i. Biography
Born on 14 April 1986, Shahrzad Shokouhivand has built a profile around pastry work and enterprise, with her name now attached to Femmechic in Tehran and Atelier Shahrzad in Tehran. The emphasis here is on structure: formal training, then founding work, then a professional identity built from both. In that sense, Shahrzad Shokouhivand reads less as a brand exercise than as a methodical shift from study into authorship.
The Path
Training at Islamic Azad University, Science and Research Branch and Le Cordon Bleu, Paris gives Shahrzad Shokouhivand a dual footing: local academic grounding and international pastry instruction. By 2020, when Shahrzad went on to work as founder at Atelier Shahrzad in Tehran, Iran, the line from education to founding was already clear. The craft had become a professional platform. The current titles are direct: pastry chef and entrepreneur. With Femme Chic and Atelier Shahrzad in Tehran tied to Shahrzad Shokouhivand, the work sits at the point where kitchen discipline and business formation meet. The result is a profile built on continuity rather than excess — training, founding, and maintaining a visible professional presence in the same city.
The Work Today
Today, pastry chef and entrepreneur are not separate lanes so much as paired functions. For Shahrzad Shokouhivand, Femmechic and Atelier Shahrzad in Tehran mark two expressions of that pairing, one built around a contemporary identity and the other around a named atelier structure. The craft is visible in the way those roles are held together: precision in the kitchen, shape in the business, and a clear professional line across both.
