Sweet tooth? Us too. Follow along!

• Ladurée; Paris, France; Laduree, on the Champs Elysées, is one of Paris’s most elite pastry shops created in 1997 and decorated with the same atmosphere of Laduree Royale. This world famous bakery represents the French Art de Vivre, and although you may have seen the product before, it’s work is worth the stop by for afternoon tea and exploring this high society treat. Historically, this Parisian café and pastry shop gave birth to one of the first tea rooms in Paris. The ”salon de thé,” or tea room located in the upstairs lobby, had a definite advantage over the other cafés of its time; women could gather in complete freedom. This pastry shop has become a beacon of antique French, sweet beauty.
