| - Maison Christian Faure has been my sweet spots for desserts, and now I just realized I haven't left any reviews yet!
This place is like a gem in Montreal, especially when you are craving for very well-made boutique style desserts in Montreal. The place reminds me as if I were somewhere in cake boutique in Paris. All sorts of small cakes are varied by seasons according to fruits' availability, and every dessert that I ever tried there never disappointed me. I liked a lot of their fruit covered desserts such as strawberry millefeuille, tropical fruit tarts. Their chocolates were great as well.
Space is not perfect for taking time there (sitting for a while for chat and brunch). There are some seats but it is quite narrow space, and not pleasant for relaxing. I recommend visiting Old Montreal location for this. This place is more suitable for a quick pick up.
Not just for a bunch, or small desserts, I recommend buying some whole cakes, as a housewarming gift when you are visiting friends. The price range will be around $40-50 for a whole cake, which you might think a bit expensive at first glance, but it is worth paying that much money. The taste is good and the presentation of cake is phenomenal.
Tip.
Check website in advance to get an idea which variety is available now - https://maisonchristianfaure.ca/en/product-category/pastry-shop/cakes-2/ (still some cakes might have been sold out)
Good to know.
Rather than buying little pieces, it's more economical buying a whole cake, (you might know already) taxes will not be rated for a whole cake, which is good for the large quantity.
