If you haven’t tried one of @julienplumart iconic macarons or éclairs, you’re truly missing out—it’s an absolute must!

If you haven’t tried one of @julienplumart iconic macarons or éclairs, you’re truly missing out—it’s an absolute must! Easily some of the best I’ve ever had and available at his @julienplumartcafe on Queens Road

As a finalist on Bake Off: The Professionals (and, in my opinion, unfairly robbed of the win!), Julien’s expertise speaks for itself. His pâtisserie creations are nothing short of exceptional, and I recently had the pleasure of visiting his shop to indulge in a few treats- both to enjoy on the spot and to take home

One of my favourite traditions is picking up the legendary brunch box for my husband every Valentine’s Day—it’s always a hit and better yet it’s available all year round and available on Deliveroo too!

I recently had the chance to try the éclairs, and each one was incredible. My personal favorite was the signature Pistachio Éclair, adorned with the Julien Plumart logo. Not only is it visually stunning, but the flavour is out of this world

For Valentine’s Day, Julien Plumart always goes the extra mile to create the perfect gift for a loved one. From beautifully presented cheesecakes and macaron gift boxes to the thoughtful addition of a rose with purchases, the attention to detail is unmatched

The brunch box I usually get for my husband includes a hot drink, a savory croissant, a pastry, and a macaron of your choice—all for just £13.50 when picked up in-store. It’s such great value and never fails to impress!

Whether you’re looking for a special gift or simply a well-deserved treat, you can’t go wrong here. The craftsmanship, flavour combinations, and presentation are truly magnificent. I’ve had my eye on the afternoon tea for a while now, and after hearing such rave reviews, I definitely need to try it soon!

Conveniently located just south of Brighton Train Station, Julien Plumart’s patisserie is an absolute must-visit. If you haven’t been yet, add it to your list—you won’t regret it!
