As we use no preservatives, it is recommended to eat our pastries within 3 to 4 days, as long as they are kept in the fridge.
- Macarons:
just take them out of the fridge before eating them... - Cannelés (or canelés):
it is better to eat them the day you buy them, but you can keep them 3 to 4 days in the fridge as well.
It is however better to make them re-heat in a pre-heated oven during 6 to 8 minutes at 160°C and let them cool down: they will regain their crispiness as on day 1 😉
The sea-salted caramel can be kept in the fridge up to 2 months
We use only Premium ingredients:
- French Dairy products (President): milk, cream, butter
- Belgian chocolate (Callebaut): Dark Chocolate, Ruby Chocolate, White Chocolate

All our macarons are Gluten Free.
We can also, on special orders and with a minimum of quantities, bake Gluten-Free madeleines.
Contact us for arrangement.
Please do note, even if we do our best, for instance by baking the Gluten Free madeleines at first, in the early morning, before anything else, so there is no mix with other type of flour, our madeleines are more for Gluten Intolerant people as we have no separate kitchen.
All our pastries are handcrafted with passion in our pastry shop inside our professional licensed kitchen
Licence Number: SW14A77N000
This ensures respecting high standards of hygiene.
Yes!
Just proceed as if it was for you, then on the Checkout page, you'll be able to check the box "ship to a different address" and simply fill in the information of the recipient.
You can even add a note on the checkout page and we can print and attach the card to the package.
Be sure the person can be reached at the selected delivery date/time slot as our pastries are fresh and need to be kept in the fridge (avoid asking to let them in the corridor or in the garden 😉 )

TEAM BUILDING
We propose both ways.
- In Premises team-building sessions:<br />
you can contact us to arrange the date and menu you would like to work on.<br />We can even adapt to vegetarian or vegan menus, and of course can take into account allergies. - Virtual sessions:<br />We can adapt and either use Zoom or your own webconferencing system.<br />We can also send pre-packed ingredients to your teammates at their homes so they only have to connect at the right day, right time and enjoy!
You contact us so we can arrange for the date and time.
You can choose different time-slots, from 1.30 hours to 3 hours.
Depending on your teammates tastes, allergies or diets, and the length of the session you want, we propose a menu your teammates will be able to reproduce along with our Chef.
We can also organize a fun contest and the winner team will get a prize!
All the attendees will receive a nice apron, as long as they are based in Singapore.
To spend an enjoyable moment altogether, it is best to be up to 10 people.
We can easily handle this number, even during this COVID19 period as we have different workstations so we can respect social distance!
Of course, with scan and temperature screening at the entrance...
