I came to Bouchėe confections on June 19th. A friend and I wanted to try out a local place in Reno that sold desserts and coffee. A quick Yelp search popped up this place and we were excited to check it out because the photos online look beautiful.
I will say that the pictures did live up to their aesthetic beauty. Unfortunately because they were so good I forgot to take my own pictures.
I purchased the strawberry pistachio cake and a cafe au lait.
The coffee itself was impeccable when it came to the flavors that came through from the coffee beans. It was ground fresh, brewed, and then the organic milk used was superb. It was one of the smoothest coffees I've had in a very long time.
Also the strawberry pistachio cake was so soft, light, and airy. You could taste every distinct flavor of the cake itself and it was so scrumptious.

If I'm ever in the area I would love to go back and do the high tea that they have during the week. I am definitely going to ask for the bunny teapot in my...

Read moreThis place has the most sublime desserts! I took my Mother and daughter here for a sunday morning treat and we were not disappointed. They serve hand crafted desserts, espresso coffees, tea and chocolates. I ordered a mocha coffee and it was made with real chocolate from their melted chocolate reservoir. It was the most decadent drink I have ever had. We ordered 3 desserts to share. They are very rich and delicious. We had the strawberry pistachio cake, the chocolate raspberry cake and the triple chocolate cake. My favorite was the Strawberry Pistachio, but honestly they were all amazing. The employee working was so sweet and helpful. This is now on our list of special places in Reno. I'll cant wait for the holidays to gift their beautiful handmade chocolates. They...
