Exploring the Upper East Side 🌟
This charming little shop only offers authentic French pastries: 🥇 Canelé: Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, with a subtle rum flavor that’s so addictive. One bite and you’re hooked! 🍯 🎨 Rainbow Macarons: Not only are they beautiful, but they’re also less sweet and not cloying. Plus, they have limited-edition flavors for every holiday! 🌈 🎂 Charlotte Cake: Like a fairytale princess wearing a crown, this cake is light, soft, and melts in your mouth. 🎂 This time, I tried the pistachio financier and gluten-free chocolate cookies, both of which were absolutely delicious 😋. The best desserts are often the ones that aren’t overly sweet. 🍽️ Stepping into the shop feels like walking into Southern France: white walls, wooden tables, vintage murals, a second-floor staircase, and floor-to-ceiling windows with sunlight streaming in. Everything is just perfectly gentle and cozy. 🌿 It’s not sweetness piled high with sugar; it’s a light and delightful taste that takes you back to the streets of Europe. 📦 They also offer delivery, and the Canelé is perfect for taking on a plane or gifting to friends. 🎁 📍 Address: 1340 Lexington Ave, NYC (near 89th Street) 🕰️ Operating Hours: Monday to Friday 7:30–19:00 | Opens at 8:00 on weekends ☕️ In addition to pastries, they offer quiche, coffee, and light meals that you can enjoy in the shop or take away. #NYCDesserts #UpperEastSideAdventures 🌟
