.

Our Interview with MARIA

You work in the pastry shop—what do you do all day?

I prepare the desserts for the evening service and am constantly coming up with new sweet creations for our guests. I also bake birthday cakes, make homemade bread and Christmas cookies, and prepare fresh cakes, ice cream, sorbets, and jams. I especially enjoy creating moments of pure delight with my desserts.

When did you join the VALARA team?

I've been part of the team for nine years. I started out as a breakfast chef, then worked in breakfast service for six years. For the past two years, I've been working as a pastry chef, and I'm happy to be able to put my training and passion to use every day.

What do you like best about the VALARA Hotel?

I especially appreciate the family-like atmosphere. The bosses are always there when you need support and are happy to help. When I started, I didn’t speak any German—but I was still given the chance to grow and learn all my tasks step by step. I’m also really happy that I can work here alongside my partner and that our days off are coordinated. And of course, I enjoy the beautiful location—perfect for walks with our dog or sledding in the winter.
