I stopped by during a layover in Amsterdam after having an absolutely terrible morning, and all I…read morewanted was to get my hands on a freshly baked stroopwafel. Unfortunately, the shop was technically closed while they were cleaning and restocking, but after I explained my situation to the owner, she kindly allowed me to make a purchase. I originally wanted freshly baked stroopwafels, but they weren't available that early, so I settled for the prepackaged ones that came in an adorable music box. I haven't actually tried them yet, so I can't comment on the taste, but I genuinely appreciated the owner's kindness and willingness to accommodate me despite the shop being closed. It was a small gesture that meant a lot after the morning I'd had.

The combination was simple but the quality of the ingredients are top notch.

There were cannolis, cream puffs, cookies, donuts, cakes, macarons and there were also sandwiches and pizza type breads. We bought a cream puff with Bavian cream, a chocolate covered cream puff with the standard cream filing and a chocolate covered croissant. Everyone was happy with their purchases and I was especially happy with my cream puff with the Bavian cream. The surrounding cake was light and airy and the cream was delicious; not quite whipped cream (like American version) but like a combination of whipped cream and vanilla custard. The filling was very light and the entire pastry did not leave any heavy feeling at all. The 2 chocolate pastries were consumed without complaints. The chocolate croissant I noticed, was completely dipped in chocolate rather than a croissant that has chocolate inside. This bakery lives up to its c'est magnifique name!

It's a very small shop on a very busy street so it would be easy enough to miss. That would be a mistake. You'll want to ask for the Eberhardjes cookies. If there's such a thing as an official cookie of Amsterdam, these are the ones. Named for the late mayor, they're delicious and perfect to bring home because of the "XXX" baked into them, the symbol of the city. The label on the cookies translates to "Take good care of our city and each other." Sweet. [Review 12091 overall, 1874 of 2019.]
