Reviews of interest
- Caroline Mignot (2011) “je dirais que c’est le genre de petites choses parfaites à dévorer sur le moment, en sortant de la boutique, tandis que la crème sort de tous les côtés..”
- Paris Pâtisseries (2011) “…it’s a cute shop in a fun little neighborhood. However . . . the work isn’t where it could be. I purchased three rose-framboise, a violette, a caramel, a pistache and a vanille; they were all ok – better than average…”
- Dorie Greenspan (2011) “…the spare new boutique is not much bigger than the puffs in the display case — and the puffs are petit. Very. They’re also deeply flavorful — the creams are velvety, luxurious, really, and full-flavored.”

Tried Popelini the other day and we must say, we were rather underwhelmed. Too much too sweet filling, the choux themselves getting old very quickly (although we were told that you could eat them until the next day), the different flavours very alike.
So, a definite No. Sorry. (Oh, and they are definitely not the next macarons.)
