Paris bakery, treats, chocolates

Close to the Louvre

Stuffed sandwiches, (ham Brie fig), looks delicious

Jacques Genin is hands down the best chocolate in Paris (maybe the world). His shops in Le Marias and St Germain feel more like jewelry stores, and each or his creations are gems. You'll find dark and light chocolates with refined flavors, Fruit gels and caramels. Just do yourself a favor and try them.

This is our favorite bakery in Paris. They were rated #1 croissant in Paris for 2022. We're often in this boulangerie since Gare du Nord is across the street and that's our way home. Colleen often has a Palmier as a treat and their Paris Brest is scrumptious.

Grab a pastry and a coffee in this place. Their macarons are expensive, but legendary!

This is a Parisian institution for amazing pastries or lunch. We tried their Mont Blanc (Chestnuts) and their Delices aux Framboises which were amazing. The setting is also delightful.

Amazing food court and stunning patisserie inside Le Bon Marché department store. It's a bit pricey but the food is excellent. Whether you're looking for a nibble for lunch or some of the best pastries you'll ever try, this is the place. There's a small park across the street to have a small picnic.

Highly recommended for their macarons

Best know for their world renowned chocolate but also have fantastic macarons

Gem Patisserie is a hidden treasure of Paris. It is #2 on our 2022 Best Macarons in Paris list. This is a perfect little nook to enjoy a cup of coffee or tea with some of the best macarons you've ever tried. I especially like the siracha salted carmel. But Gem (the owner) creates macarons with amazing exotic flavors from her Philipino heritage. There's nothing else like this in Paris.

Roy Chocolatier is a tiny store with big flavor. Both their chocolates and macarons are memorable. And their staff is friendly, welcoming and speak English. This place is in our top 10 best Macarons in Paris.

This bakery is located at the end of rue Mouffetard in the Latin quarter. They have amazing pastries & macarons.

They have a Champagne-filled chocolate that is very good, Colleen loves it. This chocolate shop is originally from the region of Lyon. They have all kinds of assorted delicious chocolates.

Technically a gelato, these frozen treats are both delicious and beautiful. You'll find them all around Paris, served like sculpted roses in a waffle cone. They have been a favorite of our kids for a long, long time.

Known for its vanilla ice cream covered in crushed pistachio, this is a must if you are near the Pompidou Center near Les Halles. Add whipped cream on top to make this complete.

This is one of the best Italian gelatos (ice cream) in Paris. They have several locations in Paris but this one on rue de Montorgeuil is great. Hazelnut & Coconut is my go-to flavors here.

In the heart of Le Marais, just a couple of blocks from the BHV, this ice cream shop offers high-quality ice cream & frozen treats. This ice cream is what happens when a master chef decides to open an ice cream shop. Just delish!

This shop is owned by a world-champion pastry chef so to say that the ice cream is amazing is an understatement. The Caramel Croquant Parisien is to die for. This is a must-stop for ice cream lovers.

This is one ofour favorite bakeries in Paris. We particularly love their Kouign-amann bakery treat. It's OMG delicious! Buy one and then walk to the Seine river banks for a little sweet treat break.

This small bakery is 100% Gluten-free & vegetarian. Great for gluten-free sweet treats.

This is probably our favorite spot for vegetarian, gluten-free, keto, paleo food Their Buddha, mac no cheese and Andy's salad are amazing.

You can either eat in or take out a crêpe. Try the Banana Nutella with whipped cream....that is all!!

Giant croissants.
