Paris Baguette remains one of my favorite go-to spots for delicious pastries and coffee, but I've…read moredefinitely noticed a jump in their prices recently. I completely understand why costs are rising--ingredients, labor, and overhead aren't getting any cheaper for local businesses, so an increase makes sense. However, with the current pricing, stopping by for a routine treat or grabbing a few items for the family is becoming noticeably less affordable for us. The quality and taste are still consistent, but it's shifted from a casual, regular stop to more of a rare, occasional splurge. I still love what they offer, but I really hope prices stabilize so it stays accessible for regular visits.

Went here today for a meeting around 3 PM with a group of ladies, and we were seated near the…read moreentrance. Between all of us, we ordered more than a dozen drinks along with plenty of pastries. As the afternoon went on, it became unbearably hot inside the café. We asked the staff if they could lower the temperature, but were told that administration had taken the remote control and that employees did not have access to adjust the air conditioning. It was a very unusual explanation, and honestly, I wasn't sure whether it was true or if they simply wanted us to leave. Unfortunately, the uncomfortable temperature made it difficult to enjoy our time there, especially during a meeting. Based on this experience, I don't plan on returning anytime soon.

My wife and son are dessert snobs. Both have been to Paris and say France has the best pastries. But wait, they just came back from Alpine, and what did they say???? DELICIOUS!! They were smiling from ear to ear! They bought a carrot cake and an assortment of fresh and tasty pastries. And they even let me have a bite. It was so good! Sooooo, yes, try them. We've all had crappy deserts before. Move up to the big leagues and give Alpine a try!

Oh I hate to do this because they have done cakes for me in the past, but the call I just got off…read moreof was SUPER unpleasant. I called in today to see if they could decorate a faux cake for me. Not only was she rude, but she told me she would charge me AS MUCH AS SHE WOULD for a real cake. You mean to tell me it would cost me $100 plus to decorate a piece of Styrofoam? And then, when I told her the shape of the Styrofoam, she flat out said no. As if the shape of the Styrofoam changes the action? And I'm not a baker, at least not a professional one, but something feels off about what feels like the refusal to help me. And it's not like I am looking for free service, I'm willing to pay, but I'm not willing to pay cake prices for icing on Styrofoam. Saying no, as a business is OK, I'm all for it. But customer service needs a serious rebranding. I have never had a good in person/over the phone experience. Their food speaks for itself, but the customer service skills really takes away the value of a local business that has been around for years. I hope whoever I spoke on the phone with has a better day

The best patisserie delivered to you in the bay area, bar none! Ahh, I had a vague idea that I'd…read moreenjoy the selections offered from Cynthia, who started Ciel Patisserie shortly after the pandemic arose. Despite the troubles of 2020, so many wonderful businesses such as this one were created, so I can't say that I'm too disappointed with that year. Currently, contactless deliveries are being rotated throughout the bay area, and online ordering is very easy. You can check the website every Sunday night for their new weekly schedule. I didn't expect this would be love at first bite, as I'm not much of a pastry person. Seeing that Cynthia is a pastry chef with extensive high caliber career history including experience at 3 star Michelin restaurants, everything started clicking into place. I ordered the financier collection (8 piece), tea madeleine collection (9 piece), almond romias, and tea & fruit sables. They were all so delicious and made with such precision that I'd order them all again next round! They also came with guide inserts and storage instructions. My delivery had a noontime window. The financiers were very soft with balanced flavors. The tea madeleines were huge and puffed up with accompanying fillings, delicate flavors, and a wheat-like bread - just the right, light amount of sweetness for an Asian palate, which helps the tea essence shine. The almond romias had a subtle crisp, and were super thin and delicate, with a hint of buttery almond flavor - very addictive set of cookie bites. The tea & fruit sables were essentially fancy, buttery shortbread cookies in a fun assortment of flavors. Every single bite is absolutely worth the calories and price! Keep in mind the financiers and madeleines are best within a couple of days, and cookies should optimally be stored for a week. I noticed that they did taste best on the first day, and every day afterwards the baked goods got just a little less crisp, so be ready! Cynthia was very communicative and informative with my questions during the ordering and delivery process. These French pastry with East Asian flavor fusions are perfect for a decadent treat or a delectable gift!
