I wanted to try ALL of Hugo & Victor's creations after my first visit to its Boulevard Raspail boutique. (Read about it here.)
So I was ecstatic when I discovered they have another outlet while I was walking around Marche Saint Honore.
In this boutique I was allowed to take photos
Macarons
Chocolates and semi-spheres
Tarts
Such a beauty! *insert whistle here*
I wasn't able to try ALL as planned, but I was able to wolf down two in one sitting, while seated at a random block of cement outside the shop.
At Hugo & Victor, pastries are classified as "Hugo" or "Victor."
Hugo is new, modern and exciting.
Victor is traditional, but with a twist.
The Hugo Fig
Nectar fig infused with spices, fig jelly, almond milk jelly, hazelnut dacquoise
The Victor Fig
A very pretty religieuse filled with fig cream traced with fig jam
When eating pastries as good as Hugo & Victor's, I skip the spoon and attack with my hands.
