The story
Cedric Grolet’s Saint-Tropez patisserie on Rue des Feniers has become a destination for those who judge a pastry by its cover. The shop’s viral, meticulously crafted fruit-inspired treats—Mango, Peanut, Strawberry, 75 Popcorn, and the classic Strawberry Tart—are undeniable visual feats, drawing crowds as much for the spectacle as for the flavor. Make no mistake: the artistry translates to taste. As Jack’s Dining Room noted while sampling the menu, the pastries are “undeniably delicious.”
Yet the experience is defined less by traditional value and more by high-profile presentation and a premium price point. This is a spot for indulgence, for the quintessential, if expensive, Saint-Tropez pastry moment. Come for the show, savor the bite, and accept the cost.

Reviewers rave about the mango, calling it a stunning, artistic triumph. The overall vibe is one of pure, edible elegance.
“I'm trying to decide if it tastes more like a mango or more like a pastry. I'm kind of just in a mental pretzel. The crunch was delicious. And it's just so beautiful. But was it worth €20 for the tiny little mango bite? That I'm not sure.”

Dishes mentioned
Mango
I'm trying to decide if it tastes more like a mango or more like a pastry. I'm kind of just in a mental pretzel. The crunch was delicious. And it's just so beautiful. But was it worth €20 for the tiny little mango bite? That I'm not sure.
Peanut
Oh my god. There's some sort of graham cracker cookie dough going on inside. That is absolutely insane.
Strawberry
Kind of tastes like a sweet strawberry soup dumpling, if that makes sense. But for $20, you could buy like five boxes of real strawberries. They would taste pretty similar.
75 Popcorn
The others had my interest. This one has my curiosity. Really does kind of have that popcorn flavor, but with way more caramel and like a vanilla filling.
Strawberry Tart
Now, brace yourselves. This is €45. I'm not quite following. This is delicious. And the further you get in here, the more strawberry vanilla cream you have. Is it worth €45? Like that. Again, that's the question with Cedric Grolet. You're kind of coming here for the window show and how beautiful everything looks. Although this is really delicious.
