Darlings, let me spill the tea on this new French fantasy that just pirouetted into Stanford Shopping Center! Anton's Patisserie had me clutching my pearls with their gorgeous display case alone - serving VISUAL DESSERT before I even took a bite!
I strutted in for their Instagram-famous Mille crepe cakes, honey. We snatched up what was SUPPOSED to be the matcha and Hokkaido milk crepe slices with their little 2-for-$20 special (normally $12 each - a queen must budget!). But when I got home and opened the box? The matcha had GHOSTED me and chocolate showed up instead! The AUDACITY! That mix-up is snatching one full star right off this review, thank you very much.
Now, the Hokkaido milk crepe was LAYERED like my personality - complex, sweet, and utterly fabulous. The chocolate one that crashed my party? Still delicious, but NOT what this diva ordered! The texture was right, the flavor was rich, but it wasn't giving the green goddess energy I was craving.
Will I death drop back into Anton's? Probably, because the quality is there, but I'll be checking my bag before I trot out the door next time! This queen doesn't appreciate surprises unless they come with diamonds...
Read moreAbsolute Perfection! The Best Crepe Cake I've Ever HadI finally splurged on the Anton Hokkaido Milk Mille Crepe Cake, and honestly, it exceeded every expectation. This isn't just dessert; it's a culinary experience.
From the moment I opened the box, the presentation was stunning--the layers are incredibly neat and uniform. But the taste is where this cake truly shines.
The crepes themselves are paper-thin and delicate. They aren't gummy or heavy like some others I've tried. The star, however, is the Hokkaido Milk pastry cream. It is unbelievably rich yet light, airy, and silky smooth. The distinct flavor of Hokkaido milk makes it sweet enough to feel decadent but so perfectly balanced that it's never cloying or overwhelming. It quite literally melts in your mouth with every bite.
It's clear that Anton uses high-quality ingredients and incredible craftsmanship. If you are looking for a show-stopping, elegant, and genuinely delicious dessert for a special occasion (or just for yourself!), this is a must-try. I highly, highly recommend it and will absolutely be ordering...
Read moreWe had Anton Pâtisserie cakes at our gala and they were such a hit! Not only were they absolutely beautiful (the kind of cakes you stop to take a picture of before eating), but the taste was just as amazing. Light, fluffy, and not too sweet — everyone kept going back for seconds.
What I love most is that their cakes fit any occasion… classy enough for a gala, but honestly I’d order them for birthdays or just a special treat at home too. They really bring that perfect balance of aesthetic and flavor....
