I always loved this pastry place called Normandies a long time ago because of their fresh, high quality pastries. They ended up permanently closing their doors. I am a HUGE pastry fan and critic, so I was very unhappy that I couldn’t find another place that perfect. My husband knew this and searched for highly rated pastry places for us to try out on my birthday. Fillings and Emulsions was the highest rated by far so he chose to try it. I was blown AWAY! The owner happens to be there when we arrived, I told him my sad story about my other favorite place, and my endless search for a new favorite. He was so friendly and personable, explaining how he got into the business, and his Cuban roots. He even went to the next level and gave my son, my husband, and myself a free macaron to try. (So dang sweet!) Did you know that the owner won 2 food network shows? I didn’t know that at the time but I totally understood why! These desserts/pastries/Cuban food were not only fresh, unique, and made with quality ingredients, but they were absolutely gorgeous! The pricing is really quite reasonable with the pastries ranging between about $2-$5 each. The cute apple dessert you see in one of my pictures has an almond component that reminded me of my favorite dessert at Normandies.🥲 That was many years ago, and I have been there at least for every birthday, and every time we happen to drive by since.❤️ If you like a lot of diversity, appreciate different texture components, and complex but perfectly balanced treats, look no further! I also need to mention one other thing, one of the “treats” the owner won a food network competition for was his Cuban meat pies. I am not much of a meat pie fan, but I wanted to try it since it was such a big deal. There is a reason they helped him win, they are completely surrounded in a flaky pastry that has a hint of toasted sugar on it. The meat is spiced beautifully too. I also posted a picture of the meat pie so you could see. If you haven’t noticed already, I am a 110% fan of this place and it’s owner. Thank you so much for bringing your genius to salt lake, I will be in again soon!

Ever since we saw Aldaberto on the Food Networks baking challenge we knew we had to try his creations!!! We just happen to make a trip out to Salt Lake City and went here to grab some desserts!!!!! OUT OF THIS WORLD AMAZINGLY FLAVORFUL!!!! We got a strawberry cheesecake, chocolate cake, chocolate pots de creme and a big box of macaroons!! You have to try these desserts!!! The strawberry cheesecake has real strawberry flavoring, not just a strawberry extract! The chocolate pots de creme is so smooth and rich with a lovely raspberry filling on top that just takes the dessert to a whole nother level!!! The macaroons are so light and beautiful in color bursting with flavor!!! The store is tucked in next to another business but you must try these desserts!!! We missed the owner just leaving as we came in so I hope we can catch him tomorrow so my 8 year old and I can meet him!! Hands down must try!!!! Not yo me tion the staff is beyond helpful, patient, and so friendly!!!! Customer service is awesome!!!

Since moving to Salt Lake I was looking for an amazing dessert place and this place definitely takes the cake. Litterally some of the most amazing desserts I've had and I'm excited to try even more. They are high quality delicious tasting desserts that are guaranteed to make you feeling happy and sweet inside. We ordered the strawberry cheesecake, the lemon raspberry tart and the stuffed croissants. The strawberry cheesecake was Soo good. It was creamy and very rich in flavor. You could taste how the freshness in every bit of cake. The lemon raspberry tart was also very tasty. Way more tart than I expected, but was definitely very tasty. Stuffed croissants that I've had in the past are either usually over powered and too strongly flavored or not flavored at all but fillings and Emoultions seems to have perfected it. Incredibly flaky and delicious with very rich and deep flavors. Definitely will get again.

Tried this bakery for the first time today, but it will not be my last. I got four items to share at a party, the dulce de leche churro cruffin, the kouing amann, the strawberry tres leche roll, and the peanut butter scone. The cruffin was good, the cream inside is Rich and smooth, it would be hard to eat the whole thing and not get overwhelmed, but the three bites I had were great. The scone was dark and dense and the peanut butter did not take over like I thought it might. I liked it a lot, best with a glass of milk though. The amann was my favorite. The subtle sweetness, the crisp texture and buttery pastry...yes please. The strawberry roll though was the favorite... everything you love about tres leches but taken up a notch. The server was super nice and everything looked amazing. Can't wait to go back.

This review is based solely on their macarons and our experience at the store. The woman who helped us could have been more welcoming and friendly. It cost $ 23.21 for a dozen because they were having a “super sale” (25% off) otherwise, it would have been $30.95. We loved that the packaging looked posh. Here are the flavors we tried: Grapefruit mango Passion pineapple Pistachio dark cherry Marshmallow blackberry Strawberry lemon Blue raspberry Vanilla salted caramel The two flavors that we thought were exceptional, pistachio dark cherry and blue raspberry. The cherry complemented the pistachio and the raspberry flavor was strong in a good way. Some of the other flavors were hardly discernible and other flavor combinations should have gone well together, but they lacked balance.

If there is one thing I’m passionate about it’s passion fruit desserts. This place makes some of the best tasting desserts. My favorites are the Key Lime and Passion Fruit Cheesecakes. Their Guava cake is a close second, or third as the case may be. I could do without the little cookie balls around the perimeter. Aside from that these desserts are perfect. I think they have tried to make their macrons stand out from other bakeries by putting some jelly in the center and I would prefer it without. I’m sure that’s just a matter of personal preference and, if we are being honest, it hasn’t stopped me from eating them. It feels a little on the pricey side but you get what you pay for and these are definitely worth it.
