WHERE WILL I BE COOKING:

Rebecca Masson is Houston’s own “Sugar Fairy,” a renowned pastry chef and owner/operator of H-Town’s Fluff Bake Bar. The Wyoming native cut her teeth at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris and started her career in New York, where she became head pastry chef at The Red Cat under Chef Jimmy Bradley. After arriving in Houston she worked with chefs like Charles Clark and Southern Smoke Foundation’s own Chris Shepherd, before opening Fluff in 2011. That same year, she competed in the second season of Top Chef: Just Desserts
