7 bakeries in Paris, editor-picked for bakeries open sunday. Bakeries baking on sundays. All bakeries in Paris.
Claire Damon's Des Gâteaux et du Pain in Paris's 15e is the pastry-architect shop where every tart is signed off as a numbered edition, on display.
TipClosed Monday. The Mont-Blanc is autumn-only; the strawberry tart anchors the summer carte.
Cédric Grolet Opéra in Paris is the chef's lemon-fruit-and-flowers museum: every cake a sculpted trompe-l'œil fruit, priced at €18 to €25 a piece.
TipQueue starts at 11:30 for the 12:00 opening; book online to skip it for the citron tart.
Fabrice le Bourdat's Blé Sucré in Paris's 12e is the bakery David Lebovitz once nominated for the city's best madeleine. At 7 Rue Antoine Vollon.
TipClosed Monday. Buy six madeleines in a paper bag; the orange-glazed ones travel best.
Maison Aleph in Paris is Myriam Sabet's Aleppine pastry counter on Rue de la Verrerie: kataifi nests filled to order, dusted with ground pistachio.
TipThe nids de pistache are the dish; the rose-water éclair is the second pick.
Stohrer in Paris is the city's oldest patisserie, founded in 1730 by Nicolas Stohrer who served Marie Leszczyńska at Versailles. Open daily 07:30-20:30.
TipThe original puits d'amour and the baba travel well. The whipped-cream cake is best in shop.
Boulangerie BO in Paris's 12e is Olivier Haustraete's listed-monument boulangerie by Marché d'Aligre, baking organic baguette tradition and Tokyo-honed.
TipThe cherry-blossom Mont Blanc in spring is the seasonal pick; the baguette tradition is the everyday order.
Liberté Pâtisserie Boulangerie in Paris's 10e is Benoît Castel's open-kitchen counter where the bakery floor doubles as the eat-in dining room from 09:00.
TipThe Paris-Brest individual size is €6; the cake-by-the-slice in the back room runs half that price.
