Boston's new French dessert đ«đ·đ° No dessert head can refuse!
đ° SALT Patisserie: Newtonâs Dessert HavenâWhere Chocolate and Fruit Steal the Show This Newton Centre spot is a sweet toothâs dream. From showstopping tiramisu to tropical passion fruit tarts, itâs clear they care about quality, flavor, and that âwowâ factor. Even the breads are solidâno filler here. đ The Must-Try Desserts Tiramisu: âïž Cloud-like perfection. The cream is rich but light, never cloying, with a balanced coffee kick that avoids bitterness. The star? The thin, crisp chocolate shell housing itâshatteringly good, with deep cocoa notes that elevate the whole dish. Itâs so good, it makes Whole Foodsâ recent tiramisu (sadly, now overly sweet, mushy, and claggy) taste like a sad imitation. Save your moneyâskip the grocery store and come here. Passion Fruit Tart: đ„ Life-changing. A burst of bright, tangy passion fruit that transports you to a Puerto Rican farm stand (trust me). The tartâs almond crust is buttery and slightly sweet, balancing the fruitâs acidity, while a layer of creamy passion fruit mousse ties it all together. The chocolate passion fruit garnish? A cute, flavorful finish that seals the deal. đ Solid Bites (No Fuss) Pain Aux Raisin: đ„ A classic done right. Flaky, buttery pastry wrapped around sweet raisins and a ribbon of vanilla custard. Itâs not revolutionary, but itâs fresh, moist, and satisfyingâperfect with coffee. Core Bread: đœ Corn-forward and hearty, with a slightly grainy texture thatâs more ârusticâ than refined. Itâs earthy, not overly sweet, and pairs well with both sweet and savory spreads. đ« The Chocolate (Optional) They sell individual chocolatesâcrisp outer shells with creamy fillingsâbut if youâre already ordering the tiramisu (which uses similar high-quality chocolate), you can skip these. Theyâre good, but redundant. âš Why It Shines Balance: No dessert is too sweet, too rich, or too âartificial.â Flavors feel fresh and intentionalâpassion fruit tastes like passion fruit, chocolate tastes like chocolate. Presentation: The chocolate shell on the tiramisu and the neat tart design make these desserts Instagram-worthy and delicious (a rare combo). Budget Score: 4/5. Desserts are pricier than a chain, but the quality justifies it. SALT Patisserie is a must-visit for anyone with a sweet tooth. Whether youâre craving coffee-soaked tiramisu or a tropical fruit tart, this Newton spot deliversâno exceptions. đ SALT Patisserie 792 Beacon St, Newton Centre, MA 02459 #BostonDesserts #NewtonEats #PatisserieLove
