Impressive newcomers to the pastry scene that deserve recognition

An exquisite example of the new wave of innovative bakeries shaking up the Parisian pastry scene, from couple Solenn Le Squer & Thomas Padovan who make every product with personal love and care. Frappe sells a wide range of artisan breads and pastries as well as its signature Frappe croissant roll - rounds of flaky croissant full of flavored crème pat. Does the name Le Squer ring a bell? Solenn is the daughter of Christian, legendary chef at Le Cinq at Hotel Georges V, while baker Thomas Padovan has worked at Georges V, Plaza Athénée, and Ducasse restaurants in Paris and New York.
