Amen! There is a God - Des Gateaux et du Pain - Paris, France

Here we go again, more cake! But I love it, I can't live without it and I am not ashamed :/.

I think I have a new favourite patisserie in Paris, everythingI have tried from here has been so delightful. I cannot wait to go back. Let me share with you, while you drool over your screen. 

Pistachio Cherry Saint Honore - €6.80

Pistachio cream filled choux pastry surrounded by pistachio chantilly cream nested on top of a shortcrust disc and topped with a stewed cherry.

Not your average saint honore, I really love the contrasting colours of this dessert. For me, I always find pistachio desserts to be quite medicinal tasting, this saint honore was anything but that. It is the best pistachio flavoured dessert I have ever had.

Raspberry Mascarpone Tarts - €6.50

Short crust tart shells filled with almond cream, mascarpone cream and topped with fresh raspberries.

J'adore la Fraise Tart

Cherry Clafoutis

Also offering a range of bread and viennoiseries.  There is something here for everyone, they even have icecream! 

Croissants - €1.50

Todays haul was Calisson (front left) -  sparkling wine blancmange, marzipan and apricot compote on top of a soft biscuit €6.00, a raspberry mascarpone tart and I just had to double up on the saint honore, it is one of my favourite things to eat and I refuse to share!

Finishing off my dessert smorgasboard..

Lipstik Abricot  - €6.50

Vanilla mousse, apricot compote, vanilla cream and almond biscuit 

Such a beautiful and elegant dessert, I was really suprised at how it tasted. So light and delicate, the perfect dessert to end my day.
