Reviews of interest

Le Figaro (2011) Ranked #3 in their test of the city’s best strawberry tarts.

Gilles Pudlowski (2010) “Comme j’avais méchamment égratigné sa religieuse de rêve (au chocolat et au café)…On l’a goûté en famille et le verdict fut unanime: belle présentation, élégante et brillante,pâte fraîche, sans doute un brin épaisse (mais c’est une pâte à chou sur pâte sucrée),crème pâtissière parfumée, onctueuse avec un goût net et franc de chocolat amer.”

Dorie Greenspan (2009) “Among the most fanciful cakes is this one from Dalloyau.  Dalloyau is most famous for its Gateau Opera, and this year the centuries-old pastry house has kept its connection to the stage and created La Prima Donna, a raspberry-vanilla-and-citrus cake dressed in mandarine meringue.”
