They're known for the flower shapes that they create with the gelato, which is so fun to watch them make! I got a small with 4 flavors - pistachio, coffee, speculoos, and mint. The mint was really not the best - it stuck out and was a bit artificial tasting in my opinion. The coffee was by far the best as it was so rich in flavor, not too sweet, and perfectly creamy. I liked the speculoos and pistachio too, but they weren't anything that outstanding. I've had better pistachios before, and speculoos wasn't as flavorful as I hoped for. They have a lot more items on the menu too like crepes, but I just wanted the gelato this time. There's also areas inside for you to stand at and eat, but no seating.

We ordered the signature with the macaron on top and you can pick two flavors for your cone. The ice cream was shaped like a beautiful flower and very instagram worthy. As we were admiring the beautiful cone, it did not take long before it started to melt, so we quickly devoured this gorgeous cone. Lots of flavors to choose from and I would definitely return to try other flavors.

You'd be staring at the window display for fifteen minutes before you even set foot in the shop. It's just too cute. I didn't get a chance to browse the store. I just went in for a scoop of ice cream in a cone. There was no line as it was a slow week in April but I can imagine this place would be crowded in the Summer. There are so many flavors of Berthillon ice cream to choose from. Cafe Whisky, Menthe Fraiche, Cappucino, Grand Marnier, and Framboise a la Rose are just a few to name. I chose Praline Amaretto. It was creamy and had that hint of booze in it. For a scoop it costs about 2.50 Euro, a small price to pay for one of Paris' sweet treats. ***** L'Ile Flottante est l'un des nombreux sites sur l'île Saint-Louis où vous pouvez obtenir des glaces Berthillon. Vous pouvez également obtenir des miniatures, jouets, bonbons et chocolat. Vous seriez à regarder la vitrine pendant quinze minutes avant même de mettre les pieds dans le magasin. Il est juste trop mignon. Je n'ai pas eu la chance de parcourir le magasin. Je suis juste allé dans une boule de crème glacée dans un cône. Il n'y avait pas de ligne car c'était une semaine calme en Avril mais je ne peux imaginer que ce lieu serait bondé en été. Il ya tant de saveurs de crème glacée Berthillon à choisir. Café Whisky, Menthe Fraiche, Cappucino, Grand Marnier, et Framboise à la Rose sont que quelques-uns de nommer. J'ai choisi Praline Amaretto. Il était crémeux et a eu ce soupçon d'alcool dedans. Pour un scoop Il en coûte environ 2,50 euro, un petit prix à payer pour l'une des friandises de Paris.

Service was fast and friendly (yes, it was FAST and friendly, dessert/gelato/treat shops are some of those places where service is expedient in Paris unless of course you opted for a sit-down service like at Le Loir dans la théière, Laduree or Angelina's then you are asking for punishment lol - just kidding, it's worth the wait :P) The place is clean, bright and inviting and like I said, it's convenient especially if you are someone like me, who likes to be on the move, snacking while exploring the city.

My first memories of Fauchon weren't of the shop with all the lovely pastries, but of the insane…read moregift baskets my dad would receive from either his employer or colleagues around the holidays in the 90s. I wanted nothing to do with the jars of foie gras or champagne, but I used one of the trunks to store craft supplies. 25+ years later and it still stores craft supplies. So, of course on my last trip back to Paris I had to finally stop back in as an adult who can appreciate things that little kid me would have just said "oh, neat" about. Spoiler alert: I still don't want anything to do with foie gras or champagne. This visit coincided with a belated birthday adventure after having a mini meltdown about getting old and missing home. Fauchon is the quintessential picture of Parisian chic. The store is elegantly simple, with clean lines and bold color. The cases have a huge variety of pastries and indulgent treats. And what they have to offer is so beautiful and so meticulous that you start to wonder how the tart or éclair that caught your eye isn't unaffordable. Yes, it's pricy for pastries in France when you consider Carrefour sells éclairs for like one Euro (and that cheap ass éclair is somehow better than 99% of éclairs in the US). When you compare it to the "gourmet" pastry scene in the US the prices aren't insane though. Would I make this my regular stop for pastries? No, but for special occasions or if you're visiting and want a beautiful experience this is absolutely worth the small indulgence. We selected an éclair with some bold graphics printed on it, two different macarons, a lemon tart (tarte aux citron), a chocolate moussey cakey piece of art, a slice of pâté en croûte, and some hot teas. Because of the artistic elements it was a less traditional texture for the éclair but the flavor was delicate and pleasant. The macarons were perfect, which I'm sure they always will be, and it's probably one of the reasons they do well as an edible souvenir. P.S. Americans, do NOT call them macaroons, those are completely different. The tart was the right amount of sour and sweet with great texture. I opted out of the chocolate and the pâté but included them in the photos so you can be jealous. The commentary on those can be summarized with, "OMG amazing." Oh, Paris, tu me manques. Je dois retourner tout de suite!

My dad ordered waffles and they were out so he ordered the French toast and didn't like it so he sent it back and they didn't take it off the bill!
