Cédric Grolet (born 28 August 1985, Firminy, France) is a French pastry chef. He is the executive pastry chef at Le Meurice in Paris.

Grolet's pastries focus on fruits and the reinterpretation of traditional French desserts.[1] He is known for creating desserts that have a likeness to the fruits from which they're made.[2] In order to achieve this effect, Grolet molds a thin shell of white chocolate and airbrushes it to replicate the appearance and texture of fruits such as lemons, apples, and figs.[2]

Grolet is also the author of Fruits, a cookbook that explores his fruit-based desserts.[3]

In March 2018 he opened his first pastry shop within Le Meurice in Paris.[4][5]
