I heard about patisserie By Simon from a visitor on Facebook claiming she had the best croissant. I…read morealways wanted to see what was different about French pastries versus American. Well I can say that these indeed are the best Croissants I have ever experienced!! The outsides are very crispy while the insides are almost like the consistency of a pop over and they're just the yummiest butteriest thing I've ever had. It's to die for good so check it out. If you can she also has other pastries that are very unusual and incredibly good her creams are so soft. And not overly sweet, which is nice. She's located in Livermore, California and very easy to find.

The employees welcomed me in and when they heard it was my first visit made a few recommendations. I brought home a Kouign Amann, Pluot Crumble Danish and a Chocolate Almond Croissant. Everything was delicious but my favorite was the Kouign Amann. I loved the crispy carmelized crust, flaky layers and slight soft and chewy inside. So good and I can't wait to visit again and try more items!

I particularly love any cookie from her with tahini or chai but all of them are excellent, especially if you love a snickerdoodle. I recently tried a savory rice krispy treat from her....and immediately needed another. It just worked! I would never think of something like that being yummy but it was. Also doesn't hurt that Allie is as sweet as her creations. Sauer Kitchen is amazing!!

Allie is a creative baker who seems to derive inspiration from the world's spice collection. I've…read moretried several of her cookie creations and definitely have a couple of favorites. I like how she shows her creative process on social media. For me, that social media presence drew me in to wanting to try her cookies even more because I watched videos of the process and I could see her baking is a labor of love. My favorite is the Moroccan spice, but today I tried the lemon thyme and I think that might be a new contender for my favorite. I would highly recommend her small business because she displays dedication to her craft and offers a unique product for customers.

They have many boxes and bags to be able to get a nice gift for friends or family. You take the tray at the front of the store and use their tongs to grab what you want.

We got there around 6:30pm, so a lot of items were gone. The employee said to come early, before 12pm, to get the most popular items.

Later we discovered she also made strawberry, and we knew right away that chocolate marble and strawberry (with fresh strawberries!) would be the perfect combo for our big day. The cake itself was flawless--a beautifully made 3-tier design with a light, delicious texture. The smooth buttercream frosting had just the right amount of sweetness, perfectly balancing the rich chocolate swirls and fresh, fruity strawberry layers. So many of our guests raved about it, and our bridesmaid (the true dessert connoisseur of the group) polished off all the leftover slices by the next day! On top of the incredible flavor and craftsmanship, Bev's passion and personal story for baking are so inspiring, and the value for what she creates is unbeatable. If you want a cake that's stunning, memorable, and made with so much heart, Bev is the one to go to.

So it was Meadowlark who brought me here. I ordered the sweet latte. The coffee's nutty flavor comes through well in this drink. Although it was a "sweet" latte. It actually wasn't too sweet. Overall I was very pleased with the balance and flavor of this drink. This is probably my favorite latte in Livermore so far. I would come back in a heartbeat. Great, chill vibes here. A fair number of tables and seats inside. Tables also outside. Parking is a little tricky. Not too many spaces in their lot. A gem in Livermore.

And i have visited at least four time. All during night time. The place is always very quiet and mute, service is dismissible. The employees that I have interacted with never smile. Which is a shame, most panaderias, per say, in San Jose, are usually very positive experiences. Not here. It's like they don't want to be there. Or maybe they're just too tired, nobody likes night shifts in food service. I get it. The pricing for this pan dulce is a tad bit more pricey than most places Ive visited. Even then, I wont take away that it is good quality. I've probably had at least 1/2 their types of pan they offer. Which why I have not stopped dropping by here and there, also, my son loves the dulce cuernitos.
