Fascinated by the world of pastry from a very young age, Chong Ko Wai completed his professional training in Malaysia and chose international competitions to showcase his talent, philosophy and approach to pastry, specializing in artistic creations, fusion pastry and chocolate.

His creations require extreme attention in all aspects of flavour, design, and construction. His unique philosophy and precision has earned him the title as an ambassador of Elle et Vire. His accolades, including achieving 4th place at Coupe du Monde de la Pâtisserie in 2015 and being the first ever Malaysian to grace the podium of the Mondial Des Art Sucre, attest to his expertise and unwavering commitment to excellence.

Chef Chong is among the most successful trainers on the Asian scene; in 2019 he founded Texture by C3, together with Lawrence Bobo.
