    Molten chocolate cake, pear tart, and caramel eclairs. So delicious!
    Maryann K.

    I love this place! I recently spent 9 days in Paris and visited 4 times. It was such a nice treat to buy a few gluten free sweet treats for the day and come back again in a few days. If you like eclairs, skip the traditional chocolate. The caramel eclair is absolutely divine. Even my husband who eats gluten was pleased with the gluten free version. My other favorite was the molten chocolate cake. So delicious! The pear cake was an honorable mention. Also, I bought their gluten free baguettes a few times. Gluten free bread will never be as delicious as regular, but they do a pretty good job. It does need some butter or jam to combat the dryness that gluten free breads tend to have. I was really thrilled to have baguettes to eat! Go early because they often sell out of the favorites by the end of the day. This is a can't miss bakery for those can't consume gluten.

    This place is no longer in business... stopped by and the store front says for rent. So sad :(

    Selection of pastries

    OMG! All the pastries! All gluten free for me :-) Tried to visit Helmut Newcake last year but they were shut down from 1st Jan through to the 14th I think. Got here on 31st Dec - last day open before their holiday shutdown again so was lucky this time. This time I bought eclairs, Paris brest plus brioche for breakfast. I had already grabbed bread at Chambelland, not realising I could also get freshly baked bread here too. Brioche was lovely and a decent sized loaf which was also enjoyed by my non gf friend. The cakes are amazing - fabulous pastries and the eclairs are delicious. We tried two kinds - chocolate and caramel and the pastry was super light and airy. The Paris brest was also fab and we tried a rhubarb meringue with pastry base too. Everything was amazing! I'll totally be back on my next visit. Staff were friendly and helpful. I was around €24 for four cakes and the brioche (€7 each loaf). Might sound a bit steep as gf isn't cheap in Paris but it is totally worth it!

    Madam coffe, hazelnut Eclair, and Royal Choco praline.

    THIS is the place for gluten free baked goods in Paris. GF croissants, eclairs, and so much more. This is a GF paradise for anyone with a sweet tooth! They also have lunch items too.

    Delicious tiered pastry filled with chocolate mouse!

    Wonderful gluten free bakery! I went hoping to get a croissant, but they were out until Thursday the following week. Woah! I still enjoyed an amazing tiered puff pastry dessert filled with chocolate mouse. They had a variety of eclairs, cakes, and breads and were very friendly despite my ignorance of French. This place was really a high point of my trip to Paris. (Also, convenient location close-ish to the Louvre.)

    5 stars for Pierre Hermè. That specific Space is closed and a new boutique will open soon next…read moredoor. There other locations.

    Pierre Hermé If you…read moreknow Pierre Hermé from social media and all the viral videos, then this review needs no introduction. But if you haven't, this is a strong contender for worthy macarons in Paris and at a convenient location across the street from Ladurée. Located inside L'Occitane in the most gorgeous floor space ever, you will find Pierre Hermé at the center of it all. They have an impressive array of flavors that were much more unique than other patisseries. I definitely asked for a few recommendations as well since I tend to order the same thing (pistachio, raspberry, lemon, etc.) The workers were very kind. They indulged my request to converse in French and corrected me in a respectful and endearing way (I know some people get upset at this idea but I personally prefer it.) I had ordered a dozen macarons but truthfully would've ordered the entire lot if I wasn't alone and especially if I wasn't already taking a ton of sweets back for my flight home. I am a Ladurée purist and what I can say is that Pierre Hermé definitely had the best and most unique flavors compared to the two. The prices are fairly comparable and the coffrets are just as tasteful. Both are strong contenders and worthy of your money. I certainly will be returning and look forward to trying the rest of their selection. (15/50--2025)
