Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

Discover the sweet flavors of Paris on a guided tasting tour. Try a variety of local pastries and desserts and discover the world of French Patisserie in its capital

Stop 2

Croissant, pain au chocolat, or pain aux raisins! These golden delights are a must-taste during your trip to Paris. Buttery, flaky, and melt-in-the-mouth, they pair perfectly with a morning coffee or an afternoon treat. In the eternal French debate, some regions fiercely insist on saying “chocolatine” instead of “pain au chocolat” , a controversy that can spark livelier arguments than politics!

Chocolate Tasting: Once reserved for royal courts, chocolate now wins the hearts of all. A tasting reveals its full aromatic richness and the finesse of master chocolatiers. An unmissable experience!

Éclair: éclairs are a timeless highlight of every pastry display and one of the most famous examples of French pastry making. Filled with flavoured smooth cream and topped with a glossy glaze, éclairs delight both with elegance and indulgence. Its name means “lightning” in French, supposedly because people eat them so fast they vanish in a flash!

Stop 5

Madeleine: For every sweet tooth: delicately buttery, soft and golden, lightly sweet or infused with hints of lemon, vanilla. Enjoy your madeleine warm from the oven.

Stop 6

Macarons: These colorful little gems feature an almond shell filled by a flavored ganache. They have become a true symbol of French elegance in sweets. Legend has it that Catherine de’ Medici brought them to France in the 16th century proving once and for all that a sweet tooth can change the course of history.

Stop 7

Crêpes: Deliciously sweet, soft and warm, simply sweetened or filled with chocolate or jam. Enjoy your crêpe with a breathtaking view of the Sacré-Coeur.
