Blé Sucré Review - 12th Arr. - Paris - The Infatuation
"There’s something floral about Blé Sucré’s croissant, from the honeyed sweetness to the countless layers of bronzed pastry piled like frilly-edged petticoats. It looks delicate, but take a bite, and you’ll be rewarded with a pleasantly dense, almost bready chew, and an overwhelmingly buttery flavor. Don’t skip the pain au chocolat, the reason many Parisians traverse the city to line up at this pocket-sized bakery near Bastille. The dark, almost smoky chocolate melts pleasantly on the tongue, and the bitterness contrasts nicely with the sweetness of the dough. Even if you get there at the end of the day, the chocolate won’t have sapped the moisture from the pastry—basically witchcraft in the world of viennoiseries." - Emily Monaco
