I've been waiting for this video for such a long time, so happy it's finally out! #delicioussssssss

how the hell are all these amazing pastry chefs who deal with pastry and chocolate all day so skinny?????

You have to admit: the French know how to enjoy life.

Never mind the cakes, Cedric is drop dead gorgeous!

🍩🍨She doesn’t break her smile throughout the entire video 🍫😄❣️🌰

In Heaven you can eat all kinds of French pastries without getting fat

Think I gained 20 lb just from watching this but I soooo wanna go to Paris now🥰🇮🇪

En París cada pastel es como una pieza de joyería que cuidan hasta el último detalle. Me encanta. In Paris, each cake is like a piece of jewelry that take care of every last detail. I love

I literally just got tears in my eyes....I want to go here so badly and LEARN all the things 😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍

I love her. She is so cute and humble......really enjoy watching her show and seeing her cooking sweets😂😘

I ate nothing but dessert in Paris when I visited. I was poor at the time and had to choose between regular food and dessert.😂

My favourite part of this video is when she tastes the amazing lemon tart at Karamel. As a pastry student, it's always good to hear what makes a good product stand out and Kirsten's advice on different textures and layering has helped me with product ideas and gaining those extra few marks in my upcoming assessments!

Thanks for the video..I am drooling watching all those beautiful dessert

I can 100% vouch for the hot chocolate at Angelina. This was one of the "must-see" destinations on my Paris travel list when I went there. Be sure to order the "ancient recipe" hot chocolate off the menu. It is simply the best hot chocolate I have ever had.

The sheer joy and happiness you exhibit while indulging in your addiction to food is fantastic. Like a junkie getting high. Just don't ask me how I recognize it though :)

My favourite moment was the spoon cracking through the beautiful chocolate of the coffee dessert from La Meurice! Mouthwatering.

Simply, marvelous!! What a wonderful tour of exceptional artists. Kirsten is a gem!!!!!

I can almost taste them! Thanks to the way Kristen describes the taste and textures ❤️

Just booked my kids first trip to Paris. I cant wait until they taste these magical creations.

Wow ! I wish I was there to share in all the wonderful things you have tasted in Paris ! I love Paris ! Thank you for your video ! It let me live through you !

My favorite moment would be the Orange and Almond pastry at Pierre Hermé. Looks delicious!

Paris ♥️ food,architecture,fashion...is it another place like this in this world?

I can't pick a favourite moment but I just love watching the joy as you bite into the products for the first time..... it is awesome

Oh my gosh I wish I had watched this before my trip to Paris last August. Can’t wait to go back and go to some of these places.

My favourite moment is every unboxing of the petit gateaux and eclair and her breaking down every element of the dessert (and her apology to lauduree for the not loving the eclair!!)

Your honest review is much appreciated.

Thank you so much Kirsten, for this amazing video!

My favourite moment is watching Kirsten eat all the delicious pastries!

The Eclairs in this video are probably my favorite thing! I’m a pastry chef from Louisiana and would love to get the opportunity to go one day. Thank you for sharing your experiences and work with us

Hello Kirsten, came across your channel via this video.... thank you for sharing your experience and guidance! Much appreciated!

Fabulous video. Wonderful to see such “art”. Exquisite! You did a fabulous job. Thank you so much.

Amazing Video! Thank you for your beautiful outlook on these wonderful places and pastries! Much love from Brazil!

My favourite moment of this Paris video was when you compared the various macarons. Very insightful for those who don't know which famous macarons to try first!

OMG im drooling over here! great video! new subscriber! xx

I liked that you gave honest reviews. This video is comprehensive and impressive!

Thank you for such a great delicious episode! 😍🥰🥰 When I go to France , I'm definitely going to visit those! 🤗🤗

I am French and a culinary blogger, passionate about French pastries. Congratulation, I think you have made very good choices (many famous French pastries have dropped in quality, you haven't fallen into this trap), just exception about "Ladurée" and pastries of "Angelina" (hot chocolate is good). "Michalak" is my favorite pastry. :) You have to try the bakery "Des Gâteaux et du Pain" (best croissants but pastries are very good too). And you will love "Nicolas Bernardé" further of Paris, the God of cakes (but cakes for 6 persons minimum). Other pastries I love : "Sébastien Dégardin", " La Goutte d'Or", "Jean-Paul Hévin" (chocolatier), "Mori Yoshida" (french pastries by Japanese people).

