Description
Which one first? Sunday morning in a pâtisserie in Lyon, and the glass case is a jewelry shop of sugar: glossy éclairs, raspberry tartelettes, mille-feuilles striped in chocolate, macarons in every pastel. A little boy presses his nose to the glass while his father tries, valiantly, to hurry him. The baker’s daughter arranges a tray just for them and slides it across the counter like a work of art.
This porcelain tray brings that mouthwatering moment home, each miniature pastry painted with fine, delicious detail. It is a delightful accent for a kitchen, a dining room hutch or a café-themed shelf. Give it to a baker, a pastry chef, a cooking-school graduate, a foodie friend or anyone who still dreams about that patisserie on the corner in Paris. It is all of the joy and none of the calories. Set beside a stand mixer or a stack of well-loved cookbooks, it hints at the treats that come out of the kitchen on weekends and keeps the spirit of the French pâtisserie close at hand.
