Pastry chef for starred establishments, Sandrine decided to change her life after health problems. She takes advantage of the confinement to reflect on the future of her professional life. The pastry must change, reinvent itself and offer alternatives to desserts that are too sweet and too greasy.

It took her three years at Sandrine Baumann-Hautin to launch her start-up “SaIn patisserie santé”, with the desire to write a new history of desserts. Less sugar, less fat, tailor-made for the most fragile people who need to be accompanied throughout their treatments. Sandrine Baumann-Hautin is committed to making us rediscover the recipes of our grandmothers version 2023! Taste, natural, good, ethical, because the body and the brain must rediscover the sense of healthy.

I haven’t dared eat dessert for months. I’m afraid of sugar! He is our enemy.

The Rafaël Institute of Levallois-Perret is the benchmark for integrative medicine. An individual-centered approach that brings together conventional medicine and complementary practices. For patients, all supportive care is free. Sandrine Baumann-Hautin intervenes every Tuesday and Wednesday. His workshops are taken over by patients. These women come to seek help, comfort, tips for adapting their food to the side effects of treatment. Since her breast cancer, Michèle, who loves to cook, has changed her habits. She no longer buys the same products and prefers sugars with a low glycemic index. Sylvie, who has been battling the disease for six long years, goes without a birthday cake for fear that the sugar will have a harmful effect on her body. In this post-cancer house, these women relearn gustatory pleasure, without frustration, without guilt.

It is also for Sandrine Baumann-Hautin, elected Woman of Health 2022, the opportunity to do prevention. In the next few years in France, the cases of obesity and cardiovascular diseases will explode due to a poor lifestyle of teenagers who are too sedentary. Relearning how to eat healthy, cooking raw products using simple recipes, rediscovering the taste of good food… a clear path for pastry chef Sandrine Baumann-Hautin.
