Indulge in Storher's delights
Founded in 1730 by Nicolas Stohrer, King Louis XV's pastry chef, Maison Stohrer embodies the excellence of French pastry. For nearly three centuries, this gourmet institution has perpetuated a repertoire as rich as it is iconic, from baba au rhum to traditional religieuses, as well as puits d'amour and delicate sweet and savory tarts. Discover this exceptional heritage in our À la Mère de Famille shop, where these emblematic creations will charm you with their refinement and authenticity.
A gourmet stroll on the Left Bank
The 6th arrondissement reveals a Paris full of charm, where every step invites you to stroll.
