Julo, the patisserie that delights the 10th arrondissement

Julo is the name of the patisserie that opened its doors at 52 rue de Lancry in the 10th arrondissement. At the helm are 3 reconverted partners who met on the benches of Ferrandi: Isabelle, Charles and Anne-Sophie. While Charles and Anne-Sophie took their CAPs to work on commissioned artisanal pastries, Isabelle trained in the laboratory and went on to take her chocolate CAP as a bonus. A year and a half ago, they decided to launch a joint business. Freshly opened, it's time to try it out.

Julo is, in a way, the image of a popular patisserie that wants to be a little more quali. They chose this Parisian street, ideal for their target market. In this patisserie, you'll find classic creations, revisited by the 3 partners. The emphasis is on good products, like the vanilla in the Parisian flan, which smells of Tahitian vanilla. The house uses seasonal, short-lived products. The tarts are adapted to the fruits of the moment.

The patisserie also offers chocolate bars from the Cluizel chocolate factory. A company chosen for its ethics and the quality of its products.

Julo also offers a small range of viennoiseries that are a little different from what you'll find elsewhere. As we pass by, we discover a square apple turnover with homemade seasonal fruit compote. There's also a popular buckwheat kouign amann, a fig puff pastry and a chocolate puff pastry.

The pastries on offer included Maya, a Mexican chocolate entremets on a crisp bed, La Marguerite in a lemon tart, the regressiveAnimata with caramel, vanilla and a regressive peanut praline, and Antonin in a creamy, well-vanillaized custard flan. The tart of the moment was blueberry, just like the turnover of the day. Of course, there's always room for the indisputable Paris-Brest .
