Although he announced in June 2019 the closure of his starred table in the 15th arrondissement, the media and friendly Cyril Lignac continues to operate his other restaurants in the 6th and 11th arrondissements and above all to develop his network of pastry and chocolate shops. Mercotte's sidekick in "Le meilleur pâtissier" on M6 leads his sweet adventure with Benoît Couvrand, who was once a pastry chef at Fauchon. In the summer of 2019, the duo had five elegant and sober pastries to their credit, including the one on rue de Sèvres. Among his creations, a delicious lemon tart with its white chocolate frame and Equinox (vanilla cream, caramel and speculoos biscuit).

Carl Marletti made his classes at the Grand Hotel Intercontinental in Paris before launching himself in the adventure in 2007, from his shop does not dissolve. His recipe: high-end pastry at relatively affordable prices. His shop is chic with its gray grinding and the sober interior, like the one that works inside.

MACARONS ET CHOCOLATS PIERRE HERMÉ

Chocolatier
4.5/5
4 reviews

This shop open in July 2008 is exclusively devoted to macaroons and chocolates as its name suggests. It is a small candy box in dark and cool brown shades, decorated with colourful and bright tiles that recall packaging. The macaroons are designed in various flavours: vanilla, amber, pink, jasmine, cinnamon etc., and some innovations like macaroon with wasibi and grapefruit comfit or chocolate "pure origin". Chocolate is transformed in to sweets and chocolate bars. A ganache bitter chocolate and nougatine with cocoa beans coated with black chocolate fall among the Choc Chocolat specialties. The Bonbon chocolate macaroon (a praline macaroon, chocolate and paste of melting almond coated with black chocolate) is an innovation. You can also buy fruit jellies, jams, dry biscuits etc. It is at Drugstore Publicis, one of the most mythical places of Champs-Élysées that Pierre Hermé setup his last shop, Macaroons & Chocolates where he offers his collection of rare macaroons and chocolates. With the new Pierre Hermé e- shop, home deliveries of macaroons are available in less than 48 hours. Chocolate boxes between €20 and €60.

Is it because of the elegant grey color of the front or because of the name - Antoine - written in large letters above the window, in any case, this bakery-pastry shop immediately caught our eye and titillated our curiosity. The welcome is smiling, and the breads are of high quality, as are the pastries (seasonal fruit pies, chocolate cakes, lightnings...). For lunch, the house offers different options for a quick lunch at the office. A selection of gourmet products are also on sale: La Gosse lemonades, Bovetti spreads, Patrick Fonte nectars…

In this Japanese district of Paris, this Franco-Japanese bakery belongs to the owner of the restaurant Aki at 11 on the same street, hence its name. There are pastries, cakes and French breads, but the interest is to come and buy Japanese products. Among the cakes: matcha (green tea) and azuki (red bean) pies, matcha flash, etc. For lunch salads or bentos: breaded pork, chicken, takoyaki, yakisoba (fried noodles), etc. The sandwich made of Japanese sandwich bread, breaded pork (tonkatsu) and raw vegetables with a touch of mayonnaise is really delicious. A gourmet address that is out of the ordinary.

Heaven that they are beautiful and light these cakes angel who landed in our capital without making noise! It seems that the Japanese are crazy… They call them the cakes cloth… These small treats are taken away or they have the particularity of taking care of our line. It's just a mixture of egg whites and rice flour, flavored with caramel, raspberry, exotic fruits, matcha tea, lemon, yuzu, etc. They are sold at the unit or by eight, well presented in origami boxes and a 5 roll-cakes box allows to taste different fragrances.

LA PÂTISSERIE BY CYRIL LIGNAC

Patisserie
3.8/5
8 reviews

Just opposite his restaurant Le Chardenoux, Cyril Lignac, the media leader, opened his pastry, which was the result of a meeting with the talented pastry chef Benoit Couvrand. In a very contemporary setting, some traditional pastries are revisited and adapted to the tastes of the moment thanks to subtle associations. Chocolate, caramel butter, but also seasonal fruit are the bases of beautiful gourmet flavours: The strawberry pie adopts the pistachios in Sicily, the Éclair flash blends with nuts, the Lemon Pie or the Paris-Brest have a very innovative look. Pâtisserie offers a choice of breads, pastries, salads and sandwiches all year round. A second address was created in September 2013 in the 16 th arrondissement. Whether it be here or in the 11 th, prices go a bit: € 5 for a pastry, € 2,30 for a chocolate loaf and € 1,20 for the Tradition wand.

Fabrice Le Bourdat attracts customers a bit like a magnet. They come from the Aligre market to buy their hot baguette(s) and/or pastries. It is true that the gentleman has a beautiful past: Nantais trained at Debotté's, he worked at the Palais in Biarritz, at Martinez in Cannes, at Plaza and Bristol in Paris. Just that... All his cakes make us melt with pleasure. Special mention for the madeleines, the Goût de paradis (mango-passion, coconut mousse) and the Tatin tart, made of a caramelized apple placed on a Breton pallet... The simple tarts do not deserve it. This bakery and pastry shop along Trousseau Square is also a tea room.

This beautifully decorated store makes the diabetic happy. Alixe Bornon, the owner of the place, she is diabetic since the age of 13, offers pastries with the glycemic index controlled. So, she worked with a Master pastry chef-chocolatier and a Medecine endocrinologist. For two years, they performed many tests to establish the glycemic index of each recipe based on natural combinations ( ancient grain flours, pure chocolates, unrefined sugars, and so on). Here, spices, alcohols and infusions play the role of flavor enhancer usually held by sugar. The most curious can even see the laboratory in the back of the store.

