16/08/2026: 🕊️ UPDATE 08/14/2026 — The Turtledove has returned to one of its favorite nests… but this time, a few feathers were ruffled! 🪶😅
After being closed for about a month for renovations, naturally, curiosity got the better of it: the Turtledove simply had to come and discover this brand-new, beautiful, and spotless bakery. ✨
And indeed, the decor has definitely been revamped.
But upon arriving in front of the pastry display…
🤦♀️ The Turtledove had a serious sense of déjà vu!
Because let's be clear: for me, this remains one of the best bakeries and pastry shops in Antibes. The quality and expertise are there, and it's precisely because I appreciate this establishment so much that I'd like to see it push its boundaries even further.
It had been a while since I'd been back, and I was hoping to take advantage of this reopening to discover some new creations. Unfortunately, I found a selection of pastries very similar to what I already knew.
And after a while, even when the products are excellent, seeing the same items over and over again gets tiresome.
🕊️ So, La Tourterelle is issuing a little challenge: now that you've refreshed the shop... why not breathe new life into the display case? 🪺✨
New creations, some seasonal pastries, limited editions, bolder combinations... surprise us! You have the skill to do it.
Especially since, without naming names 😉, some of our colleagues nearby aren't afraid to take risks, refresh their offerings, and regularly pique our curiosity.
🪶 The Turtledove's verdict: the talent is still there, the quality too… but now she'd like some new treats to nibble on!
The Turtledove will therefore continue to settle in this nest she loves so much… but now she's waiting for someone to surprise her. 🕊️🥐🪺
