Executive Pastry Chef

Mark Perkins

At Rosewood London, Mark is responsible for producing pastry delicacies for the entire hotel, from Mirror Room’s award winning afternoon tea to an extravagant event in our Grand Ballroom. Since joining Rosewood London, Mark has incorporated his artistic talents into the tradition of afternoon tea, and is constantly pushing creative boundaries to ensure Mirror Room’s offering is one to remember. In 2017, Mark launched a unique art-inspired afternoon tea in London, creating colourful desserts celebrating legendary artists such as Banksy, Yayoi Kusama, Rodin and Van Gogh. Following its success, he revisited the concept in 2019, creating a selection of pastries inspired by Antony Gormley's most famous works.

For this afternoon tea, I did a lot of research about Antony Gormley and his works, in order to encapsulate them in the most interesting way possible. Creating edible versions of the pieces was both challenging and fun, allowing me to experiment with various shapes and colours. We look forward to serving our guests something they may have never seen before and will hopefully enjoy eating!
