Pâtisserie Stohrer

If you're in Paris, don’t miss a trip to Stohrer in the second arrondissement. Established in 1730 by King Louis XV's pastry chef, Nicolas Stohrer, the city's oldest pâtisserie is a must-visit for anyone with a taste for history and dessert in equal measure.

With an unchanged facade and cosy interior, the sole shopfront of this Parisian institution retains its historic charm on the busting Rue Montorgueil, a pedestrian market street popular with locals and tourists. Enter the store, and you’ll face a tough choice – will it be a classic éclair, a zesty tarte au citron*, or Nicolas’ famous creation, the booze-soaked Baba au rhum*?

Or, in the spirit of research, pourquoi pas les trois*? Visit the website to whet your appetite.