OMG you lucky girl. Doing exactly what you are doing in this video is on my bucket list. 😔Unfortunately, I probably will not live long enough to experience these beautiful pastries🥮. So thank you for making this video. I may not get to ever taste them but at least I get to see them.😊

Thank you for this excellent presentation. Your commentary, enthusiasm and knowledge inspire!

How I wish I could travel and taste all these delicacies with you!! Just so awesome ❤✨💫

Thanks you so much....I actually try a few of those pastries.....but your video show so much more....so excited for my next visit to Paris ....merci beaucoup....and your French accent is si cute..I’m French Canadian.....😘

This is seriously the best video. Thanks for doing it!

Kriten, I loved the way you took me around Paris, and that to, to all the pastry shops. You are a born commentator, and so knowledgeable about chocolates. Enjoyed every bit, especially the lemon tart.

THANK YOU SO VERY MUCHO! UNBELIEVABLE PASTERIES! SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU ENJOYING THEM!

Oh my god, you have met so many of my favourite French pastry chef. My favourite moment in the video was when you met Cedric Grolet and tried his PARIS-Brest. One of my favourite dessert too. What a privilege to have met all of them. I love every video that you post on KZfaq. You are such an inspirational pastry queen in Australia.

This is one of my favorite videos ever!

Our berries and cherries are growing nicely for you Kirsten. Love your yummy creations

Thank you Kirsten. My mouth is watering .

How am I suppose to pick my favourite part! I loved the whole video! I particularly enjoy how you educate us on terminology and origins of the pastries. For example, I didn’t know where the name Paris-Brest came from. The lemon meringue tart looked absolutely beautiful. I am feeling so inspired now! I plan to travel to Paris sometime in the coming year and will 100% make sure to use this video as a reference and visit every single store! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Been looking for someone who would know to give me some recommendations on Paris patisseries, now I just need to book my ticket....Paris here I come. Thanks for another great video.

Fabulous video! Thanks so much, Kirsten!

So good video! Those French pastries and chocolate make me want to eat them,! Learning about French and found this video! Perfect for learning!

What a journey! Noted that boutique patisseries take pride in presentation as we see the fancy boxing. But being practical and still enjoying French gastronomy is what many of us enjoy. Can you make a video on local favorite 'budget' pastry shops in the future? I know they're out there! Your (Burberry) scarf is lovely!

You are so great at explaining the different items and give such interesting information on their history. Love that you give an honest review too, not just saying everything is 'yum' lol. New subscriber here! Did just want to say, imo there is no such thing as 'lady-like' :p can be whatever you want it to be! No less of a lady chowing down on an eclair

Been to some of these shops...yum! Love to see this...thanks for sharing! The French do make the best chocolate! If you take me along next time I can help you with the french pronounciations.

Extremely insightful video. Can’t wait to check your suggested locations out next month!

i love Paris and the food, dessert, pastry basically EVERYTHING AT THERE ! 💕 hopefully one day i'll get a chance studying pastry and live there 🤩☺❤❤❤ i love you 💕

Kirsten, Frank, and Cedric!!!! My top favourite pastry chefs in one video. What did i do to deserve this!?! 😂😂😂

Omg. How can anyone decide. They all look so good. Thank you for sharing

I love watching Kirsten living her best life!

3 years ago almost to the day I was in Paris and wish I had this as a reference!!! 🤤 Even to visit one of these amazing places!

My favorite part was at 17:50 when you ate the millefeuille. It was satisfying to see it cut so easily with the plastic knife. I bet it would be great with fresh raspberries.

Love the simple presentation of the eclairs, such a classic it never goes out of trend and they are delicious too.

Totally amazing! Thank you for this beautiful video!

You and the sweets look so great!

This video makes me smile. Bon appetit.

Thank you for making this beautiful video. I have bookmarked all the places you mentioned. I would love to visit those patisseries.

I really like how she eats the items. Can't wait to visit France.

Best bit is your descriptions of all the goodies! Absolutely drooling!!! 🤤 #foodporn

The French really do it well great video, getting insight into the philosophies of these great pastry chefs. Thanks

Oh my gosh!! How to choose a favourite? Paris brest, Millefuille, lemon tart... yum!!! What a dream to try them.. desserts are my favourite. Beautiful video. Thank you.

