Pastries make my world go round

in #photography7 years ago (edited)


It’s hard to stay productive when it’s 95°F outside. I casually joked with the lover and told him that we should jump around to different locations and take advantage of the cool indoor setting. I thought we were going to hit up some comic book stores but instead I was tempted with the idea of consuming sweets. We only made it to this one stop before rushing home for a midday nap.

@kommienezuspadt had heard great things about Patisserie 46 and suggested that we give it a try. It’s strange how we never came to visit this place sooner because we’ve driven by on many occasions. 

There were a few patrons seated outside in direct sunlight and we struggled to understand the logic behind their choice. 

I was in awe once we stepped inside. Everything was aesthetically pleasing. I love the bread display and how the desserts look like jewelry on display.

So much to choose from! Where do we start??

Take a wild guess on which yummy dessert I picked for myself. 

I knew that I’d have to come back even before I had a taste of the food here.

The details and the glossy glazes win me over each and every time. 

@kommienezuspadt got himself a bacon egg and cheese croissant with a coffee.

I opted for a creamy cold carrot soup.

It suited my tastebuds perfectly.

I also got this lovely rose bud tea and you guessed it, the strawberry basil eclair.

Fresh strawberries & rhubarb, strawberry compote, basil mascarpone cream & micro basil in pâte à choux. Can you image the taste? 


This had to be the best eclair that I’ve had to date! I’m already planning to bring my mother, sister-in-law and @lonniedi to this lovely establishment! Personally, I think it’s best to bring a large group to any patisserie because then each person can pick a different dessert to split! 😜

Thanks for stopping by! 🦊

I love the eclair. Yummyyyy!

It was sooo good!!

I bet it was!

If that's heaven, I want you to take me there please! Everything, really everything looks delicious even the atmosphere of the pastry looks comfortable, nice, very nice photos! Tell me you tried, were delicious desserts?

I’d definitely take you there if I could! I was only able to taste the one dessert but I’m ready for more!

that looks yummy!!! :)

I almost died because it was so good!!

Hello!
Mmm ... how delicious looks ..
I like sweets!
Excellent post!

Oh heavens! This looks so breathtakingly beautiful and yummy!

More wonderful food porn, thanks. I'm trying to stay good to no carbs, so getting to 'eat' these virtually does help. The beauty of it. The coffee with the flaky croissant! I can taste and smell it. It's so funny how our visual stimuli can trigger the sense of taste and smell!

It looks like you had a good day out, but 90s! No thank you. Cool but windy where I am, which I like (minus the wind). The plants always need staking.

Food porn is such a guilty pleasure of mine! I still see a trend of people watching other people livestream as they eat. Weird but I kinda get it. They must be living through that individual.

It’s funny because I’m unable to cut carbs so I’ll cut meat out of my diet instead!! 😆

I was wondering why you only made it through one before rushing home for a nap, but I understand now XD

I still wouldn't have had a nap because I can't nap, but there would have definitely been major slothing going on

Sometimes I secretly pretend that I’m asleep in the afternoon so that the boys leave me alone. #notsorry

Oh yum! That one caught my eye as well. Strawberries and basil are pretty amazing together. Basil mascarpone?! 😱 That sounds divine!

And yes, definitely best to either go with a group, or pick up a few things on your way to a little get-together... because one dessert is great, but getting to taste lots of them is so much better! 😊

The problem I have after visiting a patisserie, is that I then want to go home and try making things myself... lol

I couldn’t imagine it so I was blown away by how delicious the mascarpone was!

That’s awesome that you’re fired up to recreate the dishes at home. I could only dream. If we lived closer to one another then I’d beg you to let me be your taste tester!

Ah, I'm drooling all over again. haha

Yes, that would be awesome! One big problem I have when I'm experimenting with baking, is that hubby and I end up eating it. HAHA! Good thing I do a lot of walking...
