The ultimate goal? A p\u00e2tisserie or boulangerie. While the city\u2019s famous for its baked goods, it\u2019s important to avoid the tourist traps. Luckily, the editorial team at Time Out Paris has done the hard work of finding the cr\u00e8me de la cr\u00e8me for you.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the lowdown on the best patisseries in the city that will have you swooning over every bite.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Tapisserie<\/strong><br \/>\nWhere organic flours and local ingredients come together in the hands of talented chefs, Tapisserie offers rustic yet refined pastries. Try their vanilla flan or apple tart\u2014they&#8217;re simple, delicious, and made with love.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.timeout.com\/images\/106026232\/750\/422\/image.jpg\" alt=\"Tapisserie\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Les Copains du Faubourg<\/strong><br \/>\nLocated near Faidherbe metro station, this boulangerie is a favorite of Alain Ducasse. G\u00e9rald Auvrez, a former Dan Barber apprentice, grinds his own wheat, creating loaves with a perfect balance of crispy crust and moist crumb. Don\u2019t miss his rye puff pastry\u2014an unexpected yet delightful treat.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.timeout.com\/images\/106097882\/750\/422\/image.jpg\" alt=\"Les Copains du Faubourg\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Tomo<\/strong><br \/>\nThis Japanese tea room has taken Paris by storm with its dorayaki (pancakes with azuki bean paste) and other delicacies. Former Aida pastry chefs Romain Gaia and Murata Takanori bring an Asian twist to the Parisian pastry scene with mochi, daifuku, and even baba soaked in Japanese whisky.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.timeout.com\/images\/105149089\/750\/422\/image.jpg\" alt=\"Tomo\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Shinya Pain<\/strong><br \/>\nKnown for his mastery of sourdough, Shinya Inagaki\u2019s small shop near P\u00e8re Lachaise requires patience\u2014both in terms of timing (his hours are restrictive) and queues. But once you get your hands on his loaves, with their delicate crusts and subtle sourdough notes, you\u2019ll agree it\u2019s worth the wait.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.timeout.com\/images\/106021111\/750\/422\/image.jpg\" alt=\"Shinya Pain\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>5. P\u00e2tisserie Yann Couvreur Marais<\/strong><br \/>\nWith only eight desserts on offer at any time, Yann Couvreur\u2019s Marais location is minimalist yet spectacular. The Madagascan vanilla millefeuille, raspberry pavlova, and apricot-coriander cheesecake will have you coming back for more.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.timeout.com\/images\/105851895\/750\/422\/image.jpg\" alt=\"P\u00e2tisserie Yann Couvreur Marais\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Le Bricheton<\/strong><br \/>\nWhile not the most convenient for those outside the 20th arrondissement, Le Bricheton is a pilgrimage worth making. Maxime Bussy\u2019s use of ancient, organic flours results in low-gluten, beautifully textured breads.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.timeout.com\/images\/105413693\/750\/422\/image.jpg\" alt=\"Le Bricheton\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>7. Des G\u00e2teaux et du Pain<\/strong><br \/>\nClaire Damon, a p\u00e2tissi\u00e8re who\u2019s worked at Fauchon and Ladur\u00e9e, creates delicate, fruity desserts at this Left Bank institution. Their rhubarb-grapefruit tartelettes, cherry Mont-Blanc, and pistachio millefeuille are crowd favorites.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.timeout.com\/images\/105317781\/750\/422\/image.jpg\" alt=\"Des G\u00e2teaux et du Pain\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>8. Sain Boulangerie<\/strong><br \/>\nFor breads made with sourdough and ancient flours, head to Sain Boulangerie. Chef Anthony Courteille\u2019s unique creations\u2014like parsley-hazelnut bread or parsnip-turmeric loaf\u2014are a treat. Plus, all viennoiseries here are made with sourdough, which is rare in Paris.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.timeout.com\/images\/106037325\/750\/422\/image.jpg\" alt=\"Sain Boulangerie\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>9. Ginko<\/strong><br \/>\nA short walk from Buttes-Chaumont, Ginko\u2019s Franco-Japanese cakes are the star of the show. Try the Mount Fuji tart with chestnuts, cranberries, and whipped cream, or the Paris-Tokyo hazelnut choux pastry with roasted soybean powder.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.timeout.com\/images\/105988951\/750\/422\/image.jpg\" alt=\"Ginko\" title=\"\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>10. \u00c9l\u00e9ments<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you\u2019re after crusty, flavorful sourdough, \u00c9l\u00e9ments Boulangerie is the place to go.
