The best pastry shops Alpes

For several years now, Benjamin Chassaing has taken over from Sébastien François to continue his gourmet creations and the history of this patisserie, which was born 100 years ago and became Desserts et Chocolat 30 years ago. Know-how, passion and philosophy remain unchanged. Seasonal fruits, quality ingredients and unique delicacies: pastries, chocolates, confectionery, macaroons, ice creams... What's changed? The premises are much bigger and more functional, perfect for enjoying these little masterpieces at any time of day!

Better than social networks, the two addresses of Comme à la Maison. To see life in the pink, you not only have to savor the good products prepared by a team of happy bakers who love life, but also meet real people in real places. Here, everything is homemade by passionate people around the tireless Alexis Daudin. Born in the family bakery, he has kept his passion for his job while reinventing it with ever healthier (less salt) and ever more gourmet breads. Pastries in the same spirit, including choux too choux, flans not ordinary, and sandwiches that make you enjoy your meal. Cracking address.

Discover this artisan chocolatier-patissier who perpetuates the tradition of the genuine and authentic Savoy cake, light and tasty. For the record, the Savoy cake dates back to 1348, and the recipe comes from Pierre d'Yenne. As for cakes, you'll be able to sink your teeth into old-fashioned pastries like conversation, national (a Savoy cake with almonds) or tomme de Yenne (a meringue with plain buttercream).

In 1848, Françoise Guilloud married Pierre Labully. Originally from France, she married this Savoyard while Saint-Genix was still under the sovereignty of Piedmont-Sardinia. In her luggage, she took with her the secret recipe for a brioche scented with orange blossom. Her husband added his personal touch by adding pralines to the original recipe, and it was under the name of "Gâteau Labully" that he marketed it, eclipsing the Saint-Genix appellation. This confusion persists to this day, with many variations.

A real craftsman in Drumettaz-Clarafond, in the heart of the village! Dominique and Edith Sabourdy are the patrons of this very welcoming bakery.

Délicat Délice lives up to its name: on the menu, pastries, chocolates and even ice cream in summer. The cakes are fine, tasty, and the flavors change with the seasons. An appetizing range of cakes is launched every Christmas, and custom-made cakes can be ordered. We recommend the Tikaho, ultra chocolatey. As for the chocolates, the range is good and varied, with a large choice for Easter and Christmas. We appreciate the pretty terrace which overhangs the Foron and which allows to have a pleasant view on the mountains while tasting its small sweetness.

Everyone has the right to indulge in good food. A big bravo to Liber'Tart, which is not only a 100% gluten-free and healthy patisserie, but also a Japanese-influenced canteen, blending in every case flavors from here and abroad.