We know that Americans are big consumers of ice cream, but to make this pleasure less caloric, they invented 0% frozen yogurt. It is this ice cream that has made Yogurt Factory a success. Frozen yogurt can be eaten on its own or with toppings that personalize it, i.e. fresh fruit, coulis, Kinder Bueno, Kit Kat, etc. This is a little less light, but it works well. The flavours change regularly and the smoothies are named after mythical couples, such as Bonnie & Clyde, made with strawberries and bananas, or Romeo & Juliet, made with blackberries and mangoes. Other treats include milkshakes and waffles.

In addition to its tea room in the Luxembourg Museum, Angelina is also present on the left bank in the lively rue du Bac, one of the gourmet arteries of the 7th arrondissement. The shop is all in white, Belle Epoque style revisited. Beware, unlike the other establishments of this unavoidable institution of the Parisian sweet landscape, it is not a tea room where you can taste its specialties, always so sublime. The macaroons and the famous Mont-Blanc take pride of place, alongside other classics such as the millefeuille and the fig tart (in September-October). Fans of the famous hot chocolate will opt for the Choc Africain... with dark chocolate.

The decoration is simple and modern at the same time, a little strict for our taste - is Swiss - but the space is very airy. You will find all the collections of the brand where the creativity of the chocolate makers is highlighted and you can even buy chocolates by weight. In order to be different, Lindt plays the proximity: bars and homemade ice-creams are made on site. For a gourmet break, Chocolat Bar displays hot and cold drinks and desserts with Lindt chocolate that can also be taken away.

It takes a bold move to set up shop right next door to a colleague, but nevertheless a competitor as renowned as La Maison du Chocolat.

That said, this brilliant chocolatier has once again imagined an astonishing setting to magnify his chocolate offering. His talent as a sculptor is expressed here by long vertical iron rods - branches or roots - that run along the walls and are echoed at the feet of the central display case.

In a nutshell, the version from the Empire of the Rising Sun is lighter, airier, less sweet; and it doesn't have a cookie base. It's more like a cheesecake soufflé. Takumi cheesecakes are made right before your eyes. There are six versions: raspberry, black sesame, matcha, yuzu, chocolate and plain.

The "Dune blanche" was born. Two versions are available: the classic, available all the time, and the ephemeral, produced every weekend by combining the cream with seasonal fruit or, like autumn, with gianduja, praline...

TORAYA

Patisserie

This tea room opened in 1980 by Toraya, the famous Japanese pastry brand, is a small wonder even if the decor has been redone in a more Western spirit. Nevertheless, it remains one of the most refined places in the Capital, as do the staff, very chic and a little stuffy. The Parisian branch, redesigned by Sylvain Dubuisson, offers a relaxing atmosphere that perfectly matches the traditional pastry shop (wagashi in Japanese). Made from rice flour, wheat, agar-agar and beans, the Japanese pastry shop, created a thousand years ago, is a hymn to the beauty of nature, and Toraya also offers delicacies that can be enjoyed throughout the seasons. In spring, you must succumb to Tô-Zakura, a small flowery truffle of white and pink vermicelli, in summer you melt for hana-ôgi, a range in white jelly, in autumn you get enthusiastic about kozue, and in winter you warm up with a usagi-man, a small white rabbit. Inseparable from pastry, Toraya offers a wide range of green teas, including the divine gyokuro.

Vanilla eclair, babka, flan... enough to tickle the most discerning palates who will jealously take their sweet or savory delights (sandwiches and buns) with them, or savor them on the spot. Good to know: the chef regularly hosts master classes (see the website for the dates).

DEMAIN

Bakery

It's a concept we really like, and for lots of good reasons! Because Demain is an anti-gaspi bakery: who hasn't wondered about the waste represented by the mountains of breads and pastries thrown away because they haven't been sold? Here, every evening, 4 Parisian bakeries supply us with unsold products from the same day, which will be sold in the rue Saint-Maur boutique the following day. The result: products that have of course kept their flavor, but generally lost half their price!

LE COMPTOIR BELGE

Patisserie

The Belgian waffle, what a delight especially when it attracts chocolate, whipped cream, caramel coulis with Isigny butter and Guérande salt, vergeoise (a soft sugar cooked twice, very typical in Belgium) or vanilla ice cream from Madagascar. You can't resist passing in front of the shop where good smells emanate. These waffles, made by a master waffle maker, are really delicious and their price is not at all excessive.

PÂTISSERIE BONTEMPS

Patisserie

Sablé, everyone knows. But Fiona Leluc's sablé comes from the common. This young woman, whose father has a very well-known Lebanese table, left the world of finance for the softer of the pastry. From Lebanon it has kept taste and oriental flavours, but with a Breton husband unable to escape salt and sablé. So why not drop this little cake to make it the flagship product of its pastry? It's a good idea because it's off from its sablé sablé, which accompanies tea or coffee. And its sablé inspired by the Paris-Brest, where the very fine praline cream is topped with a walnut of slightly roasted piedmont? A pleasure… We fear that the fruit of passion, the banana boom, etc., all these sanded, very sweet, are fondants, light and their leaking hearts. They are either individually or in a more family-friendly format, sometimes in flower form. Another nice surprise: an extremely perfumed lemon cake. In this adventure, Fiona led his sister Fatina, a photographer who has an eye for the garden. The bakery has a boudoir where, on the other hand, we do not boycott our pleasure…
