Bill Dertouzos is the creator of Dainties Cupcakes and the chef and co-owner of  Flatbush & J, the Hollywood catering company that took its name from the streets in Brooklyn where Bill grew up.

At Dainties Cupcakes, Bill and his partner Susan McAlindon, have created a sophisticated take on the traditional cupcake -– a moist and flavorful chocolate cake filled with a lightly-flavored, real whipped cream, then dipped in chocolate ganache, with a small dollop of the flavored whipped cream on top.  Each cupcake is topped with tasty treat, a garnish that reflects the flavor of the whipped cream inside –- from coffee beans to chewy caramels or a single raspberry.

A graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, Bill Dertouzos has more than 23 years of four-star and four-diamond hotel experience.  His catering creations parallel his world travels and fervent culinary experimentation, bringing a style all his own that's unique, fresh and fused with international flavors.
