The cookies that Londoners love are finally coming to Paris with the opening of Crème, the store of pastry chef Damien Leroux, in the Marais!

Crème cookies have been giving the whole of London a run for its money since the store opened in Soho in 2019. From now on, no need to jump on the Eurostar to enjoy these little nuggets of sweetness, since Crème is coming to Paris, more precisely in the Marais!

Excellent news, then, for aficionados of these artisanal, generous and devilishly greedy cookies, created by pastry chef Damien Leroux, who has worked in the brigades of multi-starred chef Alain Ducasse. To get the perfect recipe, it took the French chef no less than two years of work and experimentation.

It is finally fromsimple ingredients, by combining his French know-how with inspirations taken here and there, during trips to the United States, that Damien Leroux finally managed to develop his regressive cookies, melting inside and crunchy outside, and to conquer the hearts and palates of Londoners, at the same time!

Plain cookie and milk chocolate chunks, chocolate cookie and dark chocolate chunks, miso cookie and white chocolate chunks, and finally banana cookie and dark chocolate chunks; Crème's menu is deliberately short, and the cookies, baked throughout the day, are served warm to the gourmands, so that the dough stays soft and the chocolate melts. But we've been told that a fifth recipe will be added to the menu exclusively for the Parisian boutique!

What else does Crème do? A homemade custard-based ice cream, infused with Frosties cereals and garnished with cookie pieces, and drinks with Anglo-Saxon accents (re)created: hot chocolate with marshmallows, matcha latte, mocha and iced drinks for sunny days, such as this gourmet Iced Banana tossed Latte (5.5€) in partnership with the Brulerie de Belleville, which supplies its best beans!
