De Buyer has been designing and manufacturing kitchen utensils for professionals for over a century. It is therefore an honor to be associated with the largest and most prestigious gastronomy competition and to see the world's greatest chefs training with these products in order to achieve the best results. The success of a recipe depends on technique, the quality of the ingredients, and the utensils.

De Buyer AFFINITY, the stainless steel of choice for top chefs
 

The contestants will use a kit containing products from the De Buyer AFFINITY range. The utensils in this collection are made from an innovative, hyper-conductive, multi-layer (5-layer) stainless steel material that allows for even cooking while preserving the vitamins in food.

In addition, De Buyer has designed a custom stainless steel saucepan to meet the specific needs of chefs and the constraints of the competition. Davy Tissot, Bocuse d'Or 2021 and President of the Bocuse d'Or Executive Committee, adds:

I wanted a saucepan that respects the chef's technique while pushing the boundaries of traditional utensils. De Buyer understood the challenge and was able to transform this request into a successful special production. It is this ability to innovate with us, the chefs, that is the strength of the partnership.
