Berko cupcakes… the problem with them is that they look delicious but unfortunately they are not.
The big ones are too dry, and don't look that fabulous when you look at them with attention.
Moreover, most of them are only yellow cakes and have no interest except tasting the icing.

I would love to have a good camera and go and take pictures of the BEST cupcakes in Paris which you have not mentioned yet.
Made with love and passion, by a very young and enhtusiastic team, they definitely worth the try and I like them better that Berko's or Cupcakes & co's.

The pictures are just beautiful, but like Justin I wonder how tastey they are. Sometime the prettier they are the less taste. But thanks for sharing all of the beautiful photos. The pictures have inspired me!

Buon appetito,

Carmela

There is something special about the frosting on these cupcakes, it might just be the brightness, but it looks like they have a different texture too. I wish I could taste one so I could pick what it is! Thanks for sharing the pretty pics!

The texture of the frostings look almost like gelato. It doesn't look like buttercream. Looks more like a 10x sugar and butter frosting with fruit puree and food coloring. Anyone know?

In defense of the French, cupcakes are a relatively new dessert here in Paris. There is only a handful of us that make them at the moment.

The majority of Parisian cupcakeries are run by French people who turn out cakes made for the French palate. Their base recipe is more in-line with what is known as a quatre quart (equivalent of a poundcake in the US) so a much drier cake than we Americans are used to.

Personally I like a moister cake -- it's what I grew up on. But the French are very proud of saying that what they sell is a cupcake with a "French touch" so I guess more adapted to what people eat here.

I'm back :) no, I'm not talking about Cup and Cake (I don't know this cupcakery). I have not got the chance to try them yet, as they seem to be available only by groups of 12 ! (I love cupcakes, but not that much :P )

The cupcakery I'm talking about is "Coupe Foudre", and it's located in rue de Montreuil, in the 11th arrondissement.
After comparing their cupcakes to Berko's and Cupcakes and Co's, I must they definitely are my favorites !

Each day at Coupe Foudre comes with different cupcakes, according to the baker's inspiration, and they are very nice young cupcakes passionates.

You can check their website : http://www.coupefoudre.fr

I hope you will discover new fun cupcakes in Paris thanks to me !
