Celebrated pastry chef Hedy Goldsmith helms the kitchen at Verde at Perez Art Museum Miami as Executive Chef where she recently debuted a new menu. A 2012 and 2013 James Beard Award Finalist for the nationally-contested Outstanding Pastry Chef, Goldsmith also authored “Baking Out Loud: Fun Desserts With Big Flavors,” and has been featured on the TODAY Show, Food Network and its show “Iron Chef America,” where her all-star team of women defeated Chef Bobby Flay, The New York Times, PEOPLE Magazine, and other programs and publications.
Goldsmith sweetened up and revolutionized the Miami culinary scene with her signature, retro-modern desserts at Michael’s Genuine Food and Drink, by James Beard Award-winning chef Michael Schwartz, before she moved to Los Angeles, where she launched three product lines under Sweet Hedy. She returned to Miami with her wife and their two Shih Tzus in 2018.
