L'Essentiel is now 5 bakeries-pastry shops in Paris and in the Paris region that combine tradition and modernity. No concessions on quality and taste, regularly rewarded for their breads, these 4 addresses have what it takes to seduce the most demanding in terms of sourdough breads, pastries and gourmet pastries.

The Boulangerie l'Essentiel is first and foremost the story ofAnthony Bosson who became a companion of duty at the age of 21, after a 7-year apprenticeship, passing through Paris, Tours, Strasbourg, Lille, Blois, Nîmes and Nantes. Thanks to this great adventure, he acquired a taste for good things and tradition that he perpetuates through his bakeries. In 2009, he opens with Nadine in charge of the management, his first bakery-pastry shop in the 13th, boulevard Auguste Blanqui.

With their success, they then opened 3 other locations on rue Mouffetard, Tolbiac and Daumesnil. Since August 2022, a small last one in Clamart has opened. Of course, they always keep in mind the essential: the quality of their products and creations. They were awarded the prize for the best organic bread in Paris 2019 with a 2nd prize for the traditional baguette and the prize for the Best Bakery in Ile-de-France in 2022.

Each l'Essentiel bakery-pastry shop has its own identity. We discover a beautiful range of products entirely home-made, from leaven to praline. Artisanal method, knowledge and beautiful team of passionate persons in charge. As for the pastries, it is the chef Nicolas Fouquet who proposes greedy recipes worked with simplicity and authenticity.

We have tested the bakery-pastry shop several times and one thing is clear, it is a treat every time. In spring, don't miss the beginning of the strawberry pie season. A crispy shortcrust pastry, a mascarpone-vanilla cream, good tasting French strawberries and a bergamot confit for pep, we are at the Essential.

Then, we don't miss the classics which are delicious and well proportioned. Flan, Paris Brest or even Saint-Honoré, we enjoy ourselves. Then come the ephemeral creations for certain events.

In January, we enjoy the excellent king's cake with frangipane which is just as we want and the chocolate and citrus brioche.
