About our team

A small team with one shared obsession: getting every detail right, every day. Here's who you'll meet at The Crescent.

At work in the Beurre kitchen

Founder & Head Pastry Chef

Raf Perussi

A finalist on Bake Off: The Professionals.

Raf trained in classic French patisserie and brings that discipline to everything Beurre makes — the laminated viennoiserie, the entremets, the showpiece celebration cakes. His name is on the door, and his standards are on every plate.

The hands behind the daily gâteaux, tarts and entremets — laminating, glazing and finishing every piece by hand.

Our bakers

In before dawn Thursday to Sunday for the croissants, cruffins and éclairs that sell out fastest.

Our counter team

The welcome you get on The Crescent — happy to talk you through the counter and find your new favourite.
