Description

Rebecca Tison opened the pastry shop in 2019, expanding the selection to include French and American-inspired sweets like fruit tarts, flan, and cinnamon rolls. The pastries are baked with a distinct French butter taste, keeping the sweetness in check. Visitors note that the cream puffs maintain a balanced ratio of filling to choux pastry, offering alternative flavors like raspberry and creme brûlée. The shop operates as a welcoming neighborhood spot, designed to evoke the simple excitement of stopping in for a small treat.
