BottomKate Reid is a visionary entrepreneur and the founder of Lune Croissanterie, a renowned bakery established in Melbourne. Her path to becoming a celebrated pastry chef and the creator of an internationally acclaimed bakery has been anything but conventional. Kate initially pursued aerospace engineering at RMIT University before following her lifelong passion for Formula 1 racing. After three years, however, she realised that the reality of the job didn’t match her expectations, prompting her return to Melbourne with a fresh goal: to forge a career in pastry. Kate honed her skills at one of Paris’ top bakeries before dedicating countless hours to perfecting the croissant back in Melbourne. In 2012, she took a bold step and opened Lune Croissanterie, a small bakery focused exclusively on croissants. Her latest book is Destination Moon: A Memoir of Fast Cars, French Pastries and Finding Purpose.
