*Espresso 31
Decorated with silky espresso ganache, this cute little dome consisted of layers of sponge cake and milk chocolate mousse. When you cut the cake, some chocolate balls will ooze out of the center, giving it a crunchy texture. I bought a 4’ whole espresso cake ($24 only wow!) from them last time, and I could easily finish two slices in one sitting. Strongly recommend buying birthday cakes from them, it will certainly impress your guests.
*Fraisier
A classic French cake combining buttery sponge layers and butter cream. It was loaded with a hearty amount of fresh strawberries. Utterly decadent with its light and fluffy sponge cakes.
*Brownie
Not a fan of brownie, but it was quite fudge and infused with the richness of chocolate flavors.
Happy that there’s a French bakery nearby. I tried their Palmier and passion fruit flan this afternoon. The palmier was buttery, flaky, coated with crispy caramel - a really great pastry. For me, the passion fruit flan custard was a bit more like jelly instead of creamy texture. Both of them were tasty and the waitresses were friendly.
I have visited this cafe six times in the past two years and I’ve always been either too early or too late for the canelles. I was never the greatest fan of the dessert so I didn’t mind missing it but I enjoyed the quest nonetheless.
Today as I passed by, I stopped dead in my tracks. I couldn’t believe they had rows and rows of canelles at 3pm!
And now I understand why they sell out! These little darlings are complex and delightful. Sugary and crispy on the outside whilst soft and pudding-like on the inside- its an absolute dream (and a challenging feat indeed).
I am grateful and honored to have experienced this wonderful delight.
A true treat indeed 🔥
Egg and cheese croissant was really good. Everything else looked very pretty. Will have to come back to try the sweets
A small tiny cup of orange juice cost $6, and they also need wider selections.
Great store, the food was incredible. I really enjoyed the breakfast sandwiches. The store was super clean and extremely busy. Its a really popular store in Long Island City. I recommend going there for breakfast when you can.
I must say that because it was a little busy and fast going, some of the servers behind the counter didn’t really have the best attitude or welcoming gesture. She rushed me and my sister as we were trying to order and decide. We asked a few questions, and they the server seemed annoyed, probably had a bad day. Other than that, my experience there was pretty good. If you’re looking for parking, I’d search the surrounding blocks, I’m not entire sure what it’ll be like around the store.
Cute place with lots of options. The staff is nice and the bakery items are displayed nicely. There is indoor and outdoor seating here and it’s very clean. The pastries are served cold but some of them come in cute containers (they also have coffee). I would recommend going here to get a good variety of pastries.
Popped over on the ferry --- got fresh baguettes. Choc croissant and pear tart. My tastebuds were in heaven. Friendly service. Great selection. Perfect textures and tastes !!! Enthusiastic 5 stars. Didn't get the king cake - but was excited to know it is available during carnivale season.
We are extremely into French pastries recently and our friends who live in LIC recommended us to try Cannelle. We visited on a Sunday around 5pm and it was too late so there were not many options left.
We only got a croissant and a chocolate croissant. Both croissants were delicious, the layer of puff pastries was crispy and soft inside. However, there wasn’t a lot of chocolate filling inside, which was disappointing. We might give it a second try at an earlier time shortly.
Bought “Peach Tart” and “Raspberry almond croissant “ just delicious no words! Highly recommended!!! And good customer service.
