We travel full time and I am always on the lookout for a French bakery. La Gourmandine is my absolute favorite! They offer a selection of delectable pastries and breads. Get there early because they sell out during busy times or place an order in advance to guarantee. Perfect harmony of flavors, textures and aromas. Their Croissant Amandes are to die for! When in Pittsburgh their cakes always accompany us visiting family and friends. In the pictures are Tarte Citron, The Marquise: Chocolate mousse, crème brûlée, vanilla sponge and crunchy caramel yum! The last is Pistachio. If you’re in Pittsburgh you have to visit!
La Gourmandine is a local French bakery chain, and it is definitely one of the best in the area. My husband and I have really enjoyed every tart and croissant that we have bought from them. They also sell sandwiches, quiches, cakes, and breads, which I might someday try. I think that the prices are very reasonable for the high quality. The employees have promptly and politely greeted me, carefully packaged my foods, accurately processed my payment, and thanked me and wished me a great day. The only negative about this business is the location in an area that has street parking and lots of traffic.
We ordered a half-sheet Frasier cake as a 'thank you' to the teachers and staff at our daughter's school. We received great feedback and we heard that the cake was the talk of the school that day. It looked stunning and we were told it was delicious too. So this prompted me to order a small one for us to try. The cake was light and delicious and was nothing like any cake I had tried before. Hoping that we can try the other cake varieties soon.
