Often associated with Anglo-Saxon culture, muffins have conquered the most prominent Parisian pastry shops and bakeries. Moist, delicious, and easy to carry, they appeal to both lovers of simple cakes and those curious to try new flavors.
In Paris, they come in a wide variety of shapes and flavors. Of course, there are the classic blueberry, chocolate, walnut, and banana muffins, sometimes topped with crumble or other gourmet toppings. Some places also offer vegan and gluten-freeoptions, as well as healthier ingredients such as wholemeal flour, coconut sugar, vegetable oil, and dried fruit.
Some coffee shops go even further by baking them like real little pastries. Get ready for molten centers, fruity fillings, homemade icings, and more. The muffin then becomes a dessert in its own right, carefully crafted and refined. Generous, adaptable to all tastes, easy to carry, the muffin is eaten with your fingers! Here are the best placesto eat them in Paris!
