Forêt Noire Pâtisserie

Delicious choices especially their elegant chocolates. The good thing is they bake everything fresh. I had a cappuccino it was pretty decent.

I tried this for the first time while visiting Vancouver. When I went there, it was close to evening and not many individual cake options were there, so I tried these three: broadway, versace and praline to share with my kids as the other options had coffee in the ingredients. I am not a dark chocolate person, so I didn’t like broadway much though it seems very popular. Praline was little too sweet for me. We liked versace most, it was perfectly sweetened, melted in the mouth and the look was so soothing. I am hoping to try the other varieties when I am in Vancouver again.

We've been supporting them since they opened and frequent the place every week. Service is always hit and miss depending on who you get but the pastries are great. We decided a few weeks back to buy gift cards for friends and family so they can enjoy the pastries. This is where my biggest negative experience happened and I felt compelled to share this. They sell gift cards and allow you to reload, however they make you spend the whole amount of the gift card at one time. So if you have a $100 gift card and want to go enjoy a latte and pastry, you CAN'T!! You supposedly have to use the whole $100 gift card all at once. The owner didn't even tell us this when we bought multiple gift cards. I've never heard of a gift card system like this before. Seems like they are making up their own rules so it's more convenient for them. This is such a dishonest business practice and makes us feel ripped off. Now anyone with a gift card that has a high amount, needs to buy a whole cake or multiple pastries that they won't be able to finish on their own. BRUTAL!!!!!!

Beginning the day with something sweet I’m always excited when I visit a bakery full of treats and cakes. Forêt Noire Pâtisserie is modern version of a French Patisserie. They have very unique creations and offer many seasonal treats that take advantage of what nature offers The interior is very eye catching and puts your senses in excitement as you see the display of desserts. Here’s what I tried: ?Strawberry tart ?Misteri ?Exotic Flower I was there later in the day, so the selections were limited due to what was remaining. Amazingly, all their desserts are winners and you can’t go wrong with any of their choices. Each is beautifully crafted and have their unique flavours. The Exotic Flower was one of my favourites. It’s made with mango mousse, praline feuilletine, coconut dacquoise, fresh mangoes, while chocolate chantilly, and passion fruit cremeux. I just love the refreshing and citrusy flavours from the mangoes and passion fruit. This is my perfect taste of the summer The Misteri was another lovely creation with cherry compote, lychee cremeux, and barries blossom tea mousse. I appreciate the very smooth textures and complexity of the flavours that blended harmoniously. The strawberry tart is a must for the berry lovers. The fresh strawberries were complimented by a nice crunchy texture from the pistachios. The tart shell was buttery with the right amount of firmness Overall, @foretnoirepatiserrie offers an excellent selection of desserts with great creativity and high quality ingredients! I would recommend their cold Spanish latte to go with all these scrumptious cakes and desserts. IG:vancityh

One of the best cake & dessert places I’ve been too. Top quality & flavours and beautiful presentation. Clean and chic interior, with very unique store decor. Mille-Feuille (10/10): caramelized puff pastry was super buttery and flaky. The cream inside wasn’t too sweet, and had a strong vanilla flavour (I can also see the black speckles of real vanilla beans in the cream). Salted Caramel Chocolate Tart (9/10): loved the thick tart crust (had a bit of a charred/dark chocolate taste). I prefer the cream from the Mill-Feuille, but overall, still a great tart with a sweet & salty balance. Caramelized hazelnuts on top. Mango Panna Cotta (9/10): strong mango flavour (not artificial tasting). I wasn’t really used to the texture of the vanilla rice pudding underneath, but the mango portion was great. Pricing: about $10+ per cake (quite reasonable considering it’s a good portion, and high quality).

5 Star Cakes here. Its like eating a cake straight off of one of those professional baking shows. It's worth the cash for those extra special occasions. (Photo shown is of the white chocolate pistachio cake. Look at those balanced layers!)

Absolutely overpriced!!!! Comparing with the out cake shop nearby. They are selling $10 CAD per cake with supermarket quality. I would like to use it to compare with those Costco cake. I’m no kidding, come and try, I promise that you will leave a review same like me.

Everything I've tried here is excellent. They are offering hot breakfast on weekends and it's definitely worth a try. The one I got had sausage, omelet, 2 slices of bread, roasted tomato, and potatoes. Flavors were on point. I also got some pastries and cakes for take out. We tried the exotic flower, opera and bamboo. Loved the flavors for all of them. Will definitely try more when I am in the area. The place is chill and staff is very helpful. Chef even took the time to explain the cakes to me as I was looking for something that has more sponge component. Come check out this place. You won't regret it.
