In the Beaulieu district, an artisanal pastry shop places art at the heart of each creation. Every gesture follows a precise and controlled intention.

A Pastry Chef Trained in Great Kitchens

Trained in prestigious houses, Nicolas Flandin carries the high standards of great restaurants. His career includes the Restaurant de l’Hôtel de Ville de Crissier, alongside Franck Giovannini. He brings to Lausanne a sensitive, contemporary and perfectly balanced vision. In his shop, each dessert highlights nature and the accuracy of flavours. Elegance remains essential, always legible and never ostentatious.

A Sincere and Thoughtful Indulgence

The chef envisions a neighbourhood shop at the level of a great restaurant. The produce becomes the common thread, and emotion remains the goal. His approach celebrates technique, the beauty of shapes and indulgence without unnecessary effects. Everything revolves around a simple yet rare idea. The creations touch as much by their sincerity as by their perfection.

The collection combines pastries, confectionery and chocolates with precise flavours. Nature inspires each creation, from vanilla to honey and citrus.

The Creations of the Nicolas Flandin Pastry Shop

Here, precision meets emotion with every bite. Le Flocon offers a vanilla caress, carried by an almost airy lightness. With its contrasting textures, Le Miel reveals a luminous mandarin and honey freshness. Le Saint-Ho’ reinvents the classic with an intense chocolate, balanced by a mild, roasted hojicha. The lemon tart asserts a lively personality, with a lime and ginger cream under an airy meringue.

Caracs, Teddy Bears and Filled Bars

The caracs combine chic, silky ganache and delicate crunch, always impeccably glazed. On the confectionery side, the teddy bears cultivate a nostalgic indulgence with soft marshmallow under a thin shell. The filled bars play subtly between crunch, melt and chocolate intensity. They promise an elegant and unapologetic pleasure.

A Gourmet Encounter in Two Stages

Two visits and several tastings turn this discovery into a true gourmet encounter. Each creation confirms the chef’s talent, thanks to precise and perfectly mastered combinations. Textures and flavours are balanced with accuracy. Creativity and attention to detail charm with every bite. The pairings between pastries and drinks work wonderfully. They reveal the depth and coherence of a unique world. Lovers of fine pastry also enjoy the house of Acarré (in French). The creations of Édouard Henry (in French) are also worth discovering.
