Chosen Chefs: Sarah Levy of Sarah's Pastries & Candies, Chicago

Chicago native Sarah Levy has been a chocoholic since birth. “Growing up I’d have chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast and a chocolate bar for dinner,” she said. Now, as the owner of the Windy City’s popular Sarah’s Pastries & Candies , she can have as much as her heart desires.

“But I have to be careful,” the bubbly Levy told us with a laugh. “I think I gained about 30 pounds during the first three years we were open.”

Levy, 30, started her Oak Street business, which specializes in morning pastries, specialty cakes, tarts and chocolate gift baskets, in March 2004, when she was just 22 years old.

After graduating, Levy attended a six-month program at the French Pastry School and started making chocolates out of her mother’s downtown Chicago home.

But, as with all Chinese mom’s, she rarely, if ever, follows a recipe. We always joked that my mom was a fantastic cook, unless she had to follow a recipe. In the end, I opted for a variant of one of the few things my mom baked growing up, a Marble Dark Chocolate Vanilla Bean Bundt Cake....
