Must-try bakeries and desserts in Paris: A must-try for a sweet trip you won't want to miss.

Paris is a paradise for bread and desserts.

In addition to classics like baguettes, croissants, and macarons, there are many unique dessert spots in Paris. While famous spots like Angelina Mont Blanc and Pierre Hermé Macarons are well-known, this time I'll focus on restaurants I've personally tried and highly recommend.

Paris The charm of bread

When it comes to Paris, the first thing that comes to mind is authentic bread like baguettes and croissants. While there are countless bakeries throughout the city, here are some must-visit spots.

Le Grenier à Pain

Winner of the Best Baguette in Paris award in 2010 and 2015, this bakery is particularly known for its delicious baguettes, baguette sandwiches, and Campagne bread. Croissants and pain au chocolat are also popular items. While the atmosphere is reminiscent of a neighborhood bakery, the bread is of the highest quality.

Utopie

This place has delicious baguettes and sandwiches. The black baguette is delicious and goes perfectly with butter. Of course, the croissants and pain au chocolat are also delicious!

But the real must-have here is the sesame éclair. Thanks to its nutty flavor, the sweetness isn't overwhelming and it finishes cleanly. If you could only eat one, it would be the sesame éclair!

Paris, the dessert paradise

Paris is a city with a thriving dessert culture. From traditional macarons to innovative éclairs and cakes, you can savor a wide variety of desserts. Here, we introduce some must-visit dessert restaurants.

Bontemps

Seasonal desserts are popular. Strawberry desserts are popular in spring, while Mont Blanc is popular in fall and winter. The cream cake is particularly soft and delicious, and is perfect for enjoying tea time on the garden-like terrace.

Ritz Paris Le Comptoir

As befitting a hotel patisserie, it boasts high quality. Signature dishes include Entremet and Ritz au lait caramel, and for a lighter treat, the moist madeleines alone are equally satisfying.

Pâtisserie Gilles Marchal

Located in Montmartre, this dessert spot specializes in madeleines and canelés. The menu also features modern interpretations of classic desserts.

Cyril Lignac (La Pâtisserie Cyril Lignac)

The signature Equinox is a must-try, a unique blend of vanilla bourbon cream, caramel, and speculum. Lemon tart, quince aman, and chocolate are also popular.

Hugo & Victor

While famous for its chocolate, the autumn marron mille-feuille and winter galettes are especially delicious. A variety of pastries and cakes are also recommended.
