Posted by mbmaddox in Pastry Shops and tagged with , , , , , ,

Stopping by Fritz’s Pasty I noticed that they had one of my favorite items. Now I have to warn you that this is a favorite for a lot of people. Most of the time I stop by they’ve sold out of the Almond Croissants.

The Almond Croissant and a cup of French Roast coffee is the perfect “pick me up” for the mid afternoon drag.

St. Tropez Cake – A Cake with Style

The brioche is an extremely versatile platform for producing some of the most interesting and delicious bake goods. I discovered the St. Tropez cake recently at Fritz Pastry.

This is a brioche that has been sliced into two halves. Sandwiched between the two halves you find vanilla custard and butter cream.  If you are at Fritz Pastry you have to try this.

For anyone following this blog they must be thinking that I have cupcake on the brain. As it turns out this morning I went to Fritz Pastry and decided that I wanted something very basic for breakfast.

Scanning the baker’s rack I knew I found my love of the day. The basic butter croissant. Well there’s actually nothing basic about this. Warm it ever so slightly and it melts in your mouth.
