Pâtisserie de Choisy is a genuine institution in Paris 13th arrondissement. Small local gem for generations, it welcomes regulars and curious people craving to discover Asian specialties. A tasty good deal attracting sweet-toothed and savory-toothed foodies.
Among the flagship creations, there is the Hong-Kong egg tart available with durian as well.
You can also find several pastries based on sponge cake including a very flavorful Pandan Malaiko.
Among the pastry staples, there are sweet puff pastries with salted egg inside available with soy cream, coconut, taro, red bean, and even durian. It may sound weird but it is absolutely delicious.
There is also a Chinese specialty very little know in France, the Wife Cake, also called lovers' cake. Puff pastry cake based on watermelon and sesame.

You will also find many sorts of warm turnovers, savory puff based on meat or vegetables, and very crunchy taro fritters.
Pâtisserie de Choisy also provides whipped cream cakes, particularly coveted on birthdays.
All year around, the store adapts to festivities with traditional treats. For instance, for the Lunar New Year, it provides Lo Bak Go (radish cake) and “Gâteau du Bonheur” that could be roughly translated as “Happiness Cake”.
