Sucre Llc

The first thing you notice about Sucre is the decor: so cute and sweet that your teeth will ache. Unlike some other reviewers, I adore it. The pastels, the patterns, the cute boxes with bows. It makes me instantly happy. And true, it's not very New Orleans-ish, definitely more of an East Coast looking place. But no matter.

The gelato flavors are great, and you can try as many as you like before settling on one. If you get a pastry or some other dessert from the display case, you can get it on a platter with a scoop of gelato. And they decorate the platter with colorful swirls of chocolate and other flavors so it's an entire impressive presentation.

The mouse desserts are delicious, the mini macaroons are great, the cupcakes are divine. I would go out of the way just for one of their lattes- huge and delicious and damn near perfect. You can shop online at http://www.shopsucre.com and have things delivered. If only I could order one of their lattes from Philadelphia...

Sucre is a darling pastry shop on Magazine Street which specializes in French Macaroons. These are not the coconut macaroons you are probably used to, rather airy meringue cookie sandwiches with a flavored filling. They are wonderfully delicious and hard to find outside of Europe. A box of 8 macaroons runs $12 - but you will enjoy every penny's worth.
