For take-away cakes to eat in the Jardin Tulieires, you can swing past this exquisite patisserie, by world-renowned pastry chef Cédric Grolet, head pastry chef at Alain Ducasse. The pastry boutique is devoted to gateaux, from traditional French Madeleines and Paris-Brest to his Instafamous sculptured fruits which truly are pieces of edible art. For children you cannot go past the Rubik’s cube.

Recommended: Honestly, anything. But the sculptured fruit are his thing.

Address: 6 rue de Castiglione, 75001

(around the corner from Le Meurice Hotel)
