De taartjes zijn kunstwerken, zowel qua uiterlijk als smaak.

Une explosion de saveur dans un dessert gourmand, raffiné et surtout sans trop de sucre. De la grande pâtisserie et chocolaterie artisanale. Nous vous conseillons aussi les petits biscuits à emporter, notamment des excellents spéculos ou des barres chocolat. Nous avons goûté chocolat pistache rien à voir avec l’horrible chocolat de Dubai à la mode !
