Bonnes patisseries et viennoiseries. C'est dommage que les vendeuses s'offusquent et vous snobent si on préfère choisir en leur indiquant quelle patisserie on veut. Ridicule... mais tellement français. read more

Jean-luc Pele is a wonderful chocolate, macaron, and bread shop located in Cannes. One of the few in the area, the selection is fantastic. The quality and freshness are stellar, my wife and I brought macarons home that we purchased Friday morning, they weren't sampled until approx 36 hours later surviving the trip from Cannes to NJ. My daughter whom we bought them for was ecstatic. I noticed many locals purchasing treats and bread so I believe my wife and I chose the right store. The service was great and the gentleman serving us was very helpful. read more

Brioche sucre is probably my most favorite of favorite sweet treats. As it so happened it started to rain so we ducked into this shop and had their version (along with a croissant). I believe they had a lemon flavored brioche sucre that day. It was absolutely excellent... as good as it gets. read more

Um..hey yelp how do I give this place 6 stars? Because it's THAT good. Incredible creme brule, literally my family had to order a second one because it was THAT freaking good. Wow, we were left speechless, it was chilled, flavorful, and made your palate sizzle. The macarons were obviously also on point. The staff is so friendly and helpful in making crucial dessert decisions! read more

I had the most amazing macarons here! They had a plate out with samples and after tasting strawberry, vanilla and pistachio I was hooked. I ended up buying 5 macarons: dark chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, Nutella, and the recommend salted caramel (said to be the most popular). When I got back to my hotel I had a bite of each for a snack and before I knew it had eaten all five! They're addictive and amazingly delicious. I paid about €8 for them and wish I had chosen more flavors! They also have tons of other desserts to choose from. I highly recommend stopping here when you're in Cannes! read more

WOW I could of stayed there forever and just ate the products were incredible and so was the taste of everything. The set up of the store made me hungry everything looked amazing. I would of gained 10 pounds. One of the best candy bakeries I've ever seen read more

I never liked macarons back in the US as the meringue was very sugary and it would always get stuck on the teeth. I never understood what the big hype was either. When I walked by this shop full of macarons and chocolate, I figured I might as well try "real" French macarons to see what it's supposed to taste like so I walked in and bought 4 to try. I tried Pistachio, Chocolate, Coffee, and Passionfruit. My husband and I took a bite of each and shared. WOW, those were so good that I wanted to try all the other flavors! Now, I know what "real" macarons taste like! They were soft, not too sweet and the perfect sizes. Nice and small. That's all you really need. Not like the huge Bouchon Bakery ones. I wanted to take some home, but with their packagings, I knew it wouldn't make it back without getting crushed so I decided to just remember them in good memory. read more

Jean-Luc Pelé - Chocolate, Passionfruit, Coffee, and Pistachio - Bakeries Near Me - Cannes, 06

My second favorite bakery in Cannes! The macaroons are almost unparalleled and the price will make you happier. You get a better price than laduree and it's almost as good. They also have more offerings than solely macaroons so you can get many more desserts. From chocolate treats to creamy bites, everything looks and tastes amazing! They have many locations in Cannes and within a few blocks they have multiple so it's great to have the convenience as you walk through everywhere including le suquet. The locations vary slightly where the larger ones have a small seating area. The smaller ones just have the longer counter you walk through that makes you want to pick everything before you get to the cashier. Everything inside this shop is so well made and presented. I find myself thinking "I want that and that and at least two of those." read more

Very nice place for a quick bite. Very reasonable prices and tasty food. I found this place walking by without looking at any reviews. Lots of people eating there so I took a chance. It is just outside Galleries La Fayette read more

So unfortunately, this place didn't live up to the expectations for me. To give it the credit it deserves, the display was great, and the chocolates did seem quite amazing. However, we tried their desserts and were underwhelmed. My friend got the creme brulee which was more custardy than expected. I got the coffee chocolate cake which was way too buttery and lacked the expected taste of coffee. read more

I have a huge sweet tooth so once I decided to accompany J to Cannes for his conference, my first order of business was to search out the best patisseries in town. I kicked off my search with macarons at Jean-Luc Pele. They had the normal flavours I love such as lemon and coconut, as well as a few newcomers (for me at least) such as Speculoos, praline, and mint chocolate. I ordered a variety and threw in a couple chocolate desserts as well. At first bite, I was disappointed. The Speculoos had nice flavour but it was soooo chewy. Next was the chocolate and mint which had slightly better texture but not the best flavour. Luckily, the rest of the box (and no I didn't eat it all in one sitting) was FANTASTIC. The praline macaron was heaven and the lemon, vanilla and coconut came close to the perfection that is Cocoa Atelier in Dublin. My chocolate desserts were filled with a rich mousse and extremely tasty. Highly recommend! read more

