Update. July 28, 2023
Patiently waited for my dear friend Kathleen to open her Bakery at the new place.
I was overwhelmed by how stunning she decorated her new location. God is so good.
This is an authentic French bakery. It is stunning and the ambiance is delightful.
The bakery goods are as scrumptious as ever.
Y’all go visit.
Don’t miss this wonderful French bakery
The building itself has quite a diverse history, having been around since the early 1940s. The interior has a very eclectic decorative style. It’s like stepping into a European boutique with a bakery attached to it.
We tried several specialty croissants and biscottis. From the cold case, we had a petite Key Lime cake and a slice of French berry cake. Everything was terrific. We can’t wait to go back and try some other offerings. Enjoy.
Upon walking in, it honestly felt like they had been there for years. Whoever designed the inside, really put some back work into it. There are antiques and collectibles everywhere. They even have a rental space for parties.
When we got there, there was a line of about six people for the bakery. It went very fast, or I was very distracted by all the things around me anyway.
My purchase consisted of a Nutella pecan roll (it may have been walnuts, but I forgot to write this review the day I did it), a caramel crunch cookie, and a chocolate croissant.
The Croissant was gone before I could heat it up. It was absolutely perfect, even at room temperature. The cookie was so sweet and delicious. I did have half when I got home and half later that evening.
Now, that Nutella roll? At first, I took a bite at room temperature. And I was really not a fan of the texture. To resolve this, I cut it in half and microwaved for about 15 seconds. Ya’ll, that did the trick. It was fluffy and soft and warm and just perfect.
I will be coming back here.
NOTE: it is my understanding that the business will be closing at the end of August for two months while the owners visit France. They’ll be reopening at the end of October. So get it now, while you can.
I used to make my own croissants and baguettes; having tasted those made by Phillipe, I no longer do. We entertain, including some formidable dinner parties, on a very regular basis, and Kathleen and Phillipe ALWAYS supply some aspect of the meals. For the special occasions, there are always the flavored croissant (chocolate; almond cream, etc) and Bavarian Cream Eclairs, but for HOLIDAYS there are things like a decadent peach glazed pie that Phillipe did this year for Thanksgiving (also in apple) and the masterpiece, his Bûche De Noël – the best I’ve ever had.
Funny story – there’s a post here on Google Maps from a woman who complained about an “off-taste” in one of Phillipe’s croissants her husband brought home; I’ll bet dollars to doughnuts that he brought home ALMOND CREAM croissants, and expecting a plain butter croissant, her taste buds were shocked… This is why we tasted with our mouths, not our expectations! 🙂 I’ve been tasting great food for over seventy years, and the work these two do at A Wish or Two Ago is of the highest caliber.
