Full menu

Viennoiserie

  • Croissant aux AmandesDay-old croissant soaked in syrup, filled and topped with almond cream and sliced almonds, then rebaked; dense, sweet, and crisp-edged.
  • Pain aux RaisinsA spiral of croissant dough spread with crème pâtissière and rum-soaked raisins, soft in the middle and crisp at the edges.
  • Chausson aux PommesPuff pastry turnover filled with chunky apple compote, scored on top and glazed to a lacquered finish.
  • Kouign-AmannA Breton pastry of laminated dough layered with sugar and salted butter, baked until the outside caramelizes into a toffee-like shell.

Pain

  • Pain de CampagneA rustic country loaf blending white and whole-grain flours, leavened with levain for a thick crust and mild tang.
  • Pain aux NoixHearty whole wheat loaf packed with walnuts, earthy and faintly bitter, a natural partner for a cheese board.
  • FougasseProvençal leaf-shaped flatbread slashed with openings, brushed with olive oil and studded with olives or herbs.
  • Brioche NanterreA loaf of buttery brioche baked in a pan from several dough balls, ideal for toast or pain perdu.

Pâtisserie

  • Tarte aux FraisesCrisp pâte sucrée with vanilla crème pâtissière and glazed fresh strawberries arranged in tight rows.
  • OpéraThin almond sponge layers soaked in coffee syrup, alternated with coffee buttercream and ganache under a glossy chocolate glaze.
  • Tarte TatinUpside-down apple tart of butter-caramelized apples on a pastry base, deeply amber and soft-set, often served with crème fraîche.
  • Éclair au ChocolatLong choux pastry filled with dark chocolate pastry cream and topped with glossy chocolate fondant, crisp-shelled and creamy within.