AMAZING VIDEO!! CAN’T GET ENOUGH OF IT!! Also can’t wait to go to Paris and try these perfections in shape of sweets 🤩😍🤤

Really hard to pick just one special moment in this video. I love chocolate so I was amazed with the Patrick Rogers packages, also the way you explained about important characteristics of chocolate at Alan Ducasse shop. The perfect shiny chocolate, the snap, the temperature... Wow! But honestly the textures of the lemon tart almost made me bite the screen! Omg just fabulous! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

One of the best reviews of Parisian patisseries, bravo et merci!

A true inspiration I could never be as artistic but I love to wow my family with your creativity .

Kirsten, thank you, this was so enjoyable to watch, a beaufull video and wonderful narration.Let me assure you that your “self sacrifice” in tasting all these pastries and recommending the various patisseries is much appreciated. I’ll be visiting Paris later in the year, now I have even more to look forward to 😋

I love when she visit yann couvreur. I would love to visit his shop too and eat some of his pastry !!! The choclate one 😍😍😍😍

Everything looks appealing and delicious to eat enjoy it thank you for sharing

Kirsten, you are killing me. I love the Savour Patissier of the Year live Facebook feeds and find an excuse to sit at home every year. I have been to a couple of courses at Savour and bought most of the products in the store. INext time I'm in Paris I'm following your path. You are amazing!!

I went to all of these places and they are great ! We are very lucky to have all this in France

The Paris Brest from Cedric Grolet was my favorite because it's a classic from all times

I loved this video. It´s quite refreshing. The fact that you describe so gracefully what you like and don´t like from each bakery. Thank you

Thank you so much, I am going to Paris next year and was looking for recommendations, fabulous and look forward.

Kirsten, the most confusing thing to me, would be which patisserie pastry I chose first! Love this video. What elegance. ..xxx

Only reason I went to Paris was to eat desserts.. No other city has these many choice of desserts.. Every moment of time spent in Paris was bliss

Thank u soooo much for making such a lovely and nice video. It is really helpful! Definitely will try some of pastries in Paris. It is really enjoyable to watch your video!

so, Mr Michalak is my new Pastry Hero and Visionary. And i Thank You for that.

Wow, I'm blessed to have this in my recommendations!

Really lovely video - you mentioned many of my favourite places... 🙂 could you make one based in Australia, please? 👍😉

Thank you so much for your videos! I’ve just discovered your youtube channel, but after watching only a minute or so, i knew I wanted to subscribe and watch all your videos! Thank you, especially for your relaxed attitude and approachable focus on sharing your (obvious) immense knowledge and love for the subject! You help us to learn so much, just by bringing us along on your adventures! I look forward to learning from your cooking tutorials also, but right now I am thinking another trip to Paris is in my future! Thank you so much for your time and knowledge. Such a gift to us all!

Thanks Kirsten, I enjoyed the tour so much!

My favourite moment was when you were reviewing the desserts🤤🤤

Her pronunciation is absolutely hilarious but shes so charming all is forgiven!

Excellent criteria for deciding the TOP. I also enjoyed the inclusion of historical tidbits, or how to taste a chocolate. Not new to me, but so worth mentioning. Thanks

I love how you featured Alain Ducasse and Roger Patrick! This is a must for me on my trip to Paris next year!

You should mention the prices as well

Awesome video! Favourite part "it's always awkward and very unlady like to eat an eclair” 😂

Kirsten what a great vlog. Really enjoyed all the places you visited

You are very knowledgable it was an eye opening pleasure to watch your show I plan to visit some of those amazing establishments myself now thanks !

Pronunciation from a native French speaker: - LE Meurice, not LA Meurice. - Pierre Hermé without an "s" at the end (or else he becomes Hermès lol) - The PH flavour is Ispahan like the city in Iran. Is-Pa-Han for the French pronunciation, Is-Fa-Han for the English. - Criollo is CREE-O-LO - Ladurée is La-Du-Ray, not La-Ju-Ray - Patrick RO-GEY lol not Roger he's French - Meilleur OU-VREE-YER de France But otherwise, its amazing video and amazing selection of products, and your comments are great, detailed and honest.
