The pastry case: how to choose a dessert to go with coffee
Éclairs, tarts or cream pastries — a small guide for anyone facing the choice.
Strong black coffee goes well with desserts of pronounced flavour: chocolate tarts, nut pastries or caramel. They are not lost next to the slightly bitter drink.
Cappuccino or latte suits lighter desserts: fruit tarts, vanilla-cream éclairs, macarons.
If you cannot decide, ask for two small pastries instead of one large one. It makes it easier to find your own pairing.
