Le Bateleur sur Vaison-La-Romaine

28/09/2024: Very large selection of cakes and macarons of very good quality. There are also always changing seasonal tarts. The service is friendly and patient, as it is difficult to make a decision given the many delicious products. Currently recommended are the apple caramel tart and the brownie ball with pistachios.

25/09/2024: In Vaison-la-Romaine, this town where every stone breathes history, hides a sweet sanctuary, a place of worship for initiated taste buds: the Peyrerol patisserie. Pronounce this name in a low voice and you will see the eyes of the locals light up with lust and the smiles appear like greedy confessions. Today, rather than describing the sumptuous display of golden pastries, fine chocolates and ice creams with surprising flavors like blueberry or violet, let me tell you about a tiramisu that is as daring as it is refined. Imagine, first of all, a light mascarpone cream, soft as a caress, neither too sweet nor too strong. Each spoonful plunges into a fragrant cloud, subtly “punched” (I have always loved this culinary term ☺️) of a coffee syrup with deep aromas, flirting with the intoxicating notes of alcohol, without one or the The other never dominates, like a discreet whisper. It’s a delicate waltz between the voluptuousness of mascarpone and the measured intensity of coffee, in short: a perfect harmony. Then, on top, crunchy shards of lightly roasted pecans dance. Their woody, almost caramelized flavor awakens the senses, contrasting with the creamy sweetness to provide an apotheotic finish to each bite. It’s this little grain of madness, this crispy texture that enhances the whole thing, like the final touch of a pastry masterpiece. We then close our eyes, we let the flavors blossom on the palate, we savor this perfect alchemy, this marriage between tradition and innovation, signature of the Peyrerol house. Peyrerol is, for me, much more than a pastry, it is an experience, a tribute to the senses, a place where each treat becomes a declaration of love for life. Special mention to the staff, as kind and smiling as they are efficient. In short, you will have understood, I will come back… for other flavors. Thank you to the whole team this Wednesday afternoon, September 25…
