When we got near we realised it was cake, this makes me happy. We bought a selection of 'merveilleux' which are like little meringues delicately filled. The service was exceptional with the staff working efficiently and in such a friendly manner to serve people quickly. The merveilleux weren't overly sweet which is amazing considering they were like mini meringues! They were beautiful with amazing flavour and I wish I had bought more to bring home, no matter how bashed they would have ended up. Exquisitive and a must visit if you are in the area of the Wazemmes Market.

On top of scrumptious looking pastries (cakes, cupcakes, cookies, brownies...) as well as savory (which I did not try), this place offers a variety of interesting teas. I had the "Bushwick" tea and enjoyed every drop. As a tourist I was happy to find out one of the owners (Melanie) speaks English and was very helpful! Bonus, free wifi! It is also very well located. Overall, it's a very cute family run business and I will be back before I leave!
