Pastry chef Thierry Schmitt has a knack for croquembouche, crafting the precious puff pastry balls (filled with vanilla, chocolate, Grand Marnier or raspberry pastry cream) into baskets, carriages and more. There’s also a spectacular range of single-serving cakes (also available in larger sizes): rum baba is a light rum-soaked brioche filled with whipped cream and topped with fresh berries; bacarra is a brilliant green pistachio sponge cake layered with caramel cream and peaches. Petits fours are a must-have for tea. On the savoury side, there are delicious baguette sandwiches.