Omg...this place just beckons you to come in. I came in to grab a coffee and a croissant for my fiance but wanted to order everything. The colors and displays are so attractive. The staff is very polite and nice even though I thought they were going to be snobby. The prices are reasonable, and I think if I lived here this might be my sweet tooth spot! read more

Came 2 days in a row it was so good. But exerted self control and skipped the 3rd day. The pistachio and strawberry macaroons were great and the apple tart was a massive portion and shareable.. and really good. I will be back again before this trip is over! read more

This artisan, beautifully branded gourmet shop is an exercise in sensory pleasure. The displays are gorgeous, with every pastry a perfect piece of art. Every detail is painstakingly uniform, from the curlicues and flourishes in the design of the tarts, cremes, cakes, and other forms of sweet deliciousness to the ingredients inside. High-end ingredients and sometimes whimsical combinations create flavor profiles that will blow your mind with richness and decadence, once you get past the feeling of sacrilege when you dig in. The macarons are perfect -- airy, light, and filled with luscious flavors in a smooth, cloudlike texture. The creme brulee, with real vanilla bean and served in a ceramic-type of bowl (which you can keep, if you like) is exquisite, with a creamy feel that fills your mouth with the scent of the vanilla. There's also this amazing chocolate-on-chocolate treat with a creme brulee center, studded with crispy chocolate spheres and glazed with dark chocolate that will make your head explode from sheer pleasure. The truffle gift boxes are incredibly artful as well. Delicately molded into intricate scrollwork and lovely shapes, the containers are actually crafted of chocolate. In fact, it's so well-made, it warrants a second and third glance to really be sure that it's edible! Love, love, love this place. It's shops/mini-chains like these that help me understand better where Sucre in New Orleans got its inspiration. P.S. The prices are high, but won't break the bank. In fact, I think it's pretty fair for the artisan quality and labor so obviously put into every treat. It only costs a euro or two more than other local spots, and comes out to maybe (if even, depending on what you get) $2 more than high-end dessert l'ateliers in NYC. read more

This bakery looks magnificent. There are rows and rows of macarons, cakes, chocolates, you name it they have it. There is even a chocolate fountain and a chocolate grotto cafe that you can eat your sweets in. However, the macarons and cakes aren't nearly as good as Laduree which is why I'm giving it three stars. My favorite was the fois gras macaron with fig. read more

Beautiful shop, beautiful looking desserts and macarons... but the macarons were just ok. Not bad, but not nearly as good as Laduree or La Maison. Everyone has their own rating system for macarons however so it may very well be a 5 star macaron for someone else, but for me- their macarons lacked a flavor burst and the center was hard, borderline stale. The reason for the 1 star however is not just for the meh-level desserts, but for the service. The people working here seemed snobby. No thank you! There are a ton of other options in Cannes for expensive desserts! My recommendation? Stop by and check out the shops beautiful windows, but save your euro for an establishment that is more appreciative of its customers. read more

My favorite macaroon place in all of the world. The staff is attentive and sweet, and the macaroons are AMAZING. I have never had a better macaroon. The oversized Nutella macaroon...ah, perfection! A bit expensive, but they should be for such high quality and delicious macaroons. On my birthday during the Film Festival, they gave me a "Joyeux Anniversaire!" chocolate on the house. And, they always have the most intriguing chocolate treats...like boxes made of chocolate filled with chocolate. Amazing. Love Jean-Luc Pele! read more

Used to be excellent but grew too fast and lost in quality , then sold to an "industrial " group and though it kept the name Jean Luc Pele, the products are just supermarket material, with fancy prices . Won't recommend read more

An adorable shop in the heart of the shopping area. We stopped in and ordered a sampling of both sweet and savory macaroon flavors to take back to our cruise ship as a treat. They have a large selection to choose from. The server was very nice and patient as we made our selections. Each one was very good, though personally I preferred the savory flavors - the sweet flavors were just a tad too sweet for me. The Fois Gras was definitely the one that stood out the most to me, it was buttery with a hint of sweetness. Be sure to visit if you are in the area and hankering for a sweet treat! read more

My first time here was for the Galette des Rois (chocolate and frangipane in a puff pastry to die for- and the fève was gilded in gold) in January. Since I have been back for the macarons, and I found them as good as Ladurée. I highly recommend! read more

This place is an impressive, classic, french patisserie. Well worth a trip by to check it out. The expressos are good also.

I had the most unique macarons here. I had a Creme Brulee. Champagne, Mojito, & Nutella macaron. They were amazing! I love this place. The rest of their pastries looked delicious and like works of art. read more

Loved this artisian bakery....the macarons are to die for, seriously right up there with Laduree who makes the best caramel with salt, but these are VERY close. Presentation was fab and the place is adorable. Look for their restaurant, also in Cannes. read more

Poor customer service experience. What a pity as it spoiled a potentially nice food experience. I specifically requested for the Quiche Lorraine to be heated. They gave the impression they heated it, then gave it to me cold. It seemed intentional, which was disappointing. read more
