AUX MERVEILLEUX

Patisserie
4.5/5
6 reviews

The most delicious Merveilleux made before your eyes in a pastry shop that you should not just photograph. Light, crispy and melting at the same time, these cakes are a specialty of the North. Frédéric Vaucamps has made the Merveilleux lighter and tastier. Working in total transparency, this craftsman has selected excellent products to make his Merveilleux to be eaten as individual pieces or as cakes for 4 to 24 people. Another wonderful store in the 6th district to succumb to this divinely diabolic temptation.

There's nothing better than creating a joyful, gourmet universe in a small cake! The Little Petits Gâteaux team will be delighted to help you personalize your cakes. In the Ainay district, a tea room which, despite its half-French, half-English name, claims its "French touch".

PALOMAS

Chocolatier

Founded in 1917 by Louis Palomas, between Place Bellecour and the quays of the Saône, this company is the guardian of Lyon's chocolate-making tradition. Under the direction of master pastry chef and chocolatier Dominique Clerc, Palomas makes hand-crafted chocolates in its workshops from quality raw materials, from chocolate of course, to fruit from small local producers. House specialties include Palet de Fourvière, crunchy on top (fine meringue) and soft on the inside (Piedmont hazelnut praline), Amandes de Bellecour or the famous Délicia, "the devil's wafer", with 72% cocoa. It's so good to sin by indulgence!

MISS MADELEINE

Patisserie

In the gourmet series of single-product boutiques, here's the madeleine. Childhood memories or not, the madeleine offers much more than a comforting bite in this deliciously regressive boutique. Young chef Antoine Dubois revisits the madeleine in all sizes, up to XXL, with real cakes - and even logs for the holidays - and in all flavors. Made with top-quality ingredients, including Valrhona chocolates for the hulled madeleines (our favorite...), the madeleines reach their peak in the pastry version, with "classics" and regular novelties (pineapple, speculoos...). Another delightful boutique in the 6th arrondissement.

PAVLOVAS PAR JOEL MAIER

Patisserie

When it comes to desserts, pavlova is the gateway to heaven. What is a pavlova? It's a dessert of incredible lightness, just like the Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova for whom the recipe was created. It's made from a base of meringue, both crunchy and soft, topped with whipped cream and fresh fruit. So when master pastry chef Joël Maier offers us the "king dessert" on a seasonal menu of individual or shared pavlovas, each more sublime than the last, it's an absolute delight. Pavlovas to take away, but also to enjoy every weekend with the brunch at the Salle à Manger on rue Mercière.

MAISON ANTOINE

Patisserie

Maison Antoine may no longer be located on Quai Saint-Antoine, but it's still firmly established on this corner of Rue de la Charité. A beautiful gourmet showcase full of natural light, with large bay windows and a small terrace just a stone's throw from Place Bellecour for a gourmet break. A Maison Antoine that breaks away from the codes of the traditional tearoom to offer a range of tasty snacks, from sandwiches to poke bowls. Pastries that combine flavor and beauty with subtly revisited classics, some of the city's best viennoiseries and breads made from regional flours. From gourmet breakfasts to shareable snacks.

MAISON TERRASSON

Bakery

In this category, it's tricky to classify an address as a bakery rather than a patisserie, especially when it deserves to be in both! Based in the Ainay district - with a new store in Sainte-Foy - Alena and Geoffroy Terrasson run a gourmet establishment that excels in breads, viennoiseries (also marvelous!), cakes, tarts and galettes des rois (one of our favorites). As for the breads, 100% natural sourdoughs, long fermentations, organic flours, "classics" and the more surprising, a rye pie to die for... And let's not forget the pâtés croûtes d'une maison gourmande.
